MINNEAPOLIS -- The White Sox added another rookie arm to their bullpen by recalling right-hander Jhan Marinez, who finished the season at Class AAA Charlotte with nine consecutive scoreless appearances.
Marinez was 4-2 with a 2.86 ERA, four saves and 65 strikeouts in 40 relief appearances for Charlotte. The 24-year-old ranked second among International League relievers in opponents average (.177). His 9.29 strikeouts per nine inning ranked fifth.
Marinez threw 1 2/3 scoreless innings in his only appearance with the Sox on July 13 at Kansas City. He was acquired as part of the compensation from the Marlins for manager Ozzie Guillen.
