Padres Acquire Ron Marinaccio From White Sox
The San Diego Padres announced on Friday that they acquired right-hander Ron Marinaccio from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for cash considerations. The New York Yankees designated Marinaccio for assignment earlier this offseason before the White Sox claimed him off waivers. The 29-year-old reliever will now head to the National League West, where he'll hope to win a Opening Day roster spot out of spring training in 2025. The former 19th-round selection by the Yankees in 2017 out of the University of Delaware made his major-league debut in 2022 in the Bronx and has a 3.22 career ERA and 1.19 WHIP with two saves and 137 strikeouts in his 114 2/3 relief innings in the big leagues. Marinaccio had a 3.86 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 25:10 K:BB in 23 1/3 innings in 2024 in New York. He'll merely represent bullpen depth for the Friars in 2025.
