Thorpe

[2Deep]

I have not heard anything about Drew Thorpe. Can anyone educate me on his timetable, and when they expect him back.

[WhiteSox2023]

Not a surprise you haven’t heard anything on him.  There hasn’t been much if any news I have seen on him either since his TJ surgery.

Surgery was in March 2025, so I would think he's been throwing for a little bit by now.

He was training at Davis Martin's ranch earlier in the offseason: https://www.instagram.com/p/DRfcE0uEaC9/?img_index=1

True, the White Sox don't give out a lot of injury info and when they do it tends to be on the optimistic side (which lately has proven to be very wrong...)

No teams give out info in the offseason.

Teams regularly give medical updates in spring training or right before it. (Now spring training may not be in your definition of "off season" but it is in mine)

Wonder which 6 of our pitchers will magically all need TJS the very first day of spring training.

I am definitely curious to see if last year was an anomaly, or if the firing of Katz might have been related to this.  Of course we will never know the latter, as our local media is too scared to ask such a question.

Is the open Q&A even a thing anymore?  I thought I remembered reading it was not done anymore.

I don't know.

Either way, I am not paying money to the White Sox organization to do the job of people who should be doing this things themselves.  That's gaslighting.

If you as the wrong question, Boyer will put you on his naughty list and mean mug you the rest of the night.
