White Sox to receive cash considerations
ANAHEIM – The Angels today acquired LHP Jake Eder from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Salt Lake. In a corresponding 40-man roster move, RHP Michael Petersen has been designated for assignment.
Eder, 26, made his Major League debut in relief for the White Sox on September 17, 2024 at Angel Stadium, and pitched two innings of relief and allowed one run on two hits and one walk with one strikeout. He also made 24 Minor League starts in 2024, and totaled 122 strikeouts in 109 innings pitched. Entering 2025, Eder was ranked as the White Sox #23 prospect by Baseball America.
A native of Boynton Beach, FL, Eder was originally selected by the Mets in the 34th round of the 2017 First-Year Player draft out of Calvary Christian Academy (Fort Lauderdale, FL), but elected to attend Vanderbilt University. He was later selected and signed by the Marlins in the fourth round of the 2020 MLB Draft out of Vanderbilt. On August 1, 2023, Eder was traded from Miami to the White Sox in exchange for Jake Burger.
