2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ellard, an 8th-round pick of the White Sox in 2021, made his major-league debut last season. The 6-foot-4 southpaw struck out 59 over 40.2 innings with Triple-A Charlotte before he was recalled in late-July to reinforce a bullpen that lost several high-leverage relievers via trades. Ellard pitched to a solid 2.75 ERA and 1.07 WHIP over his first 20 appearances with Chicago, compiling a 24:9 K:BB across 19.2 innings during that span. A few rough outings over the final week inflated his ratios, but the 27-year-old likely demonstrated enough potential to make the 2025 Opening Day bullpen. Ellard is a candidate for an important high-leverage role with the White Sox, but improving his control (11.9 percent walk rate) will go a long way towards earning those opportunities.

Signed a one-year contract with the White Sox in March of 2025.
Serving as opener Wednesday
Ellard will be the White Sox's opening pitcher in Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Brooke Fletcher of Chicago Sports Network reports.
Analysis
Ellard has gone more than one inning in just four of 16 appearances this season, so it will be a true opener assignment for the lefty. Tyler Alexander and Wikelman Gonzalez should be available to cover multiple innings out of Chicago's bullpen.
