2024 Fantasy Outlook
White appeared in 10 games for the Blue Jays in 2023, pitching to the tune of a 7.11 ERA, 1.74 WHIP with 13 strikeouts in 12.2 innings pitched before being designated for assignment in late July and outrighted to Triple-A Buffalo in August where he finished the season. Added back to the 40-man roster in November, White gives Toronto depth both in the rotation and bullpen as he's been used in a swingman role in recent campaigns. White's path to fantasy viability is likely limited to a streamer in a spot starter role in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
$Signed a one-year contract with the Blue Jays in March of 2024. Traded to the Giants in April of 2024. Traded to the Brewers in May of 2024.
Clears waivers
PMilwaukee Brewers  AAA
June 3, 2024
The Brewers outrighted White to Triple-A Nashville on Monday after he cleared waivers, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
White doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, so Milwaukee had to designate him for assignment and expose him to waivers last Thursday, when the team needed to clear room in the bullpen for Nashville call-up Kevin Herget. After being acquired from the Giants on May 10, White made six relief appearances for Milwaukee and gave up eight runs (six earned) over 8.1 innings. The right-hander has functioned as a starter for most of his professional career, so he could get stretched back out as a member of the rotation at Nashville.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2018
2017
White spent the first four months jumping between Triple-A Oklahoma City and the big club. He started the season in a multi-inning reliever capacity before being stretched out as a starter. He had recorded a 3.70 ERA and 1.25 WHIP with 47 punch outs in 56 innings when he was dealt to Toronto at the trade deadline. White struggled with the Blue Jays, posting a 7.74 ERA and 1.4 WHIP with only 31 strikeouts in 43 frames. The righty was victimized by a bloated .368 BABIP after the trade as well as a 54.3% LOB mark. White needs a strong spring to make the opening day roster, likely as a swingman. He's strictly a matchup play which is not ideal since Rogers Centre favors batters. White's minimal fantasy appeal is relegated to deep AL only leagues, and even then, a dominant reliever is probably a better option.
White was a legitimate prospect for dynasty leagues in 2017, when he missed bats and prevented runs at a strong clip at High-A and Double-A. However, he fell off the map in many dynasty leagues due to inconsistent performance in 2018 and 2019. In 2020, it seemed like he had moved into a long-term reliever role, but he showed well as a starter at Triple-A and in the majors last season, and is now a legitimate sleeper entering his age-27 campaign. White's mid-90s fastball is at least an above-average offering, thanks to his strong command of the pitch -- he locates it in all four quadrants. The big improvement last year was to his mid-to-upper-80s slider, which is now a clear plus pitch. He only threw his slider 18 percent of the time, so upping that usage at the expense of his four-seamer and low-80s curveball could be advantageous. At 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, White has good size and was able to build up to just over 90 innings. He should be allowed to compete for a rotation spot this spring, and even if he has to open the year in the Triple-A rotation, White appears talented enough to have success when he is inevitably called upon sometime this year.
It is not an overly exciting profile, but White's polish and proximity to the big leagues makes him rosterable in most dynasty leagues. He was not as good as his 2.57 ERA at Double-A suggests, but was still very solid for a pitcher with such little pro experience. White was touching 97 mph in spring training but was down to 92 mph in the fall instructional league, so fatigue might have been a factor at the end of his first full season. If his stuff bounces back, he will feature a 92-95 mph fastball that can play as a plus pitch thanks to excellent life, a potentially plus slider/cutter, an average curveball and solid command. That's the repertoire of a No. 3 or No. 4 starter. He missed six weeks with a toe injury last year, but has not dealt with any arm issues since undergoing Tommy John surgery in college. While he hasn't built up a significant workload yet, he has excellent size (6-foot-4, 207 pounds) and should head to Triple-A for his age-23 season.
White is still learning how to pitch, having barely taken the mound in high school and missing time after undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2014. Still, he saw an uptick in fastball velocity during his final season at Santa Clara, developed a nasty cutter/slider, an emerging curveball and has even been working on a changeup. White's strikeout stuff saw him rise to a second-round selection in the 2016 draft, and he did not let up upon entering the minors. Shuffling between the starting rotation and the bullpen, White did not allow a run during his 22 innings, finishing the season at High-A Rancho Cucamonga with a 30:6 K:BB. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound White has the frame, control and necessary pitches to become a legitimate starter, though the Dodgers could eventually end up sending him to the bullpen. He will be 22 years old to begin the 2017 campaign, likely at Low-A, but he could advance quickly with a hot start.

Battling for fifth spot
PToronto Blue Jays  AAA
February 11, 2023
White is expected to battle Yusei Kikuchi for the final spot in the Blue Jays' rotation, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
White was traded to the Blue Jays from the Dodgers at the deadline last summer and was considered one of the better pitching prospects in the Los Angeles system at one point. The right-hander was not effective after being dealt to Toronto as seen in a 7.74 ERA and 1.74 WHIP in 43 innings over 10 appearances -- eight of those starts. White may get a chance to win that final rotation spot, but there's just as much risk, if not more, in his profile to begin 2023.
