DENVER — He’s glad to be back where it all began but that doesn’t mean Tommy Kahnle forgets the ups and downs he experienced with the Colorado Rockies. A Rule 5 selection by Colorado in 2014, Kahnle has had a stellar 2017 season with the White Sox despite not breaking with the team out of camp. Kahnle, 27, spent two seasons with Colorado before the White Sox acquired him after the 2015 season. The right-hander said he thinks he has much better sense of how to be a big leaguer than he did with the Rockies after enduring a tough 2015 campaign. “Failure,” Kahnle said. “This is definitely where I experienced (that).

DENVER -- Avisail Garcia is sidelined yet again, but thinks he’ll be ready in time for Tuesday’s All-Star Game. Free and clear of the knee injury that sidelined him for five days, the White Sox outfielder said Friday that he plans to return to the lineup by Sunday after he jammed his finger during his second at-bat on Wednesday.
