White Sox's Ron Marinaccio: Claimed by South Siders
Rotowire
The White Sox claimed Marinaccio off waivers from the Yankees on Monday.
The White Sox had the highest waiver priority of any team and used it to scoop up Marinaccio, who had been designated for assignment by the Yankees last Friday. Marinaccio has spent a large chunk of 2024 in the minors, but he's posted a career 3.22 ERA and 137:61 K:BB over 114.2 innings covering parts of three seasons in the majors. He's been optioned to Double-A Binghamton for the time being.

Rotowire
The Yankees designated Marinaccio for assignment Friday.
Marinaccio has collected a 3.86 ERA and 25:10 K:BB over 23.1 innings during his time with the Yankees this season. A career 12.6 percent walk rate is scary, but the 29-year-old also has a career 28.3 percent strikeout rate and is under team control for multiple seasons. He figures to draw interest via trade or waivers.

Yankees' Ron Marinaccio: Moves up from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Yankees recalled Marinaccio from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.
Marinaccio has previously made 14 appearances for the big club this season, logging a 2.53 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 22 strikeouts in 21.1 innings. Despite his strong ratios with the big club and at Triple-A (2.02 ERA, 0.99 WHIP in 35.2 innings) this season, Marinaccio could be limited to a low-leverage role out of the New York bullpen in September.

Yankees' Ron Marinaccio: Faces live hitters
Rotowire
Marinaccio (shin) faced Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Anthony Rizzo on Monday during his second live batting practice session of spring training, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
The right-hander was sidelined late in the 2022 season due to a stress reaction in his right shin and wasn't able to pitch during the Yankees' postseason run, but his ability to face hitters on two occasions this early in spring training suggests he's back to full health or close to it. When available in 2022, Marinaccio was effective, as he finished his rookie campaign with a 2.05 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 56 strikeouts across 44 innings. He'll likely settle back into a middle-relief or setup role for the Yankees to begin the 2023 season.

Marinaccio was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a stress reaction in his right shin.
Marinaccio has had a strong rookie season, posting a 2.05 ERA and a 30.9 percent strikeout rate in 44 innings of work. The injury means he'll end the season with those numbers and will remain unavailable for the ALDS, but it's possible he returns for the ALCS should the Yankees get that far.

Yankees' Ron Marinaccio: Departs with shin soreness
Rotowire
Marinaccio was removed from Sunday's game against the Orioles due to shin soreness, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Marinaccio didn't allow any baserunners while recording three outings between the seventh and eighth innings, but he was dealing with a shin injury that prompted his removal with one out in the top of the eighth inning. Manager Aaron Boone didn't sound too concerned about the issue after the game, so Marinaccio should be considered day-to-day for now.

Yankees' Ron Marinaccio: Claims first big-league victory
Rotowire
Marinaccio (1-0) earned the win over the Cubs on Friday, pitching a scoreless inning during which he allowed one walk and struck out one batter.
Runs were tough to come by for both teams in the contest -- so much so that neither the Yankees nor the Cubs were able to score through three extra frames despite starting off each of those innings with a designated runner. Marinaccio was responsible for fending off Chicago in the top of the 13th, and he did so successfully by retiring three straight batters after issuing a walk to begin the inning. The rookie right-hander was then credited with his first win in the majors when the Yankees walked off with a victory in the bottom of the frame. Marinaccio also has one hold this season, but he has been used primarily in low-leverage situations.
