José Ruiz News
The Philadelphia Phillies have signed right-hander Jose Ruiz to a minor-league deal. Ruiz's deal includes an invitation to major-league spring training camp in 2024. The 29-year-old Venezuelan comes to the Phillies with seven years of major-league experience with the San Diego Padres, Chicago White Sox and Arizona Diamondbacks. He appeared in 38 games (one start) for Chicago and Arizona in 2023 and had a 5.89 ERA (6.26 FIP) and 1.65 WHIP with 21 walks and 39 strikeouts in 44 1/3 innings while surrendering 10 home runs. Ruiz will likely open the 2024 season in the minors for the Phillies as relief depth. He has a 4.51 ERA (4.85 FIP) and 1.49 WHIP in 219 1/3 major-league innings across seven seasons.
Chicago White Sox third baseman/second baseman Yoan Moncada and relief pitcher Jose Ruiz were placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday. The White Sox aren't specifying an injury for either player, so it's a good bet this is related to COVID-19. Moncada has been away from summer camp since Monday and it's unclear if he'll be ready for the start of the regular season. If he has tested positive for COVID-19, he'll need two negative tests in order to rejoin the team. The 25-year-old switch-hitter broke out in 2019 by slashing .315/.367/.548 with 25 home runs, 83 runs, 79 RBI and 10 steals in 132 games. Moncada's average is surely to come down based on an unsustainable BABIP last year, but he has the skills to hit 30 homers and steal double-digit bags over a full season.
