Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Rays in March of 2026.
Heads to IL due to wrist strain
The Rays placed Scholtens on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a right wrist strain.
Analysis
Scholtens presumably sustained the injury during his relief appearance against the Orioles on Monday, when he was charged with the loss and a blown save after surrendering five runs (three earned) on four hits over 1.1 innings. Tampa Bay signed right-hander Craig Kimbrel to a one-year deal and will have him take over Scholtens' spot on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Scholtens probably would have made a bunch of starts for the feeble White Sox in 2024 had he been healthy, but the 30-year-old blew out his elbow and needed Tommy John surgery in early March. He could be in the mix for the rotation again in Chicago, once healthy, but a late start to the 2025 campaign is possible. Scholtens struck out around a batter per inning in the minors, but he had just a 15.4 percent strikeout rate with the big club in 2023 while splitting time between the rotation and bullpen.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to start Monday
Scholtens could be called up to start Monday against the Guardians after Mike Clevinger was placed on the injured list with wrist inflammation, per Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com.
Analysis
Manager Pedro Grifol said earlier in the week that Scholtens would be the "next man up" when Chicago needed another starting pitcher, and there's now an opening in the rotation. The 29-year-old made two relief appearances for the White Sox in April, but he's now stretched out as a starter with Triple-A Charlotte and has a 3.99 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 42:11 K:BB across 38.1 innings.
