The Marlins optioned White to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
White had a shaky major-league debut Sunday against the Mets, walking four batters, hitting one with a pitch and getting charged with five runs while recording one out. Better days are likely ahead for White, but he'll return to Jacksonville for now and wait for another opportunity.

Marlins' Josh White: Ready for MLB debut

The Marlins recalled White from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.
White had been one of the top relievers at Jacksonville this season, accruing a 1.24 ERA and 1.00 WHIP while striking out 30 batters over 29 innings. Consistently finding the strike zone has been an issue for the right-hander throughout his minor-league career, however, and after posting a 14.3 percent walk rate this season, White may not be asked to handle a high-leverage role.

Marlins' Josh White: Dispatched to Triple-A

The Marlins optioned White to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

Between stops with Jacksonville and Double-A Pensacola last season, the 25-year-old righty was one of the more dominant relief arms in the upper minors thanks to a deceptive high arm slot, finishing with a collective 1.86 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 107:23 K:BB in 67.2 innings.
