Edgar

Navarro

No real surprises here as Colás figured to be edged out of contention for an Opening Day roster spot after an influx of talent during the offseason. Meanwhile, Quero and Bush represent a pair of top prospects on the verge of making it to the big leagues relatively soon. It’s a bit surprising to see Eder heading back to Double-A, but he’ll get plenty of innings there to open the year.

Navarro appeared in 8 games for the White Sox and posted a 7.27 ERA with 9 strikeouts across 8 2/3 innings last season. After the season, he was sent outright to Triple-A Charlotte. Navarro wasn’t expected to have a major role for the White Sox this season, but it’s a tough blow for the 25-year-old.

The White Sox needed to clear a spot on their 40-man roster for Erick Fedde, and it looks like Navarro was the odd-man out this time around. The 25-year-old hurler registered a 7.27 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 9/2 K/BB ratio across 8 2/3 innings with the big league club during the 2023 season. He’ll continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the White Sox at the Triple-A level.

The 25-year-old hurler struggled in eight appearances with the White Sox, posting a 7.27 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 9/2 K/BB ratio across his 8 2/3 innings of work. He’ll continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the White Sox at the Triple-A level. Deivi Garcia was recalled in a corresponding move on Monday.

It’ll be the second big-league stint with the 25-year-old Navarro, who allowed two runs in three innings last time he was up. He had a 4.28 ERA and a 38/28 K/BB ratio in 40 innings for Charlotte.

Navarro was called up in late July and wound up making a pair of relief appearances for the White Sox. The 25-year-old righty heads back to the minors with closer Gregory Santos returning ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Yankees.

Navarro gets his first call-up to the majors in the wake of the White Sox selling ahead of the trade deadline. The 25-year-old righty has pitched to a 3.32 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 39/30 K/BB ratio across 43 1/3 innings (35 appearances) this season between Double-A Birmingham and Triple-A Charlotte.
