The New York Yankees have been playing musical chairs with pitchers this offseason, shuffling arms through waivers in search of the right mix. One of the more intriguing names caught in the shuffle was Owen White, a former top prospect who briefly landed in the Bronx before being claimed by the Chicago White Sox.
The Yankees announced the move via X: “Earlier today, RHP Owen White was claimed off waivers by the Chicago White Sox.” While his stay in pinstripes was short-lived, White is likely to get a much longer leash in Chicago, where the White Sox are in dire need of pitching depth.
