Sox Snag Pitching Talent!
The White Sox are stacking up their bullpen, folks! They've just clinched a sweet deal with Cory Abbott, penning him down to a minor league contract that could bloom into some major cashola if he hits the majors – we're talking $800K! After the Mariners said 'thank you, next' to Abbott earlier in April, the Sox have given the 28-year-old hurler a second look, shipping him off to Triple-A Charlotte.
Abbott's got some chops, despite some big league hiccups. He's got a career ERA of 6.02 and has struggled with walks, but don't let that fool ya! Before Triple-A snags, the guy was all the rave down in Double-A. And check this out – Abbott's not just another flash in the pan; Baseball America had him in their sights, ranking him high in the Cubs' farm system for years.
Can Sox Polish a Diamond in the Rough?
The buzz is that if Abbott can curb those walks and flash the strikeout stuff that made him a minor league star, we could be seeing him racking major numbers on the big stage before long. With the White Sox pitching crew in need of some solid arms, Abbott's chance at prime time might just be around the corner. Stay tuned, 'cause this under-the-radar signing could turn heads!
Major Opportunity for Minor League Pitcher
The White Sox snagged right-hander Cory Abbott with a minor league deal that might turn major! Abbott, who was recently cut from the Mariners, is now bringing his A-game to Triple-A Charlotte. Despite a rocky start with Tacoma and a struggle-worthy 6.02 ERA in the big leagues, this guy has been a knockout in the lower leagues and could be the secret weapon the White Sox's sparse bullpen needs.
Abbott's Walk on the Wild Side
Striking out nearly 30% of batters at Triple-A but giving out free bases like concession stand candy, Abbott's got a wild pitch problem that needs taming. If he can curb the walks, he might just strut into a major league spotlight. Remember, Abbott was a Cubs hot prospect, ranking high in their farm system. Can he reclaim that glory with the White Sox?
So, will Abbott rise from the ashes like a phoenix in Charlotte, or is he just going to add more fuel to his walk-filled fire? Stay tuned, because it could be a game-changer for the White Sox — and your fantasy team!
