Bilous was designated for assignment by Chicago last week, and Cleveland had an open 40-man roster spot after trading outfielder Will Benson to the Reds on Wednesday. Bilous, 25, struggled to a 6.30 ERA and 131:79 K:BB in 105.2 innings last season between the Double-A and Triple-A levels. He's yet to pitch in a major-league game.

Bilous was designated for assignment by the White Sox on Friday.
