White Sox's Grant Taylor: Will make some relief appearances
Taylor will make some appearances out of the bullpen for Double-A Birmingham as means to manage his workload, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
The White Sox still plan to develop Taylor as a starting pitcher, but they will be careful with his workload after he missed all of 2023 following Tommy John surgery and most of 2024 with a lat injury. Taylor has made six starts with Birmingham this season, posting a 1.56 ERA and 19:10 K:BB over 17.1 frames.

White Sox's Grant Taylor: Assigned to Double-A
Taylor will begin the season with Double-A Birmingham, Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline reports.
Taylor will join Noah Schultz and Hagen Smith in one of the most loaded rotations in the minors after impressing this spring. Taylor has a chance for three plus pitches and plus command, so if he stays healthy, he could be one of the year's top breakout pitching prospects. He had Tommy John surgery at LSU and had a 2.33 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 32 strikeouts in 19.1 innings last season, although he missed more time with a lat injury.

White Sox's Grant Taylor: Cleared for AFL
Taylor (lat) is slated to pitch in the Arizona Fall League for the Glendale Desert Dogs.
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.

White Sox's Grant Taylor: Out with lat injury
Single-A Kannapolis placed Taylor on its 7-day injured list June 12 and transferred him to its 60-day injured list June 16 while he recovers from a lat injury, Bill Mitchell of Baseball America reports.
The White Sox selected Taylor in the second round of the 2023 First-Year Player Draft while he was already on the mend from Tommy John surgery. He has a high ceiling, and that was on display during his brief stretch of full health, as the 22-year-old righty had a 1.13 ERA, 0.63 WHIP and a 25:1 K:BB in 16 innings across four starts for Kannapolis before succumbing to another injury.

White Sox's Grant Taylor: Makes pro debut
Taylor (elbow) struck out seven and allowed three earned runs on three hits and one walk over 3.1 innings in his season debut Friday for the White Sox's rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate.
A 2023 second-round draft pick out of LSU, Taylor didn't make his professional debut last summer while he completed his recovery from Tommy John surgery, which cost him his entire final season of college. Set to turn 22 years old later this month, Taylor likely won't stick around in rookie ball for long and will likely report to Single-A Kannapolis or High-A Winston-Salem once he gets stretched out a bit more.

White Sox's Grant Taylor: Should return to action in May
Taylor (elbow) is throwing to hitters in extended spring training and should join a low-level affiliate in May, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
The White Sox drafted Taylor in the second round of last year's draft while he was already on the mend from Tommy John surgery at LSU. Taylor's fastball was up to 98 mph and he flashed a new low-90s cutter before the injury. He will head to Single-A Kannapolis or High-A Winston-Salem once healthy.
