Prior to being placed on the disabled list on May 28 due to right elbow inflammation—which additional testing indicated was caused by a neck injury—Clevinger, 33, had made four starts for the White Sox this season.

With a 6.75 ERA, the right-hander will conclude the season with a 0-3 record.

With a 3.77 ERA in 24 starts, Clevinger had a respectable season with the White Sox in 2023. In April 2024, he signed a $3 million, one-year contract to rejoin the team.
