What's Happening?
The Chicago White Sox are set to recall Jonathan Cannon from Triple-A Charlotte to pitch in bulk relief during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Cannon, who has a 5.34 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over 96 innings in the majors, will follow opener Fraser Ellard in the game. Despite facing a Twins offense with a .696 OPS since August, Cannon is not considered a reliable fantasy option due to his recent performance, where he allowed at least five earned runs in each of his last three major league outings.
Why It's Important?
Cannon's return to the White Sox's pitching lineup comes at a crucial time as the team seeks to fill a vacancy in their starting rotation. His performance could impact the team's strategy and standings in the league. For fantasy baseball enthusiasts, Cannon's recent struggles make him a risky choice, highlighting the importance of monitoring player stats and matchups. The game against the Twins presents an opportunity for Cannon to improve his record and contribute to the team's success.
