The White Sox announced minor-league contracts with eight players Monday and also released the names of another 11 players who will receive non-roster invitations to spring training.
The Sox reached minor-league deals with infielders Cody Asche and Everth Cabrera, left-handed pitchers David Holmberg and Cory Luebke, catchers Roberto Pena and Geovany Soto and right-handed pitchers Blake Smith and Anthony Swarzak.
Several of those players have years of major-league experience, including Cabrera, who has played in parts of seven major-league seasons with the Padres and Orioles.
