Jared Shuster - Page 4 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Stretching out as starter Shuster will build up his pitch count this spring while competing for a rotation spot with the White Sox, Steve Stockmar of MLB.com reports.

Impact Shuster has had experience as both a starter and reliever at the big-league level, though he was used nearly exclusively out of the bullpen by the White Sox in 2024. That could change in the current campaign, as he'll work to build up his pitch count, beginning with a Cactus League outing Saturday. While acknowledging those plans, manager Will Venable didn't commit to Shuster beginning the 2025 campaign in the rotation.

FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Sharp in spot start Shuster came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to the Angels, giving up one hit and striking out one over three scoreless innings.

Impact The 26-year-old lefty was making his fourth start in 37 big-league appearances this season, and the three frames represented Shuster's biggest workload since a four-inning relief stint July 26. He's put together decent numbers in a swingman role this year, posting a 4.35 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 52:29 K:BB through 70.1 innings, but it's not clear whether the White Sox will give him another crack at winning a full-time spot in the rotation next spring.

Leading off in bullpen game Shuster is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Angels, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Shuster will take the hill first for the White Sox in what's likely to be a bullpen day featuring a parade of relievers once the left-hander exits the contest. Considering that he's worked two-plus innings in seven of his last 11 appearances, Shuster should be able to offer more length than the typical opening pitcher, but he's still unlikely to work deep enough into the contest to qualify for a win.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Takes loss as opener Shuster (1-4) took the loss against Cleveland on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits while striking out five batters over 2.2 innings.

Impact Though Shuster was deemed an opener for the contest, he tossed 47 pitches, 35 of which were strikes. That good control helped him finish with five punchouts and no walks, but the southpaw also gave up three extra-base hits, including a solo homer to David Fry. Shuster has tossed at least two frames in 20 of his 35 appearances this season, making him a logical candidate to work as an opener -- which he's now done three times this season -- when the White Sox decide to go that route.

Takes loss as opener Shuster (1-4) took the loss against Cleveland on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits while striking out five batters over 2.2 innings.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Serving as opener Monday Shuster will be the White Sox' opening pitcher in Monday's game against the Guardians, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Impact Shuster is stretched out to go multiple innings, if needed, but Nick Nastrini is a prime candidate to cover the bulk of the frames in the series opener. It will be the third opener assignment this season for Shuster, who allowed two runs over 3.2 innings in the first two.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Opening final game before break Shuster is listed as the White Sox's opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Impact According to James Fegan of SoxMachine.com, White Sox manager Pedro Grifol had previously said Saturday that Kuhl was likely to start Sunday's series finale, but Shuster will instead get the ball for Chicago in its final game before the All-Star break. Shuster has prior starting experience, but he's mostly worked out of the bullpen since being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 1, covering no more than 3.1 innings in any of his subsequent 18 appearances. He'll be taking the hill on one day rest Sunday, so Shuster is unlikely to work more than once through the batting order before turning the game over to Kuhl and the rest of the White Sox bullpen.

JULY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Throws two innings Shuster (1-1) took the loss Thursday against Cleveland, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks across four innings. He struck out two.

Impact Shuster drew his first start of the season Thursday. Considering he'd thrown three innings four times this season and had only thrown one-third of an inning since June 27, there was optimism he'd be able to go deeper into Thursday's game but only made it two innings before being yanked. It's unclear if he was on a pitch count or if his removal was due to a lackluster performance. Regardless, the 25-year-old should be expected to head back to the bullpen, especially with Mike Clevinger (elbow/neck) expected to return next week.

JULY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Thursday Shuster will start Thursday's game against the Guardians, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Shuster has appeared in 17 games for the White Sox this season, posting a 3.15 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 34.1 innings, but Thursday will mark his first start of the year. The 25-year-old southpaw worked almost exclusively as a starter throughout his professional career before joining the White Sox in the offseason, so he should be able to pitch relatively deep into Thursday's game before Chicago turns to its bullpen.

JULY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Solid in 2024 debut Shuster allowed three hits and no walks while striking out two across three scoreless innings Monday against the Guardians.

Impact Shuster was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday and threw the most innings on a bullpen day for the White Sox. He didn't show overwhelming stuff -- he generated four swinging strikes on 45 total pitches -- but managed to keep the ball on the ground to avoid any damage. Shuster may not immediately stick on the big-league roster as the team tries to cover innings while Mike Clevinger ramps up, but the White Sox have plenty of incentive to see if Shuster has the potential to stick in the major-league rotation at some point this summer.

APRIL 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Triple-A Shuster was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte by the White Sox on Monday.

Impact Tanner Banks will serve as an opener Monday in Cleveland, but Shuster looks to be the prime candidate to follow him in bulk relief. Shuster could also be under consideration for a start until Mike Clevinger is ready. The lefty was knocked around for seven runs and four home runs over four innings in his lone start with Charlotte this season.

Demoted after short start Shuster was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Impact Shuster was called up to start Saturday in Miami but will return to the minors after he surrendered five runs (four earned) across three innings. The rookie left-hander has a 5.64 ERA and 30:26 K:BB across 11 starts (52.2 innings) this season.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles in return to rotation Shuster did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks over three innings against Miami. He struck out two.

Impact It was a disastrous start for Shuster as the rookie surrendered a home run to Luis Arraez to lead off the bottom of the first, followed by a three-run homer to Yuli Gurriel just three batters later. The lefty would then go 1-2-3 through the second inning before allowing a fifth run in the third, though only four runs would be charged to him on the afternoon. In his first start since being recalled to the majors, Shuster saw his command issues resurface and he's now allowed four earned runs in each of his last three big league outings. He's also given up two home runs in two of his last three starts.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Confirmed as Saturday's starter Shuster will start Saturday's game against the Marlins, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Shuster was recalled to the majors Wednesday but has not pitched since. His last outing came Sept. 8 with Triple-A Gwinnett, when he worked six innings. Assuming he's effective, Shuster should be able to work deep enough into the game to qualify for a win.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2023 • AJC.COM

Back in big leagues Shuster was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Shuster looks to be in line for long relief for the time being, but it's possible he could net a spot start if Atlanta wants to give their rotation members some extra rest. The rookie left-hander holds a 5.26 ERA over 10 starts with the big club this season.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to Triple-A Atlanta optioned Shuster to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

Impact Shuster won't end up getting another turn through the rotation after he stepped in as Atlanta's No. 5 starter this past weekend in place of the injured Yonny Chirinos (elbow). He failed to escape the fifth inning in his start against the Giants on Sunday, taking the loss while giving up four earned runs on four hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. Atlanta called up right-hander Darius Vines from Triple-A in a corresponding move, and he could end up replacing Shuster as the big club's fifth starter this week if he isn't needed in relief over the next couple of days.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tagged with four runs Shuster (4-3) allowed four runs on four hits and two walks over 4.2 innings Sunday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Giants.

Impact Shuster gave up two runs through four innings and was charged with two more during the Giants' four-run fifth frame. It was his first MLB appearance since June 24. In between his last two MLB outings, he made eight starts with Triple-A Gwinnett, posting an unsightly 7.32 ERA during that stretch. Shuster now owns a 5.26 ERA and 28:24 K:BB through 49.2 MLB innings. If he sees another turn in the rotation, he'd be projected to face the Dodgers on the road.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Confirmed for Sunday's start Shuster will start for Atlanta on Sunday in San Francisco, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Shuster has been up with the big club for a few days and available in relief, but he has been slated to start Sunday as long as he wasn't needed out of the bullpen before then. The left-hander has been unimpressive to this point in the majors, posting a 5.00 ERA and 25:22 K:BB over nine starts.

Summoned to big leagues Shuster was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

Impact Shuster will provide some immediate protection for the bullpen but according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com is also a candidate to draw a start Sunday in San Francisco, depending on how/if he's needed leading into the weekend. The rookie left-hander holds a 5.00 ERA and 25:22 K:BB over nine starts with Atlanta this season.
