Asencio signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Thursday. |
Asencio didn't play affiliated ball last season, despite logging four relief appearances with the Orioles a season earlier. The 30-year-old owns a career 5.30 ERA over 56 MLB innings, which will probably preclude him from making many waves with the White Sox in 2015. Expect him to spend most of the season at Triple-A Charlotte. |
