Mike Clevinger believes the Chicago White Sox have everything in place to have great success in 2023.

The right-hander joined the club's rotation on a one-year, $12 million deal.

"I mean the roster's, I think, fully set up for doing special things and having a long season," Clevinger said. "But also ... that's one of my favorite mounds in all the big leagues, so I'm excited to get back to it."

The 31-year-old went 7-7 with a 4.33 ERA in 23 games, including 22 starts, for the San Diego Padres this year.

Clevinger will make $8 million in 2023, and there is a mutual $12 million option for 2024 that includes a $4 million buyout.
