The Chicago White Sox have designated right-hander Ron Marinaccio for assignment as they formally announce the signing of left-hander Martín Pérez. Marinaccio, who was claimed from the Yankees, hasn't played for the Sox and had been maintained on optional assignment since late 2024. Despite having strong strikeout rates, Marinaccio struggled with control, reflected in a 12.6% walk rate over his career. His ERA in the majors is decent at 3.22 across 114 2/3 innings, but his performance in the minors shows both promise and inconsistency. This designation prompts questions regarding his future in MLB, with a week ahead for potential trade talks.
