White Sox Place Luis Castillo on 15-Day IL Before Playoffs


The Chicago White Sox placed right-hander Luis Castillo on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder impingement and recalled right-hander Tyler Davis from Triple-A Charlotte. Chicago needed one win or a Texas Rangers loss to qualify for the postseason. Castillo posted an 8.42 ERA in nine appearances for the White Sox after arriving from Seattle at the trade deadline, including a 13.50 ERA in three relief outings; his injury put his postseason availability in doubt. Davis returned to the major-league roster after making 29 relief appearances for Chicago earlier this season.

Tyler Davis might provide some relief but the rotation looks thin without Castillo for the stretch.
Castillo's shoulder problem hits right before the playoffs when the White Sox needed stable pitching most.
