The White Sox outrighted Perez to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
He's no longer on the 40-man roster but will remain in the organization. Perez went 6-for-35 with three home runs and a 1:14 BB:K in 22 contests with the White Sox this season. The 25-year-old will give Chicago some outfield depth at Charlotte.

The White Sox optioned Perez to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
Perez socked a pinch-hit home run Sunday against the Astros, but the rookie outfielder has not started a game since the All-Star break. He'll play more regularly at Charlotte. Perez's demotion could signify Everson Pereira's (concussion) impending activation.

Perez went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 12-3 win over the Astros.
Perez hasn't been in the lineup since before the All-Star break, though he made an impact with his bat while coming off the bench Sunday. He took Miguel Ullola deep to left field in the eighth inning for his third career home run across 36 plate appearances. Despite flashing power in his limited sample in the majors, Perez has recorded just six hits and is striking out at a 38.9 percent clip.

Perez went 2-for-3 with a solo home run during Friday's loss to the Tigers.
It took just two games for Perez to go deep for the first time in his big-league career, and it came against none other than back-to-back Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal. The 24-year-old Perez is up with the big club to serve as depth with Austin Hays (calf) and Everson Pereira (concussion) both on the injured list and will likely return to the minors once Chicago's outfield unit starts to return to full health.

The White Sox recalled Perez from Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.
He'll grab the roster spot vacated by the injured Everson Pereira (concussion) and could work his way into the outfield rotation on the south side of Chicago. Acquired from the Athletics last month in a trade, Perez has slashed .217/.292/.401 with seven home runs, nine stolen bases and a 23:84 BB:K over 56 games at the Triple-A level in 2026. The 24-year-old has loud tools but also major contact issues, so it could be a tough immediate transition to facing big-league pitching.

The Athletics traded Perez to the White Sox for minor-league left-hander Jackson Nove on Saturday.
The A's thought enough of Perez to add him to the 40-man roster last November, but he lost that spot when he was DFA'd on Thursday. The 24-year-old struggled with Triple-A Las Vegas before Saturday's trade, slashing .210/.273/.384 with five home runs, 19 RBI, 23 runs, four stolen bases and a 33.1 percent strikeout rate over 36 games. Perez hit 26 long balls in the minors in 2025 and stole 41 bases in 2023, so he has an intriguing skill set. However, he may need to cut down on the strikeouts to get much of a look in the majors.
