Player Outlook
Noah Schultz showed off one of the best sliders in the minors last season while also dealing with shoulder trouble that adds risk to the profile. The 6-foot-9 southpaw was selected out of high school with the 26th overall pick in 2022, but he has been limited to 27 pro innings and he turns 21 in August. The lanky southpaw boasts a mid-90s fastball that plays up due to his deceptive release point to go with his wipeout low-80s slider. He dominated Single-A hitters in 10 short starts and didn't need his third-pitch changeup much. Schultz looks like an elite pitching prospect if we're just judging on stuff, projection and in-game results, but he's also extremely risky given the injuries already on his ledger and his inability (thus far) to handle a starter's workload.

  • White Sox's Noah Schultz: Likely to debut Saturday

    Rotowire
    White Sox pitching coordinator Matt Zaleski said Schultz (shoulder) is scheduled to pitch in his first game this spring Saturday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. Schultz will presumably pitch in a minor-league game rather than in the Cactus League, given that he has yet to make his debut in full-season ball. The White Sox have been proceeding cautiously with the 2022 first-round draft pick in spring training after he finished the 2023 season on the injured list at Single-A Kannapolis due to a left shoulder impingement. He also missed extensive time earlier last season due to a forearm strain, resulting in him logging just 27 total innings for Kannapolis. Zaleski noted that Schultz has been throwing in live batting practices up to this point in the spring and has sported a fastball that checks in at around 96-to-98 miles per hour, per Merkin. Though all seems well for Schultz on the health front and the expectation is that he'll open the season with Kannapolis or High-A Winston-Salem rather than sticking around at extended spring training, the White Sox plan to limit him to around 65 to 80 innings in 2024, according to Zaleski.

  • White Sox's Noah Schultz: Hits IL with shoulder issue

    Rotowire
    Single-A Kannapolis placed Schultz on its 7-day injured list Sunday with a left shoulder impingement, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. Though Schultz's diagnosis of a shoulder impingement rather than a shoulder strain amounts to positive news, the injury could still be enough to keep the 20-year-old on the shelf for the remainder of the 2023 campaign. Schultz had previously missed the first two months of the season with a forearm strain before he was cleared to make his professional debut June 2. In 10 starts with Kannapolis, Schultz has compiled a 1.33 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 38:6 K:BB in 27 innings.

  • White Sox's Noah Schultz: Set for pro debut

    Rotowire
    Schultz (forearm) is set to make his pro debut with Low-A Kannapolis on Friday, James Fox of FutureSox reports. Schultz has been working his way back from a forearm strain suffered in spring training but has reportedly looked terrific during workouts in Arizona. It's an aggressive assignment considering Schultz won't turn 20 until August and has not yet made an appearance in affiliated ball, but it's one which points to how highly the White Sox think of the young hurler.

  • White Sox's Noah Schultz: Throwing live batting practice

    Rotowire
    Schultz (forearm) will throw live batting practice Friday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. It will be the second live BP session Schultz has thrown since he went down with a left forearm strain in spring training. Once healthy, the young southpaw will likely be assigned to rookie ball.
