Lindstrom signed a minor-league deal with the White Sox on Friday, MLB.com's Scott Merkin reports. After being released from the Angels' spring camp a week ago, Lindstrom will return to the organization he called home last season. Though he served as the White Sox's closer for a stretch of 2014, Lindstrom's poor numbers (5.03 ERA, 18:12 K:BB ratio over 34 innings) and the offseason addition of David Robertson likely won't allow him to touch the ninth inning this season. Instead, Lindstrom will likely head to Triple-A Charlotte to open the year as he attempts to earn his way back to the big leagues.
