In his 11 appearances for the White Sox between 2016 and 2018, he had a 4.85 earned run average, 2.31 WHIP and 11 strikeouts. He worked for the organization in the minor league.
He signed a minor league deal with the SeattleMariners. He was released in May of last year after just six appearances and a terrible 21.26 earned run average.
After his release from the Seattle organization, Danes spent time with multiple teams across various independent leagues before finding his way back into MLB's minor league system with the LA Angels in May 2021.
