Scouting Report
Updated May 17, 2026
Drew Thorpe, 25-year-old right-handed pitcher for the White Sox, was transferred to the 60-day injured list on May 5, 2026. He is recovering from Tommy John surgery performed in April 2025. The move to the 60-day IL does not affect his expected timeline for return, as he was anticipated to miss the first few months of the 2026 season. As of early May, Thorpe has completed seven bullpen sessions as part of his rehabilitation process, but it remains unclear when he will be cleared to begin a rehab assignment. The White Sox used his 40-man roster spot to acquire Trevor Richards in a trade with Philadelphia.
