Jace Fry: Cut by Tigers
The Tigers released Fry (elbow) on Thursday.
Left elbow inflammation has kept Fry sidelined since late April, but the 29-year-old southpaw had been solid out of the bullpen in Triple-A Toledo prior to injury. Before allowing three runs in 1.1 innings during his most recent appearance, Fry held an impressive 2.08 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 12 strikeouts through 8.2 frames. Once healthy, Fry should be able to contribute to another organization's Triple-A bullpen.

Tigers' Jace Fry: Nursing sore elbow at Triple-A
Fry is currently sidelined at Triple-A Toledo with left elbow inflammation, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Fry is being evaluated and receiving "conservative" treatment, so it seems as if he'll probably be out a while. The lefty holds a 4.50 ERA over seven appearances with Toledo this season and hasn't pitched in the majors since 2021.

Tigers' Jace Fry: Sent packing to minors camp
The Tigers reassigned Fry to minor-league camp Monday.
Fry was one of several non-roster invitee relievers with prior MLB experience who received an extended look from the Tigers in spring training, but Trey Wingenter and Chasen Shreve were the top standouts among that group of hurlers during Grapefruit League play and appear to have secured their spots in the Opening Day bullpen. Unless he and the Tigers agree to mutually part ways, Fry is expected to report to Triple-A Toledo to begin the season.

Tigers' Jace Fry: Signs minor-league deal with Tigers
Detroit signed Fry to a minor-league contract Wednesday that includes an invitation to big-league spring training.
Fry spent the back half of the 2022 campaign with Triple-A Lehigh Valley after signing with the Phillies in June, producing a bloated 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with 20 strikeouts over 16 innings in 18 appearances. The left-hander will now have a shot at cracking the Tigers' Opening Day roster if he can impress this spring.

Phillies' Jace Fry: Lands with Phillies
Philadelphia signed Fry to a minor-league contract Sunday and assigned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
He joined the Lehigh Valley roster as a replacement for Dillon Maples, who was released by the organization Friday. Fry was also cut loose Friday by the Nationals, who signed him to a minor-league deal in March. The 28-year-old lefty previously made 162 appearances in the majors with the White Sox across the past five seasons, but he failed to earn a call-up to Washington in 2022 after turning in a 3.77 ERA and 1.56 WHIP across 14.1 innings at Triple-A Rochester.

Fry signed a minor-league contract with the Nationals on Sunday that includes an invite to big-league camp, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Fry elected free agency after being outrighted off the White Sox's 40-man roster in November, and he'll now compete for a bullpen spot with the Nationals. The 28-year-old southpaw appeared in only six major-league games during 2021, and he had a 2.93 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 60:20 K:BB over 40 innings at Triple-A.

Jace Fry: Enters open market
Fry will become a free agent after being outrighted to Triple-A Charlotte, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.
The lefty appeared in only six games this season for the White Sox and posted a 10.80 ERA. Fry enjoyed some big-league success in 2020, pitching to a 3.66 ERA in 19.2 innings, but his most recent action is unlikely to merit a sizable deal this offseason.

White Sox's Jace Fry: On track to rejoin big club
Fry's agency, Northwest Sports Management Group, announced Wednesday that its client will be called up from Triple-A Charlotte.
The White Sox will likely confirm the transaction prior to Wednesday's game against the Twins. Fry has yet to pitch for the big club in 2021 after opening the season on the 60-day injured list while recovering from offseason back surgery, but the southpaw has been making regular appearances in the minors for more than a month and looks to be healthy again. Over his 13 outings at Charlotte spanning 14 innings, Fry has posted a 1.93 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 21:8 K:BB.

White Sox's Jace Fry: Excelling during rehab assignment
Fry (back) has made five appearances for Triple-A Charlotte since beginning a rehab assignment May 27, working five scoreless, no-hit frames while striking out seven and walking four.
As Fry's excellent numbers attest, the White Sox are confident with how the lefty is progressing in his recovery from a microdiscetomy during the offseason. Fry cleared an important milestone in the recovery process over the weekend by pitching on back-to-back days for Charlotte, which could foreshadow a return from the 60-day injured list in the near future.

White Sox's Jace Fry: Rehab assignment on tap
Fry (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
Fry has been sidelined since the start of the year after he underwent a microdisectomy in his back during the offseason. However, the southpaw's rehab assignment is a significant step in his recovery process, and he could be nearing his return. Once Fry is cleared to return to the major-league mound, he should serve as a left-handed option out of the bullpen.

Fry (back) was placed on the 60-day injured list Thursday.
Fry underwent a microdisectomy in his back during the offseason and doesn't yet have a timetable for his return.

White Sox's Jace Fry: Slated to begin season on IL
Fry underwent a microdisectomy in his back during the offseason and should begin the regular season on the injured list, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Fry dealt with back issues last season, and he underwent a procedure during the offseason. As a result, general manager Rick Hahn revealed Wednesday that the southpaw will likely miss the first month of the regular season while he recovers. Once Fry is healthy, he should serve as a middle reliever for the White Sox in 2021.
