The Chicago White Sox have placed left-handed pitcher Martin Perez on the 15-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation. Perez exited a recent game against the Boston Red Sox after struggling through three innings. Manager Will Venable expressed the team's need for Perez's contributions both on and off the field. This season, Perez holds a record of 1-1 with a 3.15 ERA. In his place, Jared Shuster has been recalled from Triple-A Charlotte, having performed well in the minors this season.
We need Martin," White Sox manager Will Venable said on Friday night. "We need the things that he does on the mound, the things that he does in the clubhouse."
Perez, 34, is 1-1 with a 3.15 ERA in four starts this season, his first with the team since signing a one-year, $5 million contract.
