White Sox Place Petricka on Disabled List, Recall Kahnle From Class AAA Charlotte

The Chicago White Sox placed pitcher Jake Petricka on the disabled list Thursday and recalled Tommy Kahnle from Triple-A Charlotte to replace him.

Petricka was put on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to April 5. with a strained right lat muscle, the team announced.

The 28-year-old right-handed reliever threw one scoreless inning during Tuesday’s season opener against the Tigers. He was limited to nine appearances with the team last season after undergoing surgery to repair a labral tear in his right hip.[[418518903, C]]

Kahnle has had a bit of Major League experience over the last three seasons, spending 2014-15 with the Colorado Rockies and joining the White Sox last season. In 29 appearances with the White Sox last year out of the bullpen, Kahnle had a 2.63 ERA and allowed just two home runs in 27 innings of work.
