Campana (knee) has been released by the White Sox, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports. Campana was a long shot to win a reserve role with the White Sox in spring training, but any hope he might have had was dashed after he tore his ACL in February. He's expected to miss the entire 2015 season, likely forcing him to settle for another minor-league deal next winter.

Campana suffered a torn ACL during training and will likely miss the entire 2015 season, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.Campana was expected to battle for a bench spot after signing with the White Sox as an NRI this offseason. In 2014, he appeared in 44 total MLB games for the Diamondbacks and Angels, hitting just .187 with five RBI in 75 at-bats. He's shown flashes of elite speed in the past, stealing 24 bases in 2011 and 30 in 2012, but those numbers have diminished over the last two seasons. While there is a slight chance Campana could return near the end of the season, he's far more likely to be back on the field in 2016.

Campana signed a minor league deal with the White Sox on Friday that includes an invite to spring training, the White Sox's official site reports. Campana's deal will give him the opportunity to compete for a bench spot with the White Sox out of spring training. His most notable attribute is his speed, though he stole just four bases in 44 major league games last season. He didn't hit well last season, leading to his designation for assignment in late October. If the 28-year-old can show some offensive production in spring training, he may be able to grab a bench spot.

Campana has elected to explore his options in free agency after being outrighted by the Angels on Wednesday, Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish reports. Campana started just one game for the Angels after being called up in September, and wasn't added to the club's postseason roster. His best asset is his speed, though he failed to impress on the basepaths at Triple-A last season, swing just 17 of his 28 attempts. He will look for work elsewhere, but will likely find himself in the minors to start 2015.

Campana was outrighted off the Angels' 40-man roster Monday, Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com reports. Campana made just one start with the big club following his September call-up -- the day after the Angels clinched the AL West -- and despite a respectable 5-for-15 mark for the month, the 28-year-old still finished the year with a .187/.197/.227 batting line. Moreover, Campana wasn't as efficient on the basepaths at Triple-A as he was in past seasons, successfully stealing on just 17-of-28 attempts, so he seems destined to spend 2015 as little more than organizational depth.

Campana was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday, Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com reports. Acquired from the Diamondbacks in early July, Campana hit .267/.330/.317 with nine stolen bases (18 attempts) in 53 games after making the jump to Salt Lake. His speed makes him a plus defender at all three outfield spots, but he may be used mostly as a pinch runner and as a late-game replacement in the weeks ahead.

The speedy outfielder has seen limited time with the Diamondbacks this season, going 9-for-60 (.150) with a 10/0 K/BB ratio. He'll function as organizational depth in the outfield for the Angels.
