Machi was acquired by the White Sox from the Mariners for cash, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machi is a well-traveled veteran reliever who was pitching at Triple-A Tacoma. For the White Sox, he's pitching at Triple-A Charlotte and could work his way up to Chicago if the team trades any more relievers.

Machi was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Machi was designated for assignment Saturday and is headed to Tacoma. Machi allowed just one run over 7.2 innings (five games) with the big club before being sent to Tacoma, but is coming off a 2016 campaign that saw him post a 5.12 ERA and 1.40 WHIP.

Machi was designated for assignment on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran reliever had a 1.17 ERA, but a measly 4:4 K:BB in 7.2 innings in the majors this season. This move opened up a spot on the 40-man roster for Saturday's starter, Ryan Weber.

Machi (1-0) fired a scoreless inning in Wednesday's 8-7 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Making his second appearance in as many nights, Machi was highly effective once again, disposing of Andrelton Simmons, Ben Revere and Cliff Pennington in 11 pitches. The 35-year-old right-hander has surrendered just one hit through his first three innings and looks like a viable multi-inning option out of the bullpen for manager Scott Servais thus far.

Machi had his contract purchased from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machi worked his way back to the majors after spending all of 2016 in the minor-leagues. The 35-year-old recorded four saves across eight scoreless appearances (eight innings) with Tacoma this season. Given he hasn't posted an ERA under five in the majors since 2014, he'll likely only be used in lower leverage situations.

Machi reported to the Mariners' spring training camp Saturday after being delayed by a visa issue, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machi will take a physical Saturday, but should return to normal spring training activities shortly. The 35-year-old signed a minor league deal in January and will likely serve as organizational depth to begin the season.

Machi will be late to camp due to a visa issue, Bob Dutton of the Tacoma News Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machi will likely be at camp soon, as it is just a paperwork issue that has kept him away. He signed a minor league deal with Seattle over the winter and will likely open the year in Triple-A as organizational depth.

Machi signed a minor league contract with the Mariners, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran reliever spent the 2016 season in Triple-A, splitting time with the Cubs and Giants while accumulating a 3.65 ERA across 61.2 innings in the process. He hasn't pitched in the Majors since 2015, where he struggled to a 5.12 ERA in 58 innings with the Giants and Red Sox. The soon-to-be 35-year-old will likely start the year out in Triple-A and offer organizational depth in the bullpen.

Machi was signed to a Triple-A deal by San Francisco on Thursday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Machi was released by the Cubs Thursday and was subsequently arrested that night for public intoxication. The Giants seem comfortable that the occurrence was not representative of any character issues, however, and signed him to a contract with Triple-A Sacramento. The 34-year-old will likely head there in the coming days and resume relief pitching.
