Pelfrey signed a minor-league contract Wednesday with the White Sox, Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The White Sox were lacking in rotation depth heading into spring training, and that was only magnified further once Carlos Rodon (biceps) succumbed to an injury in spring training that forced him to the disabled list. As a result, Pelfrey was added to help address that deficiency, but he'll have to prove his worth with Triple-A Charlotte before getting a look in the big-league rotation. Dylan Covey would seem most vulnerable to losing his spot in the rotation if Pelfrey is eventually added to the big-league roster.
