March 26, 2025 1:59 PM : The White Sox reassigned Karinchak to minor-league camp Wednesday.
Analysis: Karinchak was erratic during Cactus League play, striking out 11 but also walking nine and allowing eight runs over eight innings. He could eventually get a shot in a White Sox bullpen that lacks talent, but for now, the 29-year-old will pitch at Triple-A Charlotte.
