The White Sox have designated infielder Jose Rodriguez for assignment, as first reported by Francys Romero. Romero suggests that Rodriguez will be put on waivers, though Sox Machine’s James Fegan indicates that the organization will first seek a potential trade partner. Presumably, Rodriguez’s DFA will clear the way for right-hander Mike Clevinger to return to the Sox. Clevinger agreed to a one-year deal to return to Chicago earlier in the week.
More to come.
