Overview

  • The Chicago White Sox have signed Adrian Houser to a one-year, $1.35 million contract to address pitching depth issues.
  • Houser, 32, will make his season debut Tuesday night against the Seattle Mariners, stepping in for Bryse Wilson, who was originally scheduled to start.
  • Yoendrys Gomez, who posted an 8.10 ERA in three relief appearances this season, was designated for assignment to clear roster space for Houser.
  • Houser was recently released by the Texas Rangers after going 2-2 with a 5.03 ERA in nine games (eight starts) for Triple-A Round Rock this season.
  • The White Sox have faced significant rotation challenges this season, including injuries and inconsistent performances, prompting the addition of the veteran pitcher.
