Alex McRae has signed with the Lake County Dockhounds of the independent American Association.
McRae made a pair of relief appearances for the White Sox last season, but spent the majority of the year at Triple-A Charlotte, posting an underwhelming 5.38 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 86/42 K/BB ratio across 88 2/3 innings (26 appearances, 18 starts). The 28-year-old righty will look to rebuild his value in the independent American Association next season.
