White Sox Release Garcia, Add Colas to Opening Day Roster.

The Chicago White Sox have released utilityman Leury García and selected the contracts of outfield prospect Oscar Colás and veteran infielder Hanser Alberto. García had a disappointing 2021 season and struggled in Spring Training, leading the Sox to eat the remaining $11MM on his contract. Colás is expected to see the bulk of right field playing time and is now positioned to make his MLB debut. Alberto is a high-contact hitter who’s best deployed against lefty pitching and can play throughout the infield.

The Chicago White Sox will start the season without closer Liam Hendriks, who is undergoing treatment for non-Hodgkins lymphoma. The team is leaving open the possibility of his return within the first two months of the season. The team is also considering Oscar Colas, Eloy Jimenez, or Romy Gonzalez for the first start of the year in right field.

"Roster Moves: White Sox and Red Sox Look to the Future"

The Chicago White Sox are set to move on from Leury García, their longest-tenured player, who is not on the Opening Day roster and has had his locker cleared out. García's career with the White Sox was marked by inconsistency and a lack of initiative from the front office to find more promising options. The team owes him $11.5 million despite cutting him. The move may indicate a desire to improve the outfield and upgrade the team's depth. Hanser Alberto and Romy González are potential replacements.

White Sox make roster decisions ahead of Opening Day.

The Chicago White Sox have informed outfielder Oscar Colas that he will make the Opening Day roster, while veteran utility player Leury Garcia will not. Garcia's versatility has made him a valuable bench player over his 10 seasons with the team, but his offensive struggles in 2022 and the emergence of other utility options made him expendable. Meanwhile, Colas, who signed with the team for a $2.7MM bonus in 2022, is expected to make his MLB debut after hitting .314/.371/.524 with 23 homers across three minor league levels last season.

"White Sox Make Tough Roster Cuts Ahead of Opening Day"

The Chicago White Sox will not include utility player Leury Garcia in their Opening Day roster, according to sources. Garcia, who signed a three-year, $16.5 million contract before last season, struggled throughout the 2022 season, and the Sox will eat the remaining two years on his deal. The team is expected to include prospect Oscar Colas as the right fielder, infielder/outfielder Romy Gonzalez, No. 2 catcher Seby Zavala, outfielder/first baseman Gavin Sheets, and infielder Hanser Alberto on the bench. Right-hander Gregory Santos is expected to make the bullpen.
