Rienzo was traded to the Marlins on Thursday in exchange for Dan Jennings.

Analysis:

Rienzo appeared in 28 games and started 21 for the White Sox over the last two seasons, but he was no longer needed in the starting rotation, so Chicago decided to swap him for a proven reliever. Rienzo will likely open next season in either the Marlins' bullpen, or in the rotation for the team's Triple-A affiliate in New Orleans.
