McRae was outrighted to Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
McRae made a pair of major-league relief appearances in the first half of May, allowing one run in two innings of work. He's been pitching for Charlotte since getting set down in mid-May and will continue to do so, though he's now one step further from returning to the big leagues. The move clears a spot for Jace Fry (back) to return from the 60-day injured list.

McRae was recalled by the White Sox to serve as the 27th man for Friday's doubleheader against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
McRae has already spent two separate stints on the big-league roster. He's made just a single appearance, striking out one and walking one in a scoreless inning against the Reds in early May. If he makes another appearance Friday, it will likely come in a lower-leverage spot.
