Leone announced his retirement from professional baseball last week, Scott Eisberg of WCIV in Charleston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leone's 2024 season ended when he was diagnosed with a UCL sprain in his right elbow. It's not clear whether he underwent surgery, but either way the 33-year-old has decided against pitching again after he recovers. Leone appeared in parts of 11 major-league seasons for nine different teams, finishing with a 3.94 ERA and 444:192 K:BB over 429 innings.

The White Sox diagnosed Leone with a UCL sprain in his right elbow and placed him on the 60-day injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Leone was lifted from Wednesday's game with soreness in his right elbow and further testing revealed he suffered a UCL sprain. Instead of attempting to rush him back during the closing weeks of the regular season, the White Sox opted to place Leone on the 60-day injured list, ending his 2024 campaign. The 32-year-old appeared in 23 games for Chicago, logging a 6.63 ERA and a 17:14 K:BB across 19.0 innings. Matt Foster (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Leone was removed from Wednesday's game against the Yankees due to right elbow soreness, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leone was only able to get through one-third of an inning before his elbow forced him out of the game, during which he gave up two earned runs on two hits and two walks. He'll head in for further evaluation Thursday, at which point the White Sox will have a better idea of how long the 32-year-old will be sidelined.

The White Sox reinstated Leone (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Leone had been on the shelf since May 20 due to right elbow inflammation, but he'll slot back into the White Sox bullpen after making four rehab appearances at Triple-A Charlotte. Before he was shut down with the injury, Leone compiled a 7.04 ERA in 15.1 innings. He'll likely have to settle for low-leverage work out of the bullpen now that he's healthy again.

Leone (elbow) is scheduled to make a rehab appearance with Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leone, sidelined since May 20, has been cleared to return to game action. It's unclear how long his rehab stint will last, but it appears he has the chance to return by late July or early August.

Leone (elbow) is expected to pitch for Triple-A Charlotte within the next day or two, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was reported over the weekend that Leone was nearing a rehab assignment, and skipper Pedro Grifol confirmed Monday that Leone would report to Triple-A for his first action since being placed on the 60-day IL with right elbow inflammation. The right-hander hasn't made an appearance since May 24, so he'll need at least a few innings of work in the minors before being activated.

Leone (elbow) has begun the ramping-up process and could begin a rehab assignment during the week of July 22, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leone has been sidelined since May 24 and has managed only 15.1 total innings this season. He should only require a couple of rehab appearances before rejoining the White Sox's bullpen.

The White Sox transferred Leone (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Leone landed on the injured list in late May due to right elbow inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL ensures he'll be sidelined through the All-Star break. The 32-year-old still does not have a timetable for his return, and his spot on the 40-man roster will be given to Drew Thorpe, whose contract was selected from Double-A on Tuesday.

The White Sox placed Leone on the 15-day injured list Friday with right elbow inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

Leone returned from a bout of lower-back tightness this week but will return to the injured list after making just one appearance for Chicago. It's unclear how long the veteran right-hander is expected to be sidelined.

The White Sox activated Leone (back) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Leone wound up needing just a minimum stay on the IL with lower-back tightness and will skip a rehab assignment and go right back into the bullpen. The veteran reliever holds a 6.75 ERA and 14:11 K:BB over 14.2 innings this season.
