The White Sox made a pair of roster moves ahead of Tuesday night’s game vs. the Yankees.
According to an afternoon press release, right-handed pitcher Gregory Santos has been reinstated from the Bereavement List and right-hander Edgar Navarro has been optioned back to Triple-A Charlotte.
Santos, 23, was placed on the Bereavement List on Saturday. He has gone 2-0 with a 2.75 ERA (16 ER/52.1 IP), two saves, and 52 strikeouts over a team-high 47 games this season. Arguably the best reliever left on the active roster, the White Sox will become Santos back with open arms after their trade deadline selloff.
Navarro, 25, made two relief appearances with the Sox after his contract was selected from Charlotte on July 29. He finished with a final line of three innings thrown, five hits, two earned, five strikeouts, and one walk.
Following the move, the White Sox’s active roster remains at 40.
