Chicago White Sox fans have reason to be optimistic about the organization's future due to a solid group of promising young pitchers, both in the majors and minors. Key pitchers like Shane Smith, Davis Martin, and others are performing well and under club control until 2030. However, concerns arise as Hagen Smith faces velocity issues and possible fatigue, and plans to move Grant Taylor to the bullpen raise workload management questions. While the outlook is hopeful with top prospects, injury risks to key players create uncertainty moving forward.
According to MLB.com's Scott Merkin, the White Sox are going to have Hagen Smith skip his next start with Double-A Birmingham.
The potential is through the roof when it comes to the White Sox future.
Smith's velocity was fluctuating in his last start on Saturday at Columbus, showing some signs of fatigue.
The move helps manage the right-hander's workload, while getting him some bullpen reps.
