McDougal

McDougal has been sidelined since late April with forearm tightness. The 86th-ranked prospect in baseball, according to Baseball America, should be back in games around the end of the month and could be an option for the White Sox near the end of the summer if all goes well.

McDougal is the 86th-ranked prospect in all of baseball, according to Baseball America, and a consensus Top 10 prospect in the White Sox’s system. He has a 3.13 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 26/13 K/BB ratio in 23 innings at Triple-A this season. The White Sox will hope that the forearm tightness is not a precursor to a more significant injury.

Schultz’s fantasy stock has cratered over the past calendar year as his strikeout and walk rates continue trending in the wrong direction. He’s been plagued by injuries, which limited him to just 17 minor-league starts this past season. The 22-year-old southpaw was one of the top pitching prospects in baseball just a few years ago but he isn’t close to pitching in the big leagues entering 2026.

McDougal, one of the team’s top pitching prospects, had a 3.26 ERA and a 136/49 K/BB in 113 1/3 innings between high-A and Double-A last season. He’ll head back to Double-A to begin 2026. Davitt was one of the three prospects the White Sox got from the Rays in the Adrian Houser deal. He had a 5.03 ERA in nine starts in Triple-A after being acquired, but the White Sox still didn’t want to risk another team grabbing him in the Rule 5 draft.
