White Sox Scratch Adrian Houser Ahead Trade Deadline
The Chicago White Sox scratched right-handed pitcher Adrian Houser from his scheduled start against the Philadelphia Phillies in anticipation of a trade before Thursday's MLB trade deadline. Houser, who has been outstanding since signing with the White Sox midseason, posting a 2.10 ERA and ranking fifth among qualified pitchers, remains with the team for now but is expected to be moved. Manager Will Venable explained the decision to switch starters as being in the best interest of all parties, with left-hander Tyler Alexander stepping in to start the game. Despite Houser's struggles with the Mets last year, his recent performance has reignited interest from other clubs, although he is not seen as a game-changing addition. The White Sox, clearly sellers this season, have been transparent with Houser about the trade market surrounding him. The delayed game start due to weather also factors into the pitching strategy, with the team opting for a bullpen day beyond Alexander's start.
