Impact Burke pitched well out of the bullpen in his major-league debut Tuesday versus the Guardians, yielding one unearned run with three strikeouts over three innings of work. The 24-year-old has made 16 starts this season with Triple-A Charlotte, collecting a 4.62 ERA and 86:36 K:BB across 64.1 innings. Burke looks to be in line to start either Sunday at home against the Athletics or Monday on the road versus the Angels.

Works in long relief Tuesday Burke struck out three batters and allowed one unearned run on three hits and one walk over three innings of relief in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to the Guardians.

Impact Called up from Triple-A Charlotte earlier Tuesday, Burke was put to work right away in his MLB debut, entering the contest in the top of the seventh with the White Sox facing a four-run deficit. Burke escaped his debut outing with an unblemished ERA, even though he was at fault for the Guardians' final run of the night in the top of the ninth, when he committed a throwing error while attempting to pick off Steven Kwan at first base. Prior to his promotion, Burke had been a full-time member of the rotation at Charlotte, making 16 starts while logging a 4.62 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 86:36 K:BB in 64.1 innings. The White Sox are currently running with a four-man rotation, so Burke could be the top choice the next time the club requires a fifth starter.

Promoted Tuesday The White Sox selected Burke's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

Impact The right-hander is up with Chicago for his first taste of the big leagues after posting a 4.62 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 86:36 K:BB over 64.1 frames in Charlotte's rotation. Burke should immediately be available out of the bullpen for the White Sox, but he's possible he's given a start or two with Nick Nastrini being sent to Triple-A in a corresponding transaction.

Roughed up in debut Burke (shoulder) returned from Triple-A Charlotte's 7-day injured list Tuesday and worked 1.2 innings that day in a 5-4 loss to Louisville, giving up five earned runs on one hit an...

Impact Burke's season debut was delayed after he experienced shoulder soreness coming out of spring training, and he probably could have benefited from a longer wait before making his debut, given how poorly it went. He needed 43 pitches just to record five outs and threw only 19 strikes in the outing. The White Sox haven't indicated that Burke suffered any setbacks with the shoulder in the start, but the fact that he's back off the active roster again suggests that he likely won't be cleared to take the hill the next time his turn comes up in the Charlotte rotation.
