Vinny Capra has been sent outright to Triple-A Charlotte after being designated for assignment by the White Sox. He had not previously been outrighted and lacks three years of MLB service, preventing him from declining the assignment. Acquired via waiver from Milwaukee in May, Capra struggled offensively, posting a .190 batting average and a .205 on-base percentage over 23 games. He made a notable appearance in a game where Clayton Kershaw achieved his 3000th strikeout. To return to the majors, Capra will need to improve in Triple-A, especially with the current struggles of the White Sox's infield roster.
Vinny Capra has been sent outright to Triple-A Charlotte after being designated for assignment, marking his first outright as he lacks three years of MLB service.
Capra hit .190 with a .205 on-base percentage in 23 games for the White Sox after joining the team on a waiver claim from Milwaukee.
Despite a rough outing, including going down looking for Clayton Kershaw's 3000th strikeout, Capra has a strong Triple-A batting line of .271/.366/.384.
The White Sox's middle infield now features rookies Montgomery and Meidroth, who has struggled significantly, opening a potential path for Capra's return to the majors.
