Hit hard in loss
Urquidy (2-1) earned the loss after giving up five runs on six hits and four walks through three innings. He struck out two.
Analyse
After throwing six scoreless innings with eight strikeouts in his last outing Wednesday against the Cubs, Urquidy lasted just three innings Monday. The 31-year-old has made just three appearances in his short tenure with the White Sox, this being his first start. In those three games, Urquidy has posted a 5.68 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 13:4 K:BB over 12.2 innings. The right-hander is slated to make his next start Saturday against the Twins.

Slated for first big-league start since 2023
Urquidy will start Monday's game against the Rangers at Rate Field, James Fegan of The Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analyse
After faring well in bulk relief in his first two appearances with Chicago following his promotion from Triple-A Charlotte on Aug. 14, Urquidy will get a look as a traditional starter as he makes his third turn through the rotation. The start will be Urquidy's first in the big leagues since Sept. 29, 2023, when he was a member of the Astros. The 31-year-old righty will tentatively line up for a two-start week, with his next appearance coming during the White Sox's weekend series in Minnesota.

Stellar in bulk role
Urquidy (2-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Cubs, allowing two hits over six scoreless innings. He struck out eight.
Analyse
Making just his second appearance with the White Sox, Urquidy delivered a dominant performance in relief Wednesday, as he turned in six scoreless innings after Sean Newcomb pitched the first two frames. The outing lowered Urquidy's ERA to 5.06 on the season with a 1.50 WHIP and 17:2 K:BB across 16 innings between the White Sox and Pirates. It remains to be seen whether Chicago will deploy Urquidy as a traditional starter or in a bulk role again his next time out, which currently lines up to come at home next week against the Rangers.

Pitches in bulk relief Friday
Urquidy (1-1) was the pitcher of record in Friday's 9-5 win over the Tigers, covering 3.2 innings out of the bullpen and striking out three batters while giving up three earned runs on five hits and no walks.
Analyse
Making his White Sox debut after being called up from Triple-A Charlotte earlier in the day, Urquidy essentially ended up taking over the rotation spot that previously belonged to Noah Schultz, who was optioned to the minors Aug. 8. Though Sean Newcomb drew the start Friday, he ended up serving as more of an opener, covering 1.1 innings before Urquidy took over in bulk relief. While Urquidy was far from dominant over his 52-pitch appearance, he received enough run support to come away with a win. Expect Urquidy to remain in the rotation for another turn, with the White Sox likely to deploy him as a traditional starter or bulk reliever during Wednesday's series finale with the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
