Foster (back) elected free agency Monday. The White Sox removed Foster from their 40-man roster and he has chosen free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment. Foster finished the 2024 season on the injured list with a back injury and it's not clear what his current health situation is.

Foster was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday with a lower-back disc herniation. The move is retroactive to Sept. 12. Foster has given up two runs in 3.2 innings over four appearances since getting recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Sept. 3. Jake Eder was promoted in a corresponding move.

The White Sox recalled Foster from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports. Foster made two scoreless appearances last month during his first stint in the big leagues since he had Tommy John surgery in August 2023. The right-hander will offer interim manager Grady Sizemore a fresh relief arm after he used his bullpen to cover 4.2 innings in Monday's loss to the Orioles.

The White Sox returned Foster to Triple-A Charlotte after Wednesday's doubleheader versus Texas. Foster threw two scoreless innings while serving as Chicago's opener in the nightcap, giving up two hits and a walk while recording a strikeout. He'll now return to the minors and continue to serve as organizational bullpen depth, though given his effectiveness in both the majors and Triple-A, there's a good chance he makes another appearance for the White Sox before the end of the year.

Foster was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday. Foster was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Friday after making a full recovery from Tommy John surgery, and he'll be sent to work in the minors after making one appearance with the big club. He tossed a scoreless frame Friday against Houston, collecting one strikeout and a hold in the process.
