CHICAGO WHITE SOX NEWS

Nick Nastrini - Tosses first career quality start Nastrini (0-6)allowed one run on three hits and a walk over six innings Thursday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Rangers.

Impact Nastrini had the best start of his young career on Thursday but still came away with a hard luck loss against the Rangers. Nastrini pitched six innings for the first time this season, but he now has six losses in seven career starts. The 24-year-old has allowed three hits or less in five of his seven starts but has struggled with his control. Nastrini had more walks than innings pitched coming into Thursday's game, so only allowing one walk is a welcome sight.

Brooks Baldwin - Absent from lineup Baldwin is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Baldwin also sat out the second game of Wednesday's quasi-doubleheader, so this is technically two straight contests on the bench for the rookie infielder. He's slashed only .216/.256/.324 in his first 32 big-league games. Lenyn Sosa will be at second base and Nicky Lopez will handle shortstop for the White Sox in this one.

Sammy Peralta - Sent back to Triple-A The White Sox optioned Peralta to Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday.

Impact After being recalled from Charlotte on Monday, Peralta made a pair of appearances out of the Chicago bullpen, giving up three earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out three over 4.1 innings. He'll head back to the minors and cede his spot on the 26-man active roster to right-hander Nick Nastrini, who was called up from Triple-A ahead of his scheduled start Thursday versus the Rangers.

Nick Nastrini - Called up ahead of start The White Sox recalled Nastrini from Triple-A Charlotte ahead of his scheduled start Thursday against the Rangers in Chicago.

Impact Nastrini will make his first appearance for the big club since June 8 after he submitted a 4.89 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 54:35 K:BB across 49.2 innings since returning to Charlotte. The right-hander's numbers were even worse over his six starts with the White Sox earlier this season (8.39 ERA, 1.99 WHIP and 25:19 K:BB in 24.2 innings), rendering Nastrini an unreliable streaming option as he rejoins the White Sox. Nastrini will be joining the White Sox rotation as a replacement for Ky Bush, who was optioned to Triple-A earlier this week.

Matt Foster - Returned to Charlotte The White Sox returned Foster to Triple-A Charlotte after Wednesday's doubleheader versus Texas.

Impact Foster threw two scoreless innings while serving as Chicago's opener in the nightcap, giving up two hits and a walk while recording a strikeout. He'll now return to the minors and continue to serve as organizational bullpen depth, though given his effectiveness in both the majors and Triple-A, there's a good chance he makes another appearance for the White Sox before the end of the year.

Nick Nastrini - Starting Thursday Nastrini will be recalled from Triple-A Charlotte to start Thursday's game against the Rangers, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Through six starts in the majors, Nastrini has accumulated a gaudy 8.39 ERA and 1.99 WHIP across 24.2 innings. He's posted better numbers since being sent back to the minors in early June (4.89 ERA, 1.63 WHIP through 49.2 frames) and will be facing a Rangers offense that has turned in a .602 OPS over their last 10 games, but the 24-year-old righty should still be considered a risky streaming option based on his poor MLB resume.

Chris Flexen - Pitches well in loss Flexen (2-12) allowed three runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out four over 6.1 innings to take the loss in Tuesday's game versus the Rangers, which was completed Wedn...

Impact Garrett Crochet started before the game was put into a weather delay just four pitches in. Flexen stayed on turn by entering the game officially as a reliever and turned in a decent performance for his second outing in a row. He's now gone four appearances without yielding a home run. Flexen is at a 5.29 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 94:55 K:BB through 134.1 innings over 28 outings (25 starts). He'll likely return to a starting role for his next game, which is projected to be at Baltimore early next week.

Brooks Baldwin - Not starting nightcap Baldwin isn't in the White Sox's lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against Texas.

Korey Lee - Resting in Game 2 Lee isn't in the White Sox's lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Rangers.

Matt Foster - Up as 27th man Foster was added to the White Sox's roster as the 27th man ahead of the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against Texas.

Impact Foster will also serve as the opener for the White Sox, as they plan on relying on their bullpen to get them through Wednesday's nightcap. The 29-year-old righty threw a scoreless inning out of the bullpen during his season debut Aug. 16, and he owns a 2.40 ERA through 15 innings at Triple-A Charlotte.
