"Vasil started the game with 3 2/3 scoreless innings before issuing two walks, calling for the trainer, and ultimately departing. That continued his effort to build up as a starter after working mostly in relief in 2025. In 101 innings over 47 appearances (three starts), he posted an excellent 2.50 ERA, albeit with less-shiny peripherals including a 4.32 FIP."
"The Sox open their season on March 26 on the road against the Brewers, so Vasil may not have time to fully build up if he is anything more than day-to-day. If he misses time, the club will roll with Davis Martin, Anthony Kay, and Erick Fedde in the rotation behind 2025 All-Star Shane Smith."
"Angels shortstop injured his left hand on a head-first slide into home in today's game against the Mariners. He was set to undergo tests after the game, according to Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register. Neto ended the 2025 season on the injured list with a left hand strain, and he underwent surgery in 2024 to fix a right shoulder injury."
White Sox right-hander Vasil departed today's Spring Training game with elbow soreness and will undergo further testing. He pitched 3 2/3 scoreless innings before issuing two walks and requiring the trainer. Vasil is working to transition from relief to a starting role after posting a 2.50 ERA in 101 innings across 47 appearances last season. With the regular season opening March 26, limited time remains for him to build up. If sidelined, the rotation will feature Davis Martin, Anthony Kay, Erick Fedde, and All-Star Shane Smith. Vasil could return to long relief initially before joining the rotation later if needed. Additionally, Angels shortstop Neto sustained a left hand injury on a head-first slide into home, though early assessments suggest optimism about severity.
