Dylan Covey sent down to Triple-A with Tim Anderson back from paternity leave

After struggling in his second outing of the season on Monday, Dylan Covey has been sent down by the White Sox.

With Tim Anderson coming off the paternity list following the birth of his and his wife's second child on Monday, the White Sox optioned Covey to Triple-A Charlotte. Anderson missed both games in Cleveland.

Right-handed reliever Jose Ruiz was added to the roster when Anderson was put on the paternity list. He keeps his roster spot, which makes this move more a swap of Ruiz for Covey.

Covey made two appearances out of the bullpen in the first four games of the season.
