The Chicago White Sox optioned starting pitcher Sean Burke to Triple-A Charlotte and recalled Owen White before the series against the Atlanta Braves. Owen White has pitched 6.2 innings with a 4.05 ERA this season. Sean Burke, who started on Opening Day, has a 4.28 ERA over 117.2 innings, indicating a potential workload issue as the season progresses. The White Sox aim to protect their young arms and ensure adequate pitching depth by making this roster move. Burke is expected to return soon to the major league team after this temporary demotion.
Owen White has made a few brief appearances on Chicago's 26-man roster this season, pitching 6.2 innings with six strikeouts and a 4.05 ERA.
Sean Burke has been a reliable pitcher with a 4.28 ERA over 117.2 innings this season, but he may be wearing down as the season ends.
The decision to demote Sean Burke has been deemed necessary to protect young pitchers and maintain the team's overall depth.
While Burke's performance has been solid, the White Sox may bring him back to the MLB soon as he remains an asset for the team.
