Released, moving to Japan The Mets released Severino on Saturday to allow him to pursue an opportunity in Japan, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Severino will move to Nippon Professional Baseball after turning in an impressive 1.31 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in 20.2 innings at Triple-A Syracuse. If he continues to find success overseas, he could eventually draw interest from MLB clubs and return stateside on a big-league deal.

Pushed off 40-man The Mets designated Severino for assignment Saturday.

Impact The Mets added the 31-year-old southpaw to the 40-man roster May 19, but he'll now lose his spot in favor of Cionel Perez without ever receiving a promotion to the majors. Severino has been extremely effective at Triple-A Syracuse this season, posting a 1.31 ERA and 1.09 WHIP through 20.2 innings, making it more likely that another team will be willing to pick him up off waivers.

Optioned after contract selected The Mets selected Severino's contract from Triple-A Syracuse and optioned him to Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Severino likely had an opt-out clause in his minor-league contract, and the Mets have added him to the 40-man roster to prevent him from exercising it. He's posted a 1.04 ERA and 18:8 K:BB over 17.1 innings with Syracuse this season and could get a look the next time the Mets need a left-handed reliever.

Secures MiLB deal from Mets The Mets signed Severino to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training Sunday, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

Impact Severino spent the 2025 season in the Mexican League, posting a 2.68 ERA and 46:20 K:BB over 37 innings. He has not pitched for a major-league organization since he made six relief appearances for the White Sox in 2022.

Outrighted to minors The White Sox outrighted Severino to Triple-A Charlotte on Sept. 10.

Impact Severino remains in the organization after he cleared waivers when the White Sox designated him for assignment Sept. 9. The 28-year-old lefty had appeared in six games at the big-league level this season, allowing five earned runs on seven hits and four walks across 7.1 innings.

Demoted to Triple-A The White Sox optioned Severino to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Severino and utility infielder Danny Mendick were sent to the minors with the White Sox needing to reduce their active roster from 28 to 26 players ahead of Monday's deadline. Following his April 12 promotion from Charlotte, Severino made six appearances out of the Chicago bullpen, striking out nine over 7.1 innings while giving up five runs on seven hits and four walks.

Three strikeouts in debut Severino walked one and did not allow a hit while striking out three across 1.1 scoreless innings Thursday against Seattle.

Impact Severino was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte earlier in the week in a corresponding move with Lucas Giolito (abdomen) and AJ Pollock (hamstring) hitting the injured list. He pitched well in his major-league debut, though he struggled with control as he both issued a walk and hit batter. While Serverino has good strikeout stuff, the 27-year-old has posted elevated walk rates throughout the minor leagues. He is likely to remain in a low-leverage role out of the bullpen.

Called up to bigs The White Sox recalled Severino from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

Impact With starting pitcher Lucas Giolito (abdomen) and outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) moving to the injured list, the White Sox have opted to replace them on the 28-man active roster with a righty and lefty reliever in Jimmy Lambert and Severino, respectively. Severino, who has yet to appear in the big leagues, narrowly missed out on a spot in Chicago's Opening Day bullpen. He didn't allow any home runs in the minors last season and racked up 53 strikeouts across 45.2 innings between Triple-A and Double-A Birmingham, but a 16.5 percent walk rate likely took him out of the mix for a promotion to the big leagues in 2021. Expect him to work in low-leverage spots for the White Sox initially.

Sent to minors The White Sox optioned Severino to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Impact The 27-year-old lefty's demotion likely puts Bennett Sousa in good position to clinch the final spot in the White Sox's Opening Day bullpen. Severino, meanwhile, will bide his time at Charlotte, where he dominated over 13 appearances following his late-season promotion from Double-A Birmingham. Across 14 innings at the Triple-A level, Severino allowed one earned run on nine hits and seven walks while striking out 20.

APRIL 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Contract selected by White Sox Severino's contract was selected by the White Sox on Friday.

Impact The move prevents Severino from being selected in the Rule 5 draft. The 27-year-old lefty has yet to make his big-league debut, but the White Sox clearly liked the 2.36 ERA he posted in 45.2 innings across the two highest levels of the minors this season. That ERA came with a 16.5 percent walk rate, however, which casts some doubt on Severino's ability to make the jump to the major-league level.
