"Once he was back in action, he hit the mound running. Between 2021 and 2022, he tossed 115 2/3 innings in the minors, allowing 3.42 earned runs per nine. His 7.5% walk rate was strong and his 34.1% strikeout rate excellent. The Rangers gave him a 40-man spot in the 2022-23 offseason to keep him out of the Rule 5 draft. Going into the 2023 campaign, Baseball America ranked White as the #59 prospect in the league."
"Since then, however, White has hit a number of speed bumps. He got shelled in his first major league appearances and his results also backed up in the minors. He tossed 207 2/3 innings for the Triple-A Round Rock Express over 2023 and 2024 with a 4.90 ERA. The Express play in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League but White's 18.3% strikeout rate and 11.3% walk rate were both poor figures."
"Prior to the 2025 season, he went to the Reds, Yankees and White Sox via small deals or waiver claims. He spent 2025 with the Sox but was mostly kept on optional assignment. He threw only seven big league innings, allowing seven earned runs. Combined with his brief MLB appearances with the Rangers, he now has an unfortunate 12.86 ERA in 14 total innings in the majors."
Right-hander White signed with the Hanwha Eagles of the KBO for $1 million, including a $200,000 signing bonus and an $800,000 salary. White underwent Tommy John surgery in 2019 and missed 2020 minor-league action due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In 2021–2022 he threw 115 2/3 minor-league innings with a 3.42 ERA, a 7.5% walk rate and a 34.1% strikeout rate, earning a 40-man roster spot and a No. 59 ranking from Baseball America entering 2023. He struggled in 2023–24 at Triple-A with a 4.90 ERA, elevated walk rate and reduced strikeouts, then moved between multiple MLB organizations and posted a 12.86 ERA across 14 big-league innings.
