Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Davis Martin, 29-year-old RHP for the Chicago White Sox, is having an exceptional 2026 season. Through early May, he posted a 1.62 ERA (second-lowest in MLB) with 52 strikeouts and 10 walks over 50 innings. He recently delivered back-to-back dominant performances: 7 scoreless innings with 10 K's against the Angels (85 pitches, 63 strikes) and 6 innings allowing 1 run with 9 K's against the Mariners. He has extended a streak to 17 consecutive starts with 3 or fewer earned runs, approaching Mark Buehrle's White Sox record of 18. Martin is 5-1 with a 1.00 WHIP and has struck out at least 7 batters in 4 consecutive outings. His improved arsenal features a more effective cutter and slider, complementing his fastball. He's become a stabilizing force for the White Sox rotation and is pitching as well as anyone in baseball.
