Jesse Scholtens's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Chicago White Sox right-hander Jesse Scholtens (elbow) was placed on the 60-day injured list on Tuesday and is scheduled to have surgery to fix a torn UCL in his right elbow on Friday. The 29-year-old will in turn miss all of the 2024 season. The move to place Scholtens on the 60-day IL was made to open up a 40-man roster spot after the team acquired left-hander Bailey Horn from the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday in exchange for right-hander Matthew Thompson. Scholtens also ended last year on the injured list due to a calf strain. The former ninth-round pick of the Padres in 2016 out of Wright State made his big-league debut for the Pale Hose last year and had a 5.29 ERA, a 1.53 WHIP, his first career save, 30 walks and 58 strikeouts in 85 innings over 26 appearances (11 starts). We won't see him again until 2025.
