Foster pitched a scoreless eighth inning in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Foster, who threw 25 pitches as the opener in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader, got his first exposure to late-inning work Sunday. With the White Sox leading by five runs, it wasn't high leverage, but it could be seen as manager Rick Renteria's confidence in the 25-year-old right-hander, who has yet to allow a run in 2020.

Foster struck out two over two perfect innings as the opener for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

This was Foster's second time out as an opener, and both outings have been scoreless. As a matter of fact, whether he's been an opener or a traditional reliever, Foster has not allowed a run. The 25-year-old right-hander has allowed two hits and two walks while striking out 15 of the 32 batters faced over 9.2 innings (six appearances).

Foster will start Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Chicago planning to lean on its bullpen for Game 2 of Saturday's twin bill, Foster will begin the game on the mound. The right-hander has thrown 7.2 scoreless innings with a 13:2 K:BB this season.

Foster threw a pair of scoreless innings to open Saturday's loss against Cleveland, striking out three and walking one while allowing zero hits.

EDGE Analysis

Foster faced the minimum in his two frames, erasing Carlos Santana's second-inning leadoff walk with a lineout double play. He hasn't allowed a run in any of his four appearances this year.

Foster will start Saturday against Cleveland in what will be a bullpen day.

EDGE Analysis

White Sox manager Rick Renteria confirmed Foster as Saturday's starter following Chicago's win Friday night. The right-handed rookie is making his first career start at any level. Ross Detwiler is also expected to pitch Saturday.

Foster was recalled by the White Sox on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Foster will take the bullpen spot that had belonged to Jimmy Lambert, who hit the injured list with a forearm strain in a corresponding move. Foster is yet to make his big-league debut but recorded a solid 3.76 ERA and a 27.7 percent strikeout rate in 55 innings of relief for Triple-A Charlotte last season.

The White Sox optioned Foster to Triple-A Charlotte on March 6.

EDGE Analysis

Chicago saw enough from Foster during his time at Charlotte and Double-A Birmingham to protect him from the Rule 5 draft over the winter, but the right-hander's demotion early in camp suggests he wasn't particularly close to cracking the White Sox's Opening Day bullpen. He'll look to find success with Charlotte again after posting a 3.76 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 62:19 K:BB in 55 innings with the affiliate in 2019.

Foster's contract was selected by the White Sox on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Foster isn't a particularly notable prospect, but he did have a solid showing in 55 innings of relief for Triple-A Charlotte last season. The 24-year-old struck out 27.7 percent of opposing batters en route to a 3.76 ERA.
