He had a 3.05 ERA in 59 appearances in 2021, and posted a 4.60 ERA in 2022, with 68 strikeouts in 60.2 innings of work.
The White Sox are playing the Pittsburgh Pirates in the rubber match of a three-game series at PNC Park on Sunday, then will head to Minnesota to take on the Twins at Target Field for a three-game set beginning Monday.
