Created: Thursday, June 7, 2012 6:24 p.m. CDT

(MCT) — Triple-A Charlotte outfielder Jordan Danks is headed to Chicago to join the White Sox in time for Thursday night's game against Toronto, a source confirmed.

Danks, the younger brother of Sox left-hander John Danks, batted .302 with 15 doubles, eight home runs and 28 RBIs for Charlotte. The younger Danks hit a three-run home run Wednesday night at Toledo.

Danks, 25, took the roster spot of outfielder Kosuke Fukudome, who left Sunday's game because of a ribcage injury. Danks will wear jersey number 20.
