CHICAGO -- Chicago White Sox right-hander Lance Lynn thinks he is ahead of schedule in his recovery from right knee surgery.
Lynn was pulled from his final start of spring training with right knee discomfort, one of a series of injuries for the reigning AL Central champions already this season.
Third baseman Yoan Moncada is out with a strained right oblique and ace right-hander Lucas Giolito is on the 10-day injured list due to a lower abdominal strain. Relievers Joe Kelly (right biceps nerve injury), Garrett Crochet (left elbow surgery) and Ryan Burr (strained right shoulder strain) also are on the IL, along with outfielder Yermin Mercedes (fractured left wrist).
