The Chicago White Sox announced Tuesday night that right-handed pitcher Edgar Navarro will undergo Tommy John surgery in early March. MLB.com beat reporter Scott Merkin was among those to pass along the update on the reliever's health.
The White Sox have outrighted right-hander Edgar Navarro, with Scott Merkin of MLB.com among those to relay the news. The 40-man roster is now at 39 though their deal with righty Erick Fedde has yet to be made official.
The former top prospect is out of minor league options, so the Sox opted to designate him for assignment rather than continue to hold out hope for better results.
The Chicago White Sox are getting their best reliever back in the mix. After a three-day stint on the bereavement list, right-hander Gregory Santos returned to the club Tuesday.
