Spencer Adams started for Round Rock. He was a second round pick of the Chicago White Sox in 2014 who, it appears, last pitched in affiliated ball in 2019. He didn’t pitch at all after 2019 until 2025, when he spent the season with Gary in the independent American Association. He was pitching for Gastonia in the Atlanta League before the Rangers apparently signed him so he could provide a body for Round Rock’s pitching staff.
