Eligibility
The White Sox have recalled Mike Clevinger from Triple-A Charlotte.
Fantasy Impact
Clevinger signed with the White Sox at the beginning of April and has been with Charlotte getting ramped up. The veteran posted a 3.77 ERA in 24 starts last season.
Mike Clevinger is expected to make his season debut on Monday against the Rays.
Fantasy Impact
It is not confirmed, but what is expected barring a surprise. Clevinger has made two starts in Triple-A, so he may not be completely stretched out.
The Chicago White Sox are increasingly speaking about bringing back right-hander Mike Clevinger.
Fantasy Impact
Clevinger spent the 2023 season with the White Sox and worked to a solid 3.77 ERA across 24 starts, going 9-9- in that time. He had his club option declined by the team earlier in the offseason but it appears a reunion is possible with fellow righty Michael Kopech being moved to the bullpen.
The Chicago White Sox have declined their half of a 2024 mutual option on pitcher Mike Clevinger.
Fantasy Impact
Rather than pay the right-hander $12 million for the 2024 season, the White Sox decided to cut ties and pay Clevinger a $4 million buyout. He posted a 3.77 ERA across 24 starts with the club in the 2023 season.
Mike Clevinger went six strong innings with seven strikeouts and just two runs allowed against the Royals on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Clevinger continues to be a reliable fantasy option with his consistent strikeout numbers and solid overall performance this season. While his win-loss record may not be impressive, his ability to limit walks and generate swings and misses make him a valuable asset for fantasy owners.
