1 day agoAccording to Scott Merkin of MLB.com, Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Drew Thorpe (elbow) received a cortisone shot in his right elbow due to soreness and will likely miss the start of spring training. The rookie underwent an elbow operation in September to remove a burn spur but appears to have faced a setback in his recovery. Merkin noted that Thorpe is expected to begin playing catch later this week but will start spring training "behind." Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the offseason. Last summer, Thorpe was directly promoted to the major leagues from the Double-A level. Across his first 44 1/3 major league innings, the Cal Poly product posted a 5.48 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP. Through 60 innings at Double-A, Thorpe held a stellar 1.35 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP. If he were to miss the start of the season, Bryse Wilson would likely receive starting opportunities.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
