Eder was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte prior to Friday's game against the Athletics.
Once a promising prospect in the Marlins' system, Eder had Tommy John surgery in 2021 and hasn't recaptured his pre-surgery combination of wipeout stuff and starter-level command. He has a 9.87 ERA and 1.99 WHIP in 34.2 innings across nine starts for Charlotte. Eder will work in one-inning relief appearances, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com.

White Sox's Jake Eder: Sent to Charlotte
Rotowire
The White Sox returned Eder to Triple-A Charlotte after Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Twins.
Eder joined the White Sox as the 27th man for Wednesday's twin bill, though he will now return to the minors without appearing in a game. However, his move to Charlotte will act as a promotion of sorts, as the 25-year-old southpaw had spent the entire season with Double-A Birmingham prior to Wednesday.

White Sox's Jake Eder: Sent down to Double-A
Rotowire
Eder (shoulder) was optioned to Double-A Birmingham by the White Sox on Friday.
Eder almost surely wasn't going to make the Opening Day roster anyway, but he's been sidelined recently with soreness in his right (non-throwing) shoulder. Acquired from the Marlins in the Jake Burger trade last year, Eder will be part of Birmingham's rotation once healthy.

White Sox's Jake Eder: Joins 40-man roster
Rotowire
The White Sox selected Eder to their 40-man roster Tuesday, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.
Eder posted an ugly 6.35 ERA over 56.2 minor-league innings in 2023, but the White Sox acquired him from the Marlins in the Jake Burger trade and didn't want to lose the 25-year-old left-hander in the upcoming Rule 5 Draft.

White Sox's Jake Eder: Traded to Chicago for Burger
Rotowire
Eder was traded from the Marlins to the White Sox on Tuesday in exchange for Jake Burger, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.
Eder is coming off his best start of the year for Double-A Pensacola, in which he struck out 10 batters and allowed one earned run in 5.2 innings. He underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2021 and has a 3.94 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 38 strikeouts in 29.2 innings across six starts at Double-A, although his fastball velocity has been more in the low-90s, rather than his pre-surgery mid-90s fastball. Eder's best pitch is a plus slider, and improving his changeup and command will be of focus over the coming seasons. He could reach the majors sooner with the White Sox than he would have in Miami, given the depth of both organizations.

Marlins' Jake Eder: Active at Double-A
Rotowire
Eder (foot) gave up three earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out two over 4.1 innings in his first start for Double-A Pensacola.
He showed similar rust (4.66 ERA, 1.55 WHIP) in three rehab starts in the Florida State League before being activated from the injured list last week. Eder suffered a broken foot right when he was about to return from Tommy John surgery this spring, so he ended up missing 23 total months of action between the two injuries.

Marlins' Jake Eder: Returning to mound Sunday
Rotowire
Eder (foot) will make his first start of the 2023 season for Single-A Jupiter on Sunday.
It'll be the first start for Eder since 2021, as the southpaw underwent Tommy John surgery that September and also broke his foot while rehabbing this spring. The 24-year-old left-hander was sensational in the 2021 campaign with a 1.77 ERA and 99:27 K:BB and 0.98 WHIP over 71 innings. He could be a rotation option for the Marlins in 2024 if he shows the same stuff and command he did two years ago.

Marlins' Jake Eder: Expected back in June
Rotowire
Eder (broken foot) is expected back in mid-to-late June, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
The big 6-foot-4 southpaw broke his foot in a freak accident off the field during spring training. Eder, who underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2021, is very advanced and could move quickly through the upper levels once he's healthy.

Marlins' Jake Eder: Recovering from broken foot
Rotowire
Eder is recovering from a fractured left foot and will open the year at Double-A Pensacola once healthy, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
Eder was going to be make his much-anticipated return from Tommy John surgery this spring, but a fractured foot will delay things for the big southpaw. He excelled in 15 starts at Double-A in 2021 prior to needing surgery, so Eder could get a bump to Triple-A this summer once he knocks some rust off.

Rotowire
Eder (elbow) is feeling 100 percent and doesn't have an innings limit set for spring training, Fish on the Farm reports.
Eder will likely be monitored closely as he nears his first live action since undergoing Tommy John surgery in August of 2021. The 24-year-old has only played one year of minor-league ball in the early stages of his career, as he spent the 2021 campaign with Double-A Pensacola and turned in a sparkling 1.77 ERA and 0.98 WHIP with a 99:27 K:BB over 15 starts (71.1 innings).

Marlins' Jake Eder: Nearing mound work
Rotowire
Eder (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Friday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery in September, MLB.com reports.
Eder's recovery from surgery appears to be on track thus far, but the Marlins are unlikely to have him pitch in anything other than simulated games before the minor-league season comes to a close. The 23-year-old lefty could be a candidate to get some innings in during the Arizona Fall League or instructional ball, but the Marlins' main focus will likely be in ensuring he's ready to go for spring training with no restrictions. Before getting surgery, Eder dazzled in his 15 starts at Double-A Pensacola, turning in a 1.77 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 99:27 K:BB across 71.1 innings.
