Chicago White Sox right-handers Prelander Berroa (elbow) and Juan Carela (elbow) both will need Tommy John surgery, according to the team. It means that both pitchers will miss the entire 2025 season and could be forced to miss the start of next year as well. Berroa, 24, was initially injured during a Cactus League outing late last month. The White Sox added Carela, 23, to their 40-man roster in the offseason to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. Berroa was the one that had a shot to be a high-leverage arm for the Pale Hose out of their bullpen this year after sporting a 3.32 ERA (4.01 FIP) and 1.47 WHIP with 26 strikeouts and 13 walks in 19 relief innings in the big leagues last year. The hard-throwing righty had three holds and a win and had shown plenty of strikeout upside. Both he and Carela have long recoveries ahead of them.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Prelander Berroa (elbow) was diagnosed with a Grade 1 elbow strain. Berroa exited Saturday's Cactus League contest early after feeling discomfort in his elbow. Given this recent update, fantasy managers should expect Berroa to remain sidelined for at least a few weeks. As a result, he could be in danger of missing Opening Day. The 24-year-old logged a career-high 19 innings in the major leagues last season. He held a 3.32 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP across this stint. He tallied an impressive 26 punchouts with a strong 2.26 xERA, which suggests he could face some positive regression when he returns to the mound. When cleared for action, the right-hander will compete for a high-leverage role in the Chicago bullpen.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Chicago White Sox right-handed pitcher Prelander Berroa (elbow) exited Saturday's spring training contest against the Chicago Cubs due to right elbow discomfort. The 24-year-old was only able to tally one out before being removed from the game. He allowed two runs, a free pass, and three hits before exiting as well. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his status but should expect the team to keep him sidelined until he is fully evaluated. After logging just one 2/3 innings in the majors in the 2023 season, Berroa logged a career-high 19 innings in 2024. He tallied 26 punchouts and held a 3.32 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. He was deployed primarily out of the bullpen. When he does return to action, fantasy managers should expect the 24-year-old to compete for a high-leverage role in the bullpen.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

The Chicago White Sox have acquired right-handed pitcher Prelander Berroa, outfielder Zach DeLoach, and the 69th overall pick in the 2024 draft from the Seattle Mariners in exchange for reliever Gregory Santos, per ESPN's Jeff Passan. Berroa is a young right-handed prospect who bypassed Triple-A to make his MLB debut last season. He's an interesting case study given his very high walk and strikeout rates, as well as very low home run and ground-ball rates. He might not be an immediate contributor in Chicago but figures to crack the big-league squad (presumably in the bullpen) within a year or two. DeLoach is a former second-round pick who spent most of his time in right field at the Triple-A level last year. He slashed .286/.387/.481 with 23 home runs and could open the year as the White Sox' fourth outfielder amidst new reports that Oscar Colas is likely headed for Triple-A.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Prelander Berroa was optioned back to Double-A Arkansas on Saturday. The 23-year-old reliever made his MLB debut on Friday against the Blue Jays, walking three and punching out one over 2/3 of a scoreless inning. While his debut didn't go as well as the Mariners would hope, he was put in a high-leverage situation with inherited runners aboard in a tight ball game so there were likely some jitters. He'll head back down to Double-A to work on his control while Isaiah Campbell, who was recalled from Double-A, will take his place on the active roster.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
