Contract selected The White Sox selected Smith's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Impact The White Sox have exhausted their bullpen depth across their last two games, so they'll bring up Smith and Tanner McDougal to inject their staff with some fresh arms. Smith missed about a month of action after suffering a shoulder injury in June but has given up just one run in 6.1 innings since returning. He'll presumably take on a middle-relief role to begin his big-league career but projects as a starter in the long term.

Promotion coming The White Sox are expected to select Smith's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Smith turned in a 4.58 ERA and 1.37 WHIP in 57 innings across 15 starts before moving to the bullpen in July, and he has since given up just one run while fanning 10 batters over 6.1 frames. The 22-year-old will now get an opportunity to contribute for the big club during the final months of the season but is likely to remain in the bullpen to begin his MLB career.

AUGUST 8 • ROTOWIRE

Returns from IL Triple-A Charlotte reinstated Smith (shoulder) from its 7-day injured list Sunday.

Impact The 22-year-old lefty will rejoin the Triple-A club after a five-week stint on the shelf due to a left shoulder impingement. Over 15 starts with Charlotte this season, Smith has submitted a 4.58 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 84:37 K:BB across 57 frames.

Nursing shoulder impingement Smith will be shut down for two weeks after being diagnosed with a left shoulder impingement, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Smith will require two weeks to get ramped back up following the shutdown period, so he's looking at four weeks away from games in a best-case scenario. The left-hander had seemed close to getting his first opportunity at the major-league level, but that will not happen anytime soon now. Smith has collected a 4.67 ERA and 77:36 K:BB over 52 innings covering 14 starts with Triple-A Charlotte in 2026.

Roughed up in latest Triple-A start Smith yielded eight runs (seven earned) on six hits and three walks while striking out five batters across 4.1 innings for Triple-A Charlotte in Saturday's 11-7 loss to Oklahoma Ci...

Impact Back on Thursday, White Sox manager Will Venable told Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com that Smith was a candidate to be called up to start for the big club Saturday, but Chicago ultimately decided to wait until the following week to break in a new fifth starter. While Smith could still remain in the mix for a call-up, the rough showing against Oklahoma City might have tempered the White Sox's enthusiasm about promoting him. The 22-year-old lefty has generated an eye-popping 84 punchouts over 57 innings at Triple-A this season, but he's walked 15.9 percent of the batters he's faced and has surrendered eight home runs.

JUNE 15 • ROTOWIRE

Could start Saturday for Sox Manager Will Venable said Thursday that the team is considering promoting Smith to start Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

Impact The White Sox don't currently have a probable pitcher listed for Saturday's contest, but Smith could get the nod after posting a 3.76 ERA and 1.32 WHIP while striking out 79 batters in 52.2 innings at Triple-A Charlotte. The 22-year-old southpaw has found consistent success on the mound throughout his minor-league career, though that consistency would certainly be put to the test while making his MLB debut against one of the league's most dynamic offenses. Venable noted there is also a chance the team keeps Smith in the minors for a while longer and relies on its bullpen to get through Saturday.

Missing bats at Triple-A Smith has a 2.00 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB in nine innings for Triple-A Charlotte.

Impact Noah Schultz already earned a promotion from Triple-A, but the White Sox still have Smith and Tanner McDougal making waves in the Knights' rotation, so the pipeline of impact arms to the big-league rotation should continue in the coming weeks. Despite his success, Smith has thrown just three innings in each Triple-A start, so he would presumably start to ramp up to five-plus innings before earning the call to the show.

APRIL 14 • ROTOWIRE

Set for Triple-A debut Smith will begin the 2026 season with Triple-A Charlotte.

Impact Smith had a strong showing this spring, striking out eight batters with one walk in 3.2 innings across three appearances. The quality of Smith's stuff is not in question, he just needs to throw enough strikes to start. Last year, the 6-foot-3 southpaw had a 3.57 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 17.6 percent walk rate in 20 starts at Double-A. If he can come anywhere close to the 5.9 percent walk rate he logged this spring, Smith could be in the big-league rotation this summer.

MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE

Moved to minor-league camp The White Sox reassigned Smith to minor-league camp Monday.

Impact The 22-year-old southpaw will open the 2026 season in the minors, likely with Double-A Birmingham. That's where he spent all of last year, posting a 3-3 record across 20 starts with a 3.57 ERA, 1.30 wHIP and 108:56 K:BB across 75.2 innings. Smith recorded a 33.9 percent strikeout rate in Double-A and could see his first taste of major-league action this year.
