White Sox's Davis Martin: Sliding into rotation

Martin will move into the White Sox's starting rotation after Erick Fedde was traded to the Cardinals on Tuesday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Martin made a 2.2-inning relief appearance Saturday versus the Mariners in what was his first outing at the big-league level since he had Tommy John surgery in May 2023. He was a starter prior to the elbow operation, and he made seven starts at Triple-A Charlotte before being called up Saturday, maxing out at four innings and 64 pitches. The White Sox will be careful with Martin's workload down the stretch, but he will be auditioning for a spot in the 2025 rotation.
