White Sox Recall Jordan Danks

(CBS) To fill the roster spot of Jake Peavy, who was traded to the Red Sox on Tuesday, the White Sox have called up outfielder Jordan Danks.

Danks' call up is multifaceted - he brings the team's active roster to 25 players, and can fill in for Alex Rios if the veteran outfielder is traded or forced to miss time with a minor foot injury suffered Tuesday night.

Danks, 26, has appeared in 32 games (nine starts) with the White Sox this season, hitting .135 (5-37) with one home run and two RBIs.
