White Sox claimed 1B Michael McDade off waivers from the Indians; optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte.

McDade was designated for assignment by the Indians late last week. The 24-year-old was off to a slow start with Cleveland's Triple-A affiliate, but he hit .285/.360/.445 with 19 home runs and an .806 OPS between Toronto's Double-A and Triple-A affiliates last season. He'll function as organizational depth. May 7 - 2:19 PM

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Indians designated 1B Michael McDade for assignment.

The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Ezequiel Carrera. McDade, who is batting just .230/.313/.284 with no homers at Triple-A this season, will probably pass through waivers. Then again, he used to be a Blue Jay, so it's always possible Alex Anthopoulos will claim him.

May 2 - 6:10 PM

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Indians optioned 1B Michael McDade to Triple-A Buffalo; reassigned INF/OF Nate Spears to minor league camp.

Neither had a real shot to win a roster spot. A waiver claim from the Blue Jays earlier this offseason, McDade will be the first baseman at Buffalo.

Mar 15 - 11:37 AM

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Indians claimed 1B Michael McDade off waivers from the Blue Jays.

McDade, 23, batted .285/.360/.445 with 17 homers and an .806 OPS in 118 games this year between Double- and Triple-A in 2012. He'll compete for a bench job this spring.

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Blue Jays designated 1B Michael McDade for assignment.

McDade earned a spot on the 40-man roster last fall, but he gets the boot after batting .285/.360/.445 with 17 homers and an .806 OPS in 118 games this year between Double- and Triple-A. The 23-year-old could draw some interest on waivers.

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Blue Jays recalled 1B Michael McDade from Triple-A Buffalo.

McDade batted .285/.360/.445 with 17 homers between Double- and Triple-A this season. He'll return to Triple-A in 2013.

Fri, Oct 5, 2012 12:33:00 PM

Michael McDade - 1B - White Sox

Blue Jays purchased the contract of 1B Michael McDade from Double-A New Hampshire.

A former sixth-round pick, McDade .281/.328/.457 with 16 homers over 484 at-bats for New Hampshire this season. He'll need to progress more at the plate to turn into a real prospect, and the Jays are willing to let him occupy a spot on the 40-man roster to see if he can do just that.

2B	1	Gordon Beckham D.L. Gordon Beckham isn't playing Friday with Triple-A Charlotte due to soreness in his surgically-repaired left hand. Beckham had surgery in mid-April to remove the hamate bone from his hand, so the White Sox don't want to take any chances. He's expected to be held out of action until next Wednesday at the earliest.

	2	Angel Sanchez D.L. CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the White Sox have placed infielder Angel Sanchez (back) on waivers. Sanchez, a Rule 5 pick, has been on the disabled list for a little over a month with a lower back strain and is seven games into a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte. If he goes unclaimed, he will be offered back to the Angels. May 23

Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Chris Sale Sidelined Chris Sale has been scratched from Wednesday's scheduled start against the Red Sox due to mild tendinitis in his left posterior shoulder. It's obviously a tough break for Sale's fantasy owners, but the good news is that the move is viewed as precautionary and he's expected to be ready to start next Tuesday. Hector Santiago will get the ball Wednesday in Sale's place. He'll be pitching on three days' rest. May 21
	2	Jake Peavy
	3	John Danks
	4	Gavin Floyd D.L. Gavin Floyd underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament and flexor muscle in his right elbow. The surgeon told the White Sox that the operation "could not have gone better." However, since he needed two major areas operated on, the recovery is expected to be 14-19 months rather than the standard 12 months for Tommy John surgery. With that timetable, Floyd probably shouldn't be counted on for a whole lot in 2014. He'll be a free agent over the winter. May 8
