The Chicago White Sox have made several roster moves as they prepare for the upcoming season. They signed infielder Brandon Drury to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training, aiming to rejuvenate his performance after a disappointing 2024 season with the Los Angeles Angels, where he struggled with a .169 batting average.

In addition to Drury, the team claimed left-handed pitcher Brandon Eisert off waivers from Tampa Bay and secured a minor league deal with infielder Tristan Gray. Eisert made his major league debut last year, while Gray has seen limited action in the majors.

To accommodate Eisert on the 40-man roster, the Sox designated right-hander Steven Wilson for assignment. Wilson had a challenging 2024 season, posting a 5.71 ERA over 40 relief appearances. The White Sox also reported that outfielder Zach DeLoach cleared waivers and will be assigned to Triple-A Charlotte.

The Chicago White Sox have made a strategic move by acquiring left-handed pitcher Brandon Eisert from the Tampa Bay Rays via waivers. Eisert, 27, had a solid season with the Toronto Blue Jays' Triple-A affiliate, achieving a 3.86 ERA across 53.2 innings. He appeared in three games for the Blue Jays, posting an ERA of 4.05 and was subsequently traded to Tampa Bay for cash considerations earlier this year. In another roster adjustment, the Sox designated right-hander Steven Wilson for assignment after a disappointing season marked by injuries; he ended 2022 with a 5.71 ERA in 40 relief appearances.

Additionally, outfielder Zach DeLoach has cleared waivers and will be assigned to Triple-A Charlotte. The White Sox's recent transactions indicate a focus on reshaping their pitching lineup, with Eisert's addition and Wilson's departure highlighting the team's commitment to improving their performance on the mound.
