Rangers Acquire Scott Carroll From White Sox

By Steve Adams | July 20, 2016 at 6:31pm CDT

The Rangers have acquired minor league righty Scott Carroll from the White Sox in exchange for cash considerations, according to an announcement from both clubs. Carroll has been assigned to Double-A Frisco for the time and will not require a spot on the 40-man roster for Texas, as he’d been outrighted by the ChiSox last week.

The Rangers have long been on the lookout for pitching help, and the Carroll pickup won’t impact those pursuits, though it’ll give the team an arm with some big league experience to call upon in the event that a spot start or two is needed. Carroll, 31, has spent the past three and a half seasons in the White Sox organization, making 19 starts and a total of 47 appearances dating back to 2014. In that time, he’s posted a 4.60 ERA and averaged five strikeouts and 3.2 walks per nine innings pitched over the life of 168 1/3 frames. His minor league numbers are stunningly similar, as he has a career 4.65 ERA with 5.4 K/9 against 3.3 BB/9 in 398 2/3 innings at the Triple-A level.

    Oh no. Another playoff bound team which opted for a no-name reliever to fortify its bullpen.
    No one wants Miller or Chapman.

    /sarcasm

      If you don’t want to read about organizational depth moves go to ESPN’s comment section.

      K, bye.

        Perhaps I should have put “sarcasm” in caps. Or bold. Hmm…

    This is the first good move Williams and his yes man Hahn have made in years. Dumb and dumber have been on a real bad streak with player moves, but they haven’t been above .500 in a few seasons. Thanks boys.

      This move will propel the White Sox to the World Series. Seriously though, Williams, Hahn and Ventura are like the Three Stooges. No clue. I have become so disenchanted with this team. Wont make the big money signings or trades to be good enough to make the playoffs…and wont trade their veterans and go young and rebuild. Perpetual purgatory is just nothingness.

    Well we will have to see if your playoff bound team that doesn’t want a top three closer even makes it to the World Series. This only shows these teams aren’t serious about winning it all

      Yeah, because all their prospects and available cash went to acquiring Scott Carroll. /s
