White Sox Promote Prospect David Sandlin After Stellar Showing at Triple-A
The Chicago White Sox are promoting right-handed pitching prospect David Sandlin to the major-league roster, according to Elijah Evans of Just Baseball Media. Sandlin is currently ranked as the team's No. 18 prospect on MLB.com. However, despite his lower prospect pedigree, the right-hander has been near-perfect at Triple-A this season and carries some sneaky intrigue ahead of his MLB debut. The right-hander has made only four starts with the top club this season as he has battled an elbow injury. However, over these 12 frames, Sandlin has been incredible, posting a 0.75 ERA with a 1.25 WHIP. He has struck out 17 hitters while walking only six. While the team has yet to determine Sandlin's role, he could quickly find a job in their starting rotation since they lack many proven options. For now, he's worth picking up as a speculative add in deep leagues.

Grant Taylor Earns Save, New Closer on the South Side?
Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Grant Taylor was tasked with pitching the final frame of Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Taylor didn't have any issues as he struck out the side to earn his first save of the season. After that outing, Taylor holds a 1.78 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, and a 15:4 K:BB ratio across 19 appearances this season. The White Sox haven't won any games since then, so it's unclear if this was a one-time thing or if Taylor is going to be the closer moving forward. Seranthony Dominguez has blown three saves and holds a 4.82 ERA across 18.2 innings this season. It wouldn't be shocking to see the White Sox give Taylor a chance at the closer role moving forward.

Grant Taylor Earns Save in Dominant Fashion, Emerging as a Potential Closer Option?
Chicago White Sox right-hander Grant Taylor earned his first save of the season on Tuesday, striking out the side in a scoreless ninth inning during his team's 2-1 win over the Seattle Mariners. The 24-year-old is off to an excellent start in 2026, as he's recorded a 1.78 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with 38 strikeouts across 25 1/3 innings (19 games). Veteran righty Seranthony Dominguez has been the primary closer so far in 2026 for Chicago. However, Dominguez currently owns a 4.82 ERA and has given up five home runs across 18 2/3 innings pitched. Taylor has been the more dominant of the two relievers by far, as he's averaging 98.6 miles per hour on his fastball and has struck out 36.2% of the batters he's faced so far this year. Fantasy managers in need of saves may want to consider targeting Taylor on the waiver wire ahead of his potential promotion to the ninth-inning role for the White Sox.

Seranthony Dominguez Establishing Himself as a Reliable Source of Saves
Across 14 2/3 innings (18 games) so far this season, Chicago White Sox closer Seranthony Dominguez has recorded a 3.68 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, 19 strikeouts, and eight saves. The 31-year-old has been particularly locked in of late, allowing just one earned run while logging 11 strikeouts and five saves over his last nine appearances. Control continues to be an issue for Dominguez, as he currently owns a 14.3% walk rate after posting a 13.8% walk rate in 2025. However, his strikeout rate is also north of 30% for the second straight season, which helps mitigate the damage of his free passes. Dominguez appears to have a firm hold on the ninth-inning role for the White Sox and should be rostered across all fantasy formats.
