Covey will not make his scheduled start Wednesday against the Twins due to shoulder soreness, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ivan Nova will throw an inning instead of his scheduled bullpen session that day, so it sounds like he may be the opener in a bullpen game. Covey is unlikely to return this season, according to Merkin.

Covey allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks over 3.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Friday. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
Covey was able to keep the ball in the yard in this contest, but a three-run first inning and a two-run single from Shed Long in the fourth were enough to end the right-hander's night fairly early. Covey now owns a 7.98 ERA and 1.76 WHIP across 58.2 innings this season. The 28-year-old is penciled in for his next start Wednesday versus the heavy-hitting Twins.

Covey (1-8) allowed seven runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out four over 2.2 innings in a loss to the Angels on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Shohei Ohtani touched him up for a homer and Covey has now given up six long balls in his last 13.1 innings at the major-league level. Covey got the start Saturday over Ross Detwiler. He had good numbers with Triple-A Charlotte this season (2.82 ERA, 1.33 WHIP) and it makes sense that the White Sox would want to give him one last chance to prove himself. Until he shows something more against top-level hitters, Covey's can't be considered a viable fantasy option.

Covey will start Saturday against the Angels, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Covey will replace the veteran Ross Detwiler. Covey is likely auditioning for a roster spot next season, though his 6.88 ERA on the season thus far doesn't make a great case on his behalf.

Covey was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Covey has struggled to a 6.88 ERA in 52.1 innings for the White Sox this season. His 51.0 frames for Charlotte have gone far better, as he's posted a 2.82 ERA. His role down the stretch is not yet clear.

Covey is expected to be called up from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Knights' season ended Monday when a loss to Norfolk eliminated them from a berth in the International League playoffs. That means the White Sox can start bringing up players, a list that is likely to include Covey, who started for Charlotte on Monday. He pitched to a 3.71 ERA and 1.57 WHIP over five starts following his demotion to the minors in early August. He's on the same schedule as current rotation member Ross Detwiler, whose spot is shaky following a six-walk performance in Monday's loss to the Indians. Manager Rick Renteria said there are no plans to change the rotation as of now, but Covey gives the manager options over the final month.

Covey was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte following Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader at Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Covey was recalled from Triple-A on Saturday and pitched in long relief during Tuesday's nightcap, allowing three runs on six hits over 2.2 innings. The 27-year-old has a 6.88 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 35:23 K:BB through 52.1 major-league innings this season.

Covey was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Covey spent less than a week in the minors, returning Saturday with Carson Fulmer (hamstring) landing on the injured list. Covey has had a rough time in the big leagues this season, recording a 6.99 ERA in 47.2 innings, though he owns an excellent 1.85 ERA in 24.1 frames for Charlotte.

Covey (1-7) allowed five runs on five hits and failed to retire a batter Sunday against the Twins. He was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte after the game, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Covey was rocked in the first inning of his latest start, surrendering five runs on a pair of homers before being removed. After accruing a 6.99 ERA and 1.62 WHIP with 31 strikeouts over 47.2 innings with Chicago, he'll head back to Triple-A.

Covey (1-6) allowed five earned runs on six hits and seven strikeouts while walking none across six innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Covey held the Marlins scoreless through three innings, but allowed four earned runs in the fourth inning -- capped by a two-run home run by Curtis Granderson. He did show some strong skills, with his seven punchouts backed by 14 called strikes and 12 swinging strikes. He threw 86 total pitches, his highest mark since May 31. He should be fully stretched out for his next start -- currently scheduled for Sunday against Minnesota -- during which he'll look to improve on his 6.04 ERA and 1.51 WHIP.
