Maikel Cleto: Released by White Sox on Thursday
Maikel Cleto was released by the White Sox on Thursday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.Cleto has been plagued by control issues during his times in the majors, and it appears that the White Sox have had enough of the reliever because of it. He is only 26 years old, though, and considering his solid showing with Triple-A Charlotte last season (3.00 ERA, 10.8 K/9), he could be swept up by another team very soon.
