The Cubs outrighted Nikhazy to Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday.
He's no longer on the 40-man roster but will remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Nikhazy has collected an 8.44 ERA and 30:21 K:BB over 26.2 innings covering six starts and two relief outings with Triple-A Iowa this season.

The Cubs designated Nikhazy for assignment Monday.
Nikhazy was a casualty of the Cubs needing to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of right-hander Yosver Zulueta, who was acquired via trade. A waiver claim by the Cubs in late April, Nikhazy has turned in an 8.44 ERA and 30:21 K:BB over 26.2 innings covering six starts and two relief outings with Triple-A Iowa.

The Cubs claimed Nikhazy off waivers from the White Sox on Tuesday, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
It's the third organization this month for Nikhazy, who went from the Guardians to the White Sox via waivers three-plus weeks ago. The left-hander holds an 8.71 ERA and 10:4 K:BB over 10.1 innings in the minors this season and will report to Triple-A Iowa.

The White Sox optioned Nikhazy to Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.
The left-hander was called up by Chicago on Friday and will return to the minors after giving up a run over two innings versus the A's in his team debut. Nikhazy's roster spot will be taken by Osvaldo Bido, who is joining the active roster Sunday after being claimed off waivers.

The White Sox recalled Nikhazy from Triple-A Charlotte on Friday.
The 26-year-old southpaw's last minor-league appearance was Tuesday against Jacksonville, when he allowed three hits and two walks while striking out four across four scoreless frames. Bikhazy has started in his two outings in Triple-A this season, but he'll likely serve out of the White Sox's bullpen in a long-relief role. Tyler Gilbert was optioned to Charlotte in a corresponding move.

The White Sox claimed Nikhazy off waivers from the Guardians on Monday and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte.
Nikhazy was buried on the Guardians' starting pitching depth chart, but he should have a better chance at emerging as a big-league rotation option for the White Sox at some point later on in 2026. The southpaw made two appearances in the majors for Cleveland last season but otherwise spent the entire campaign at Triple-A Columbus, producing a 5.02 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 87:43 K:BB across 86 innings.
