Shaky control in Tuesday's loss Clevinger (5-6) took the loss Tuesday, giving up four runs on six hits and four walks over five innings as the White Sox fell 6-3 to the Mariners. He struck out four.

Impact The veteran right-hander also plunked a batter and uncorked a wild pitch, and he managed only nine swinging strikes among his 97 pitches. Clevinger saw his brief quality start streak end at two, but his 4.5 BB/9 over his last three outings suggests his luck was due to run out. Even so, he sports a 2.57 ERA and 1.14 WHIP since coming off the injured list in late July, and he's served up just two homers in 28 innings over that stretch. He'll try to get back on track in his next start, likely to come at home this weekend against the A's.

Let down by bullpen Wednesday Clevinger settled for a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out seven batters over seven scoreless innings.

Impact Clevinger was dominant in the outing, holding the crosstown rivals without an extra-base hit in a season-high seven frames. He departed with a a three-run lead but lost his chance at a victory when the White Sox's bullpen gave up three ninth-inning runs. Clevinger nonetheless finished with his second consecutive quality start, and he's allowed just one run while posting a 13:5 K:BB over 13 frames during that stretch. The veteran will look to keep rolling in his next matchup, which is projected to come at home against Seattle.

Tosses quality start in victory Clevinger (5-5) earned the win over the Yankees on Wednesday, allowing one run on three hits and three walks while striking out six batters over six innings.

Impact Clevinger was staked to a 4-0 lead early and cruised to his fifth victory. The only run against the right-hander came on a Giancarlo Stanton RBI groundout in the fourth frame. Clevinger finished with his first quality start since May 17, and this was his longest outing since he was activated July 29 following a lengthy stay on the injured list. The veteran hurler has pitched well since his return, posting a 2.25 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 11:4 K:BB over 16 innings covering three starts.

Yields four runs in loss Clevinger (4-5) allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits and a walk over five innings Friday, striking out two and taking a loss against Cleveland.

Impact Clevinger gave up a pair of runs through four innings before serving up a homer to Andres Gimenez in the fifth. Clevinger threw 9.2 shutout frames in his previous two starts. Including Friday's loss, he's posted a 2.37 ERA over his last six outings. Clevinger will carry a 3.72 ERA into his next matchup, which is projected to be at home against the Yankees next week.

Blanks Guardians in return Clevinger (4-4) picked up the win Saturday, scattering two hits over five scoreless innings in a 7-2 victory over the Guardians. He struck out three without walking a batter.

Impact Making his first start since June 14, Clevinger was sharp in his return from bicep inflammation, retiring 10 straight batters at one point and not letting any Cleveland runners get into scoring position. The 32-year-old right-hander got the hook after 72 pitches (53 strikes), and the early exit may have had less to do with his workload and more that the White Sox were concerned a late fade would hurt his market value. Clevinger's next outing could well come in another uniform as Chicago ships out veterans and expiring contracts ahead of the trade deadline.

Activated ahead of Saturday's start Clevinger (biceps) was activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start Saturday against the Guardians.

Impact He did not go on a rehab assignment and will look to impress potential trade suitors ahead of Tuesday's deadline. Most recently, Clevinger completed a four-inning simulated game, so he could go deep enough to qualify for the win. The 32-year-old righty has a 3.88 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 53 strikeouts in 62.2 innings this season.

Slated to return Saturday Clevinger (biceps) is slated to rejoin the White Sox' rotation Saturday versus the Guardians, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Clevinger cleared a final rehab hurdle with a four-inning simulated game Monday and has recovered without any issues. He will be skipping a rehab assignment after missing more than six weeks of action with right biceps inflammation.

60 pitches in next session White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Thursday that Clevinger (biceps) will get up to 60 pitches in his next throwing session, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Grifol didn't divulge when or where it will take place, but it will be on the heels of a three-up, three-down bullpen session Wednesday during which the manager said Clevinger "felt good and he looked good." Theoretically, the 60-pitch session could be Clevinger's final test before he rejoins Chicago's rotation, although the team has not confirmed as much.

Throwing off mound Clevinger (biceps) is slated for a three-up, three-down bullpen session Wednesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact It will come after a successful bullpen session Sunday during which Clevinger said it's the hardest he's throwing in a 'pen session since spring training. While it's unclear whether he will require a rehab assignment first, Clevinger appears to be trending in the right direction. He's been out since mid-June with right biceps inflammation.

JULY 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Throwing on flat ground Clevinger (biceps) has been throwing on flat ground from up to 90 feet out, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact The plan is for Clevinger to throw his first bullpen session before the All-Star break, another one during the break and then pitch a simulated game shortly after the break before returning to the White Sox's rotation. There are no plans for a rehab assignment just yet, but skipping one would increase the chances Clevinger returns before the end of July. The 32-year-old righty holds a 3.88 ERA and 1.36 WHIP on the year and has been on the shelf since June 14 with right biceps inflammation.

JULY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out through All-Star break Clevinger (biceps) will not return before the All-Star break, MLB.com reports.

Impact Clevinger has been sidelined since June 14 and there have been very few updates on his progress since. Manager Pedro Grifol ruled Clevinger out from returning before the All-Star break, but there's no guarantee he'll be ready to return in mid-July.

Aiming to throw this week White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said Monday that he's hopeful Clevinger (biceps) will be ready to resume throwing by the end of this week, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Impact Clevinger departed a start last week with right biceps inflammation and was subsequently placed on the injured list. The hope seems to be is that he'll need only a minimum stay on the IL or close to it, but a clearer picture of his status won't be available until the right-hander ramps things up again.

Lands on injured list The White Sox placed Clevinger on the 15-day injured list Friday with right biceps inflammation.

Impact After being removed from Wednesday's start against the Dodgers, Clevinger will now officially miss a few more turns through the White Sox's rotation. An IL stint was expected, although it's unclear if Clevinger will need to spend more than the minimum amount of time on the injured list. Jesse Scholtens was brought up from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move.

Avoids structural damage Clevinger has no structural damage to his arm after exiting early from Thursday's start against the Dodgers, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Clevinger was forced to exit the start after 4.2 innings, though he described the results of follow-up exams as the "best news possible." It's likely that he'll still land on the injured list, though manager Pedro Grifol said no determination has been made yet.
