Injury Status: Healthy
by Andy Smith
According to the team, the Chicago White Sox have signed right-handed pitcher James Karinchak to a minor-league deal. The 29-year-old battled a shoulder injury throughout the season and was limited to just six 2/3 innings of work in the minor leagues. Karinchak posted a 2.70 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP with 12 punchouts in this limited stint. In 2023, Karinchak posted a 3.23 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP with 52 punchouts across 39 innings of work. The Bryant University product has flashed high-upside strikeout potential throughout his major league career and could earn a high-leverage role in the White Sox bullpen if he can perform well in spring training. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression, as he could have value in deeper redraft formats if he makes the Opening Day roster.
