White Sox to Promote Noah Schultz to Birmingham Barons

A major move is taking place in the Chicago White Sox farm system. According to multiple reports , Noah Schultz, the towering 20-year-old left-handed pitcher, is being promoted to Double-A Birmingham.

This move marks a significant step in Schultz's promising career, underscoring the White Sox' belief in his potential as a cornerstone of their starting rotation in the near future.

Impressive Start for Noah Schultz

Selected 26th overall in the 2022 MLB Draft, Schultz has rapidly ascended the White Sox' prospect rankings. He's currently ranked as the organization's No. 2 prospect, according to MLB.com . His professional career stats are nothing short of what we like to say here at Sox On Tap "Cool and Tough": a 3.95 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, and an extraordinary 13.8 K/9 over 27.1 innings with High-A Winston-Salem this season.

Schultz flashed some impressive stuff in his last appearance for the Dash, tossing four innings while giving up just three hits and two runs.

A New Challenge Awaits

Moving to Double-A Birmingham introduces Schultz to a new level of competition, as he joins a Barons team known for its formidable pitching staff. It's anticipated that one of Birmingham's current starters will be moved up to make room for Schultz.

While we may not see Schultz in a White Sox uniform until at least 2025, his journey through the minors is a storyline the South Side faithful will want to follow closely.
