Grant Taylor - Cleared for AFL Taylor (lat) is slated to pitch in the Arizona Fall League for the Glendale Desert Dogs.
Impact Taylor missed LSU's 2023 national championship season following Tommy John surgery and missed most of this season with a lat strain, so this is a chance for him to make up for lost time. It's a weak crop of pitching prospects in the AFL, and Taylor has the stuff to stand out, headlined by a mid-90s fastball, low-90s cutter and a pair of breaking balls. He posted a 1.13 ERA, 0.63 WHIP and 25:1 K:BB in 16 innings over four starts for Single-A Kannapolis earlier this year.

Korey Lee - Struggles to close season Lee went 1-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base Sunday against the Tigers.
Impact Lee has split time with Chuckie Robinson in September after struggling for the second half of the campaign. Since the All-Star break, he has maintained just a .242 wOBA and .558 OPS. Even so, Lee should get the chance to open the 2025 season as the White Sox's starting backstop.

Bryan Ramos - Shows power to close season Ramos went 2-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Tigers.
Impact Ramos started 14 games in September after being recalled Sept. 4. He showed some decent pop by collecting three homers and five total extra-base hits in 59 plate appearances. He hit just .208, but a 23.7 percent strikeout rate isn't all that concerning. Ramos should be in position to compete for the starting third base job in 2025.

Lenyn Sosa - Strong finish to season Sosa went 3-for-4 Sunday with a walk, a home run, three RBI and three runs against the Tigers.
Impact Sosa clubbed a three-run blast in the third inning, marking his eighth homer of the season. Sosa, who also added two singles matched season-highs with three hits and three RBI. Over his final 14 games, Sosa posted eight multi-hit games, going 20-for-49 (.408) with four homers, two doubles, 10 RBI and 10 runs.

Jonathan Cannon - Earns fifth win Cannon (5-10) earned the win Sunday, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks over five innings against the Tigers. He struck out three.
Impact Cannon was staked with a rare 5-0 lead and carried it into the fifth but three walks in the inning led to a two-out grand slam by Kerry Carpenter that spoiled Cannon's final line. Despite the disappointing end to his outing, the White Sox later provided four additional insurance runs and Cannon was able to escape with his fifth win in 15 decisions. The 24-year-old righty finished his initial big-league campaign making 21 starts among 23 appearances, posting a 4.49 ERA and 1.33 WHIP with 91 strikeouts across 124.1 innings.
