Adrian Houser has Become Viable Trade Chip
Chicago White Sox right-hander Adrian Houser has become a viable trade chip this summer before the July 31 deadline, as he's gone 5-2 with a nice 1.56 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 39:18 K:BB in 57 2/3 innings over his nine starts since joining the Pale Hose. Houser has a chip on his shoulder after being released by four different teams since last July. The 32-year-old spent the 2024 season with the New York Mets but finished with a 1-5 record, career-high 5.84 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 45:32 K:BB in 69 1/3 frames over 23 appearances (seven starts). Although Houser has only 39 strikeouts in his 57 2/3 innings in Chicago this year, he could be an attractive trade piece for a contending team looking to round out its starting rotation for the second half of the season. Houser would certainly be more intriguing as a fantasy streamer if he were to land with a contender.
