White Sox trade reliever Ruiz to Diamondbacks for cash
CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox have traded veteran reliever José Ruiz to Arizona on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations. The White Sox designated the 28-year-old Ruiz for assignment following a difficult start to the season. Ruiz allowed nine runs on eight hits with four walks and three strikeouts in 3 2/3 innings across four appearances for Chicago. Ruiz spent five-plus with the White Sox, who claimed him off waivers from San Diego in December 2017. Ruiz went 3-7 with a 4.53 ERA in 177 appearances for Chicago.
