GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — The Chicago White Sox
have released Brandon Drury from his minor league contract after
the veteran infielder fractured his left thumb.
The White Sox also claimed right-hander Mike Vasil off waivers
from the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday. Right-hander Gus Varland was
optioned to Triple-A Charlotte, and right-hander Prelander
Berroa was placed on the 60-day injured list.
The 32-year-old Drury, who can play second base, third base and
the outfield, hit .410 with three homers and 11 RBIs in spring
training. He agreed to a minor league contract with Chicago on
Feb. 7.
Vasil, who turned 25 on Wednesday, is looking for his big league
debut. He was selected by the New York Mets in the eighth round
of the 2021 amateur draft out of the University of Virginia.
The 6-foot-5 Vasil was picked by Philadelphia in the Rule 5
Draft in December and then traded the same day to the Rays in
exchange for cash.
The 24-year-old Berroa had Tommy John surgery last week. The
procedure was performed by Dr. Keith Meister.
