The White Sox will start pitcher Carlos Rodon at Triple-A Charlotte this season, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Rodon had a solid spring, striking out 19 batters, walking three and recording a 3.65 ERA in 12 1/3 innings. The third overall pick in the 2014 MLB June Amateur Draft, Rodon posted a 2.96 ERA in 24.1 innings with three teams in the minors a year ago.
“Whatever it is they need me to do and whatever it is they want to see so I can be in a position to pitch for them, so be it,” Rodon told the Sun-Times. “If I have to wear my underwear inside out, I’ll do it. I just want to help this team win.
“I’m going to be up there eventually. Just being comfortable with the opponents and my teammates [was valuable]. It was just an overall fun experience.”
