Nick Madrigal, Andrew Vaughn among 27 White Sox invitees to spring training

Second baseman Nick Madrigal and first baseman Andrew Vaughn head a list of 12 White Sox prospects who received invitations to spring training Tuesday.

The Sox also agreed to terms on minor-league contracts with 15 free agents: infielders Cheslor Cuthbert, Andrew Romine and Matt Skole; outfielders Jaycob Brugman and Nicky Delmonico; left-handers Adalberto Mejia, Ross Detwiler, Caleb Frare, Jacob Lindgren and Matt Tomshaw; and right-handers Bryan Mitchell, Drew Anderson, Ryan Burr, Brady Lail and Alex McRae. All 15 received non-roster invites to spring training.

Joining Madrigal and Vaughn among prospects not on the 40-man roster who will begin spring training in major-league camp are outfielders Daniel Palka and Luis Gonzalez; right-handers Codi Heuer, Tyler Johnson, Jonathan Stiever and Tayron Guerrero; left-handers Kodi Medeiros and Hunter Schryver; catcher Carlos Perez; and first baseman Gavin Sheets.

Vaughn was the No. 3 overall pick in the 2019 draft and is the Sox’ No. 3 prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. Madrigal was selected No. 4 overall in 2018 and is the Sox’ No. 4 prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. If Madrigal doesn’t make the Opening Day roster, he is expected to make his major-league debut during the season.

Pitchers and catchers report to spring training Feb. 12. Position players report Feb. 17, the day of the first full-squad workout.
