Chad Kuhl makes a starting spot against Braves

15 seconds agoChicago White Sox right-hander Chad Kuhl was tasked with starting duty on Thursday against the visiting Atlanta Braves. Kuhl was called up by the White Sox on June 14, but all three of his appearances have come out of the bullpen. In his last outing on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers, the 31-year-old threw 4 1/3 innings of relief, giving up two earned runs on six hits (one home run), while walking one and striking out seven. Kuhl has allowed six earned runs on eight hits, while walking five and fanning 11 batters in his three relief appearances for the Sox this year. At Triple-A Charlotte, Kuhl went 1-3 with a 4.34 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with 42 strikeouts and 33 walks in 56 innings over 13 appearances (11 starts). He has a career 5.00 ERA and 1.48 WHIP with a mediocre 20% strikeout rate in eight big league seasons and makes for a desperate fantasy streamer on Thursday.—Keith Hernandez-RotoBaller
