The Chicago White Sox have released right-handed pitcher Jesse Chavez, leaving 42 players remaining in camp. Following his release, the Minnesota Twins signed Chavez to address their bullpen injuries, providing additional depth with his experience. Chavez, 39, had a notable previous season with the Atlanta Braves, recording a 1.56 ERA and 39 strikeouts in 35 innings, and a 2.81 ERA over the past three seasons. Despite this performance, he found himself without a team until the Twins picked him up. Shortly after, the Atlanta Braves signed Chavez to a minor league contract, inviting him to spring training with 29 players now in camp, marking another chapter in his ongoing relationship with the team.
