White Sox Send Jonathan Cannon to Triple-A
The Chicago White Sox announced on Friday that they optioned right-hander Jonathan Cannon to Triple-A Charlotte and recalled right-handed pitching prospect Wikelman Gonzalez from Charlotte in a corresponding move. Cannon gets the boot from Chicago's starting rotation after going 4-9 on the year with a 5.34 ERA (5.25 FIP) and 1.46 WHIP with 76 strikeouts and 35 walks in 96 innings over his 19 appearances (17 starts) in his second major-league season. The White Sox had seen enough after Cannon had allowed at least five earned runs in each of his last three starts. The 25-year-old gave up a season-high seven earned runs on four hits (two homers) in just 1 2/3 innings in his most recent outing on Wednesday against the Mariners. It's unclear who might take his spot in the rotation.
