The White Sox transferred Leone (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.
Leone was deactivated in late May due to right elbow inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL ensures he'll be sidelined through the All-Star break. As a result of the transaction, Leone will move off the 40-man roster and open up a spot for right-hander Drew Thorpe, whose contract was selected from Double-A Birmingham ahead of his first MLB start Tuesday in Seattle.
