The Chicago White Sox have signed left-hander Sean Newcomb to a one-year, $4.5 million deal, allowing him a chance to compete for a starting role. Newcomb, who has struggled in recent seasons but excelled in a relief role with a 1.75 ERA for the Athletics, replaces Ryan Rolison, who was designated for assignment. Newcomb will vie for a spot in the rotation against players like Sean Burke and Jonathan Cannon. Rolison, after a disappointing stint, may be outrighted to Triple-A if unclaimed.
