 The Chicago White Sox have bolstered their pitching staff by signing right-hander Bryse Wilson to a one-year contract worth $1.05 million. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported these terms prior to the official announcement, noting that Wilson will compete for a rotation spot and can earn up to $250,000 in bonuses. The White Sox made room on their 40-man roster for Wilson by trading catcher Chuckie Robinson to the Angels.
For Wilson, who turns 27 on Friday, this deal serves as an early birthday present. Despite his relatively young age, he has already pitched in parts of seven major league seasons, having made his debut with the Atlanta Braves as a 20-year-old in 2018. Although Wilson was considered a top 100 prospect entering the 2019 season, his career thus far has seen him primarily serve as a swingman rather than an All-Star. As Wilson joins the White Sox, he brings with him the experience of navigating the major leagues from a young age. This opportunity with Chicago offers him a chance to solidify a spot in the rotation and demonstrate the potential that once made him a top prospect.
