The Chicago White Sox placed right-handed reliever Elvis Peguero on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday because of a strained right elbow.

In a corresponding move, the White Sox recalled rookie right-hander Wikelman Gonzalez from Triple-A Charlotte.

Chicago had recalled Peguero on Tuesday from when right-hander Owen White (right hip impingement) went on the 15-day IL.

Peguero, 28, has pitched in two games for the White Sox, including Tuesday when he faced four batters and allowed one hit, two walks and two runs in one-third of an inning in the 11-10 loss to the host Atlanta Braves.

He also made his first career MLB start in the Chicago's 2-1 home loss Aug. 11 to Detroit, yielding three hits and one run with three strikeouts in 1 2/3 innings.

The White Sox had selected him off waivers on Aug. 3 from the Milwaukee Brewers, where he was 0-0 with 4.91 ERA, four walks and five strikeouts in 7 1/3 innings over six relief appearance this season.

The Dominican Republic native is a career 11-10 with a 4.26 ERA, 67 walks and 121 strikeouts in 135 games for the Los Angeles Angels (2021-22), Brewers (2023-25) and White Sox.

Gonzalez, 23, is 0-0 with a 2.25 ERA, four walks and six strikeouts in eight innings over five relief appearances for Chicago. He is a combined 6-4 with a 4.93 ERA, 41 walks and 51 strikeouts in 49 1/3 innings over 26 games (four starts) for the White Sox's Double-A and Triple-A affiliates in Birmingham and Charlotte.
