Declines mutual option Perez (shoulder) declined his $10 million mutual option for 2026 on Tuesday and became a free agent.

Impact Perez will receive a $1.5 million buyout after declining his option. Elbow and shoulder injuries limited the left-hander to just 11 appearances (10 starts) in 2025, and he finished the season with a 3.54 ERA and 1.11 WHIP through 56 innings. Although he performed well when healthy, health concerns and the fact that he's due to turn 35 in April may lower his value in free agency.

Season ends with shoulder strain The White Sox placed Perez on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left shoulder strain.

Impact Perez was forced to depart his last start against the Orioles in the fourth inning with the injury, and it will officially end his season. The veteran left-hander was limited to only 56 frames this season due to elbow and shoulder issues, but he fared pretty well when on the bump, posting a 3.54 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 44:22 K:BB. Perez will be a free agent this offseason.

Exits start with shoulder injury Perez was lifted from his start Wednesday against the Orioles in the top of the fourth inning due to left shoulder soreness. He was charged with three earned runs on five hits and...

Impact The White Sox were trailing 3-0 at the time of Perez's departure, so he'll be on the hook for the loss if Chicago isn't able to at least tie the game. The veteran southpaw appeared to suffer the injury in question on his 75th and final pitch of the afternoon, as he immediately motioned to the dugout to get checked on by a trainer. Perez had pitched well since returning Aug. 13 following an extended stay on the injured list due to a left flexor strain, turning in a 3.34 ERA and 0.93 WHIP in 32.1 innings over six appearances (five starts) prior to Wednesday.

Gets no help in Friday's loss Perez (1-5) took the loss Friday as the White Sox were downed 4-0 by the Guardians, giving up three runs on four hits and two walks over 6.2 innings. He struck out three.

Impact The veteran southpaw had no margin for error as Tanner Bibee was busy firing a two-hit shutout opposite him, but Perez still delivered his third quality start in his last four outings on 96 pitches (61 strikes). Since coming off the IL in mid-August, Perez has produced a 3.34 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 24:9 K:BB in 32.1 innings over six appearances (five starts), but he has an 0-4 record to show for it due to a lack of run support -- incredibly, Chicago's been shut out in four of those six games. He's scheduled to make his next trip to the mound at home next week against the Orioles.

Mauled by Tigers Perez (1-4) took the loss Saturday, coughing up six runs on five hits and three walks over four innings as the White Sox fell 6-0 to the Tigers. He failed to strike out a batter.

Impact The veteran southpaw had no margin for error in a matchup with Tarik Skubal, but after Perez served up a leadoff homer to Jahmai Jones, he completely unraveled in the fourth inning. Perez had allowed just four runs total (three earned) over 21.2 innings in August after returning from the IL, but his first outing in September provided an immediate correction to his ratios. Perez will carry a 3.15 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 39:18 K:BB through 45.2 innings on the season into his next start, which lines up to come on the road next weekend in Cleveland.

Quality start in no-decision Perez took a no-decision in Sunday's 3-2 win against the Yankees, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over six innings with seven strikeouts.

Impact The veteran southpaw held his own against a tough New York lineup in this 99-pitch outing, firing 62 strikes. Perez notched his fourth quality start of the season, as Aaron Judge accounted for the two runs he gave up -- the reigning AL MVP hit a solo shot in the first and scored on a Cody Bellinger double in third. Perez now sports a sterling 2.16 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 39:15 K:BB across 41.2 total frames. He is currently scheduled to face the division-leading Tigers in his next start on the road next weekend.
