Burger came up from Class AAA Charlotte to replace Moncada and gave the Sox's offense some needed power. by signing up you agree to our terms of service "We love Jake," White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said."Great guy. Great feel-good story, a guy we like to root for. He can hit. He makes us feel good when we're down. He could have hung 'em up and been out of baseball."
He missed the entire 2019 season with a bruised left heel and, when COVID-19 shut down the 2020 minor-league season, Burger was forced to make his comeback in the CarShield Collegiate League in his native St. Louis while also getting some work at the Sox's training facility in Schaumburg. Moncada needs to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before returning to the roster, so Burger appears to have at least another week before his fate is determined.
