"Taylor began the 2025 season in the starting rotation, allowing just three earned runs across 17.1 innings, while striking out 19 batters and walking 10."
""Every time [Taylor] pitches, I'm pretty excited to read the reports or look at video from the night prior," Getz said Friday in Chicago."
The Chicago White Sox are promoting 23-year-old pitching prospect Grant Taylor for their series against the Astros. Taylor, who stands 6-foot-3 and was drafted second overall by the White Sox in 2023, has shown impressive performance in Double-A Birmingham. In 2025, he allowed only three earned runs in 17.1 innings and has recently excelled in the bullpen, pitching 9.1 innings without giving up a run. General manager Chris Getz highlighted Taylor's strong command and potential for a future starting role, drawing parallels to Garrett Crochet's successful transition from reliever to starter.
