Brewers Designate Mitch White For Assignment

By Steve Adams | May 30, 2024 at 10:52am CDT

The Brewers announced Thursday that right-hander Mitch White has been designated for assignment. His spot on the active roster goes to righty Kevin Herget, who has been recalled from Triple-A Nashville.

Milwaukee acquired White from the Giants in exchange for cash just under three weeks ago. San Francisco had also designated the right-hander for assignment prior to that swap. White made six appearances with the Brewers, pitching 8 1/3 innings and yielding six earned runs on eight hits and four walks (two of them intentional). He punched out six batters. On the season as a whole, White has tossed 23 2/3 innings and been roughed up for a 7.23 ERA between the Blue Jays, Giants and Brewers. He’s fanned just 11.8% of his opponents against a matching 11.8% walk rate.

White, 29, has pitched in parts of five big league seasons. Once a prospect of note within the Dodgers organization, the 2016 second-rounder had a nice early-career run in L.A. before stumbling following a trade to Toronto. In 105 2/3 frames as a Dodger, White recorded a 3.58 ERA with a 22% strikeout rate and 8.3% walk rate. He’s since pitched to a 5.45 ERA with a diminished 17.7% strikeout rate.

White is out of minor league options, so the Brewers didn’t have the choice to send him to Triple-A. He’ll either be traded, placed on outright waivers or released within the next week. Because of that lack of options, any team to claim White or make a small trade for the righty will need to carry him on the big league roster.

      He’ll revert to his Dodger days and become a productive member of their bullpen. It can definitely happen.

      “Wasted more time”…While the Brewers have been slowly “wasting time”, they have built a nice little cushion of near 5 games in the N.L Central

    I’d love to have a beer with Mitch. Sit down and figure out what the heck is going on? He’s proven he has the stuff – all of this funny business is between the ears I put some blame on the blue jays this year using him only for mop up duty. That’s one of those “If this is what you think of me then let me outta here or this is what you’ll get” It was almost narcissistic how they treated him.

    All the best Mitch!! Take some time for yourself!

          I don’t know if anyone ever told you this but baseball is hard. guys who have had some success in the past against arguably the best players in the world are going to get chances until they prove they don’t have it anymore. guy is still young and it wasn’t too long ago that he was really good, teams with a need are going to give him a shot
