Pitching Prospect Thomas White Set to Join Marlins' Rotation?
Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Thomas White, who is ranked as the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, will not start as scheduled for Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday due to what is being described as precautionary reasons, sources told Fish on First Prospects. Fellow lefty pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) got the first shot at joining the big-league rotation when the Fish cut right-hander Chris Paddack, but he's now on the injured list and could be facing season-ending elbow surgery. Lefty Braxton Garrett was next up, but he struggled in his two starts and will be sent back to Jacksonville on Wednesday, potentially paving the way for White to make his MLB debut for Game 3 of a series in Miami against the division-rival Atlanta Braves. The former first-rounder in 2023 has a 4.01 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and 35:15 K:BB in 24 2/3 frames over seven starts for Jacksonville and Single-A Jupiter this year, so he hasn't exactly been killing it down on the farm. With his potential big-league debut looming, White is one of the best young arms to stash in fantasy. He's rostered in 6% of Yahoo leagues.
