Davis Martin Opening Season In Starting Rotation

Chicago White Sox right-handed pitcher Davis Martin will open the season in the starting rotation. Martin spent most of his time in the rotation last season and will open the 2025 campaign in a similar role. Through his 10 starts last season, Martin held a 4.37 ERA with a 1.42 WHIP across 47 1/3 innings of work. He tallied 44 punchouts and showed weak command as he served up 20 free passes. He allowed four or more runs in three of his starts. Under the hood, he generated a modest 4.02 xERA with a solid .226 xBA. He also generated ground balls at an above-average 46.9 percent rate, placing him in the 75th percentile. Across 76 2/3 innings at the Triple-A level, Martin tallied an impressive 92 punchouts but has yet to flash this strikeout upside in the majors. However, given that he will have a role in the rotation, he will have value in AL-only formats.

Davis Martin Joining Starting Rotation

Chicago White Sox pitcher Davis Martin is set to join the starting rotation soon. The White Sox are in need of another starter after Erick Fedde was traded on Monday. Martin seems like an odd choice considering he's working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He gave up one run over 2 2/3 innings of work during his season debut over the weekend. Davis posted a 4.83 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 48/19 K/BB ratio over 14 appearances (nine starts) with the White Sox in 2022. Fantasy managers in need of pitching help should probably look elsewhere for help.

Davis Martin To Start Throwing Bullpens Next Week

Chicago White Sox right-hander Davis Martin's (elbow) rehab from Tommy John surgery has gone well. His body and arm are feeling good and he is scheduled to start throwing bullpen sessions next Monday. The 27-year-old hurler went under the knife last May and continues to work his way back for the 2024 season. He will open the regular season on the injured list and probably isn't going to be able to join Chicago's bullpen until the second half of the year. Martin made his big-league debut with the Pale Hose in 2022 and had a 4.83 ERA (4.28 FIP) and 1.29 WHIP with 19 walks and 48 strikeouts in 63 1/3 innings over 14 appearances (nine starts). Given his long layoff, Martin is most likely to return to Chicago as a reliever once he's ready to make his season debut in 2024.
