White Sox Outright Rymer Liriano, Giovanni Soto

By Jeff Todd | March 31, 2017 at 2:13pm CDT

The White Sox have outrighted outfielder Rymer Liriano and lefty Giovanni Soto, the team announced (via MLB.com’s Scott Merkin, on Twitter). Both players cleared waivers and were assigned to Triple-A.

With four open spots on the 40-man roster, the club has the room needed to add non-roster invitees Cody Asche, Anthony Swarzak, and Geovany Soto (not to be confused with the similarly named reliever), Dan Hayes of CSN Chicago tweets. If those three make the active roster, as expected, the organization could have another spot to play with as teams around the league tweak their own rosters.

    Maybe grab Aneury Tavarez and give him a shot? Not much outfield depth right now, assuming Tilson starts the year on the DL.

    This move puts the 40 man roster at 36. Maybe a trade is being discussed. At a minimum, the Sox need to add Geovany Soto, Cody Asche and Anthony Swarzek to the 40 man roster. That would put it back to 39. Personally, I’m hoping a trade is in the works.

      Geovany Soto can go away for all I care. I would rather see the team add Kevan Smith and send Soto far, far away.

      I don’t think it’s a trade. Looking to see if anyone pops up on the waiver wire of interest (Tavarez?).

    Why not sign Pagan and flip him at the deadline?

      Honestly, they can play him in LF and put Melky at DH.

    I honestly don’t think they’d get anyone better than Tavarez for Pagan at the deadline… I’d rather give him the opportunity.

    Not to mention that if Pagan ends up being worth something more valuable, he’ll most likely be helping the team win some games, which is not what they need right now.

    I guess we won’t see Geovany Soto catching Giovanni Soto after all.

      A lot of guys in Charlotte will find their way to Chicago this summer.

      Geo Soto will catch Gio Soto at some point this season.

      After being battery mates this spring, southpaw reliever Giovanni Soto was essentially waived to make room for non-roster invitee catcher Geovany Soto on the White Sox 40-man roster. With the likelihood that the White Sox open the season with Dan Jennings as their only lefty reliever, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a Soto to Soto pairing again on the South Side at some point this season.

    Hopefully they have a better option than ex-Cub & AL journeyman Soto @ C.
