White Sox infielder Maton has cleared waivers following his recent designation for assignment and has been assigned to Triple-A Charlotte. Although he can choose free agency, it's uncertain if he will. Maton had a brief stint in the major league, hitting .173 with notable strikeout and walk rates. His performance didn't align with his strong minor league history. The Sox's poor season record may create opportunities for Maton to return, especially if key players are traded, but they also have promising prospects to consider.
"Maton, 28, signed a minor league deal with the Sox in the offseason and had a challenging stint with a low batting average despite good walk rates."
"Despite showing promise in spring training and in the minors, Maton failed to convert that performance into success during the regular season with the White Sox."
