WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (Aug. 17, 2019) - Left hander Manny Bañuelos will make a rehab start for Winston-Salem on Saturday during its 6 p.m. home contest against the Potomac Nationals. Bañuelos has been on the injured list with left shoulder inflammation.
In 13 outings with the White Sox this year, Bañuelos has posted a 6.90 ERA with 42 strikeouts in 45.2 innings pitched. This past offseason, the 28-year-old was traded from the Dodgers to the White Sox in exchange for minor league infielder Justin Yurchak. Bañuelos is a part of the White Sox 40-man roster.

Originally signed by the Yankees in 2008, Bañuelos pitched in New York's organization until he was dealt to the Atlanta Braves for David Carpenter and Chasen Shreve. The southpaw went on to make his Major League debut on July 2, 2015, against the Potomac Nationals. Following 2015, he signed a Minor League contract with the Angels, which was followed by a contract with the Dodgers two years later.
With the addition of Bañuelos, the Dash's current active roster stands at 25 players, the Carolina League maximum, with eight on the injured list and one MLB rehab assignment.
