SHARE White Sox outright Tekotte, McDade to AAA Charlotte

The White Sox outrighted infielder Mike McDade and outfielder Blake Tekotte to Class AAA Charlotte on Friday.

Tekotte, 26, hit .226 with one home run and two RBI in 20 games for the Sox in 2013. He batted .236 at Charlotte.

McDade, 24, split last season between Charlotte and AAA Columbus in the Indians system. He combined to hit .250 with 22 doubles, 10 home runs and 53 RBI. The Sox claimed McDade on waivers in May.

The moves take their 40-man roster to 37. The Sox agreed to a one-year contract with right-handed reliever Ronald Belisario on Thursday but haven’t made the signing official pending a physical.
