• White Sox's Davis Martin: Nabs first win in season debut

  Rotowire Mar 30, 2026

  Martin (1-0) tallied the win Monday against the Marlins, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out six. Martin wasn't spectacular in his season debut, but he received plenty of run support and was able to nab his first win of the year. The right-hander wasn't particularly efficient either, throwing just 54 of his 92 pitches for strikes, and three of his hits given up went for extra bases. Martin's next start is scheduled for this weekend at home versus the Blue Jays, making him difficult to trust in fantasy lineups in a tough matchup.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Fans five in no-decision

  Rotowire Sep 26, 2025

  Martin didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Yankees, surrendering three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.1 innings. Martin labored through the opening frame, needing 26 pitches to complete the inning, with a run coming across before he was able to escape. The right-hander later gave up back-to-back singles in the fifth inning before being lifted, and both runners eventually came around to score. It was just the third time all season that Martin failed to complete five innings in 25 starts. The 28-year-old will finish the regular season with a 4.10 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 104:48 K:BB across 142.2 innings.

  Rotowire Sep 19, 2025

  Martin (7-10) allowed three runs on six hits and one walk over six innings to earn the win Friday against San Diego. He struck out four. The Chicago right-hander made quick work of the Padres to tally his ninth quality start, completing his six frames on 77 pitches. Davis contained his opponent by generating a 55.0 percent groundball rate, with the three runs allowed scoring on two singles and a groundout. Across 138.1 total innings this season, the 28-year-old now sports a 4.03 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 99:46 K:BB while producing a 44.7 percent groundball rate. Martin currently lines up for a difficult test in his final start of 2025, which projects to come on the road against the Yankees.

Since rejoining the rotation July 22 from a forearm injury, Martin has pitched to a 4.44 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 39:25 K:BB across 46.2 frames. Through 127.1 total innings, the 28-year-old has produced a 4.03 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 92:44 K:BB while giving up 19 homers. Martin projects to make his next start at Cleveland next weekend.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Labors early in no-decision

  Rotowire Aug 28, 2025

  Martin allowed four runs (three earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out five over 3.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Yankees on Thursday. Martin gave up a two-run home run to Cody Bellinger in the first inning and yielded a solo shot to Jazz Chisholm in the second. The Yankees continued to give Martin trouble, and while he didn't yield any additional runs, his pitch count got up early and he was pulled at 81 pitches (50 strikes). This was the first time he's failed to complete four innings all year and just the second time in 21 appearances (20 starts) he's fallen short of five frames. The right-hander has a 4.03 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 85:38 K:BB through 116 innings. His numbers don't pop off the page, but he's been a reliable innings-eater for the White Sox. He's projected to make his next start at Minnesota.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Strikes out seven in third win

  Rotowire Jul 28, 2025

Martin's steady campaign continued Monday, as he threw at least five innings in his eighth consecutive start.

Martin owns a quality 3.87 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 63:26 K:BB over 90.2 frames, and he's next set to take the hill this weekend against the Angels in Anaheim.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Struggles with command in loss

  Rotowire Jul 23, 2025

  Martin (2-8) took the loss Tuesday against the Rays, allowing four runs (three earned) on three hits and four walks while striking out three in five innings. Martin pitched well outside of a troublesome second frame during which the Rays plated all four of their runs. Excluding the one inning, Martin faced just one over the minimum and ended his night by striking out Yandy Diaz. Martin's record does not properly reflect his performance this season. He now owns a 3.89 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 56:23 K:BB in 85.2 innings and lines up for another start at home against the Phillies next week.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Expected back soon

  Rotowire Jul 19, 2025

  Martin (forearm) is expected to be activated from the injured list within the next week, MLB.com reports. Martin completed 3.2 innings in his last rehab outing with Triple-A Charlotte and looked sharp by allowing only one earned run with a 5:1 K:BB. It's unclear exactly what day he will return to the big-league club, but he isn't listed as Charlotte's probable starter Sunday.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Ready for rehab assignment

  Rotowire Jul 7, 2025

  White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Monday that Martin (forearm) will head out on a minor-league rehab assignment later this week, Jack Ankony of SI.com reports. While Martin won't be ready to return from the 15-day injured list until after the All-Star break, he may need just one or two starts in the minors to build back up after he was initially shelved June 20 due to a right forearm strain. The club revealed that the tentative plan is for Martin to pitch Wednesday and Sunday for Triple-A Charlotte, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. Before getting hurt, Martin had been pitching effectively for Chicago, covering at least six innings in six straight starts while submitting a 3.55 ERA and 1.03 WHIP.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Out with forearm strain

  Rotowire Jun 20, 2025

  The White Sox placed Martin on the 15-day injured list Friday due to a right forearm strain. The right-hander was penciled in to start Friday against the Blue Jays, but he's instead landed on the IL. Martin will be eligible to return from the shelf in early July, but given the nature of the injury, he could wind up missing more than the minimum 15 days. Chicago has yet to announce a replacement starter for Friday's contest.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Continues to provide length in loss

  Rotowire Jun 13, 2025

  Martin (2-7) took the loss Thursday against the Astros after giving up four runs on six hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out five. Martin continues to supply length for the White Sox, tossing at least six frames for his sixth start in a row. However, the long ball remains an issue for the 28-year-old right-hander, who has now served up at least one homer in four straight outings. Martin owns a 3.79 ERA and 1.21 WHIP but has just 53 punchouts through 80.2 innings, so his lack of strikeout potential will likely render him more of a deep-league streaming option versus the Cardinals his next time out.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Logs quality start in no-decision

  Rotowire May 25, 2025

  Martin did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 5-4 loss against the Rangers, allowing two runs on four hits and three walks with two strikeouts over six innings. Martin surrendered a two-run homer in the second inning but was in line for the win until the Rangers mounted a ninth-inning comeback. The 28-year-old has now delivered three straight quality starts and has surrendered three earned runs or fewer in eight of 11 outings this season. He'll carry a 3.45 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB across 62.2 innings into a road matchup with the Orioles next weekend.

Martin allowed a season-low three hits, all singles. Fielding errors in the second and third innings helped the Twins push across two runs, but Martin was able to post his third start of the season of at least five innings and one earned run or fewer allowed.

  Rotowire Apr 17, 2025

Martin held the A's to one run through his first four innings before giving up a solo homer to Lawrence Butler in the fifth followed by a JJ Bleday two-run blast in the sixth. The 28-year-old righty has covered at least five frames in each of his first four starts of the year but has otherwise provided inconsistent results, with a 4.84 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB across 22.1 innings.

• White Sox's Davis Martin: Spins second quality start

  Rotowire Apr 11, 2025

  Martin (1-1) earned the win Friday over the Red Sox, allowing one run on six hits and a walk while striking out six over six-plus innings. The White Sox's offense erupted early in this contest, giving Martin plenty of support. He also pitched well, throwing 63 of 89 pitches for strikes to earn his second quality start in three outings this season. He's now at a 4.24 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB over 17 innings across three starts. The right-hander will likely struggle for wins while pitching for a poor team, and he hasn't historically displayed much strikeout upside at the major-league level. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Athletics next week.
