The 40-man roster of the Chicago White Sox has five players who are out of minor league options.

Those players are Maikel Cleto, Conor Gillaspie, Javy Guerra, Dan Jennings and Hector Noesi.

Two of those players, Noesi and Gillaspie, are most likely to be on the major league roster, but Cleto, Guerra and Jennings are still questions if they are able to make the roster for Opening Day, but most likely two of those pitchers will earn a spot on the White Sox roster.

"“The White Sox claimed Cleto off waivers from the Royals in February 2014, removing him from their 40-man roster in May and re-adding him in August. He and Guerra are among those vying for a couple of spots in the team’s revamped bullpen …”"
