The White Sox have signed right-hander to a minor league deal, according to his at MLB.com. Hes been a signed to the Complex League for now but will presumably move up to a higher affiliate after ramping up. Sedlock, 29 in June, has a tiny amount of major league experience, Jack Lopez Jersey more like a sip of coffee than a cup of coffee. He appeared in one game for the Orioles in 2022, to sing three innings. He allowed five earned runs that day while i suing one walk and striking out three opponents. After that one outing, he was outrighted off the roster and traded to the Tigers. He become a free agent at seasons end and didnt sign anywhere for the 2023 season. Prior to that major league debut and gap year, the righty was a notable prospect for the Orioles. Selected 27th overall in 2016, he was considered the #2 prospect in that clubs system by in 2017. However, injuries have largely gotten in the way since then, something that attributes to a heavy workload during Sedlocks college years. The righty to sed 101 1/3 innings for Illinois in his draft year and then another 27 frames at Low-A after being selected, but he hasnt been able to reach 100 innings pitched in any season since then. Along the way, he had forearm and shoulder injuries and also required surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome. He has a combined 4.46 earned run average in the 422 minor league innings that hes thrown over the years, striking out 21.6% of batters while walking 10.7%. Its hard to know what to expect from Sedlock at this point. There will likely be some rust after sitting out all of last year but its also po sible the rest allowed his body to recover in some way. For the Sox, theres little harm in taking a flier on a former first-rounder to see what happens. If Sedlock looks good after getting into game shape, hell give the staff some non-roster depth. The Sox have recently traded away most of the best pitchers as part of their ongoing rebuild and are likely to make make even more trades this summer since they are currently the worst team in the league at 3-15. If Sedlock gets into good form in the next few months, there could be a path for him to get back to the big leagues. Jose Cisnero Jersey
