Hoopii-Tuionetoa

Hoopii-Tuionetoa looked like a nice relief prospect when the Rangers traded him to the White Sox for Robbie Grossman in May 2024, but something went wrong; he didn’t pitch at all last season after getting placed on the restricted list, and the White Sox released him in July. Maybe getting back to his original organization will turn things around for him.

Hoopii-Tuionetoa has pitched in 10 games at the Double-A level and hasn’t allowed a run with a 16/4 K/BB ratio across 12 1/3 innings. The 23-year-old right-hander hasn’t reached Triple-A during his four-year professional career, so it’s unlikely he’ll get much opportunity this season.
