Noah Schultz

21-Year-Old PitcherRP
Chicago White Sox AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Unfortunately, we didn't learn much about Schultz in 2024, despite the fact he was healthy all season. He never threw more than four innings or 67 pitches in a start, so he never got to face a batter a third time. The 6-foot-9 southpaw logged 89.1 innings across High-A and Double-A after logging 27 innings and averaging fewer than three innings per start at Single-A in 2023. His fastball/slider combo is elite, and same-handed batters registered a .449 OPS against him. Schultz's decent changeup is a clear third pitch, and righties did a bit better against him with a .588 OPS, so refining that changeup while building his workload will be the points of emphasis going forward. Despite Chicago's delicate handling of Schultz last year, he should be assigned to Triple-A for his age-21 season after putting up a 1.48 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 58.5 percent groundball rate in 61 innings at Double-A. He may generate buzz early in spring training if he gets to pitch in big-league camp. Read Past Outlooks

Moves up to Triple-A
PChicago White Sox  AAA
June 14, 2025
The White Sox promoted Schultz from Double-A Birmingham to Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis
Though Schultz has struggled with his control in the minors this season, posting a 14.4 percent walk rate and 1.57 WHIP over 61.2 innings, he's managed a 3.06 ERA and has struck out 63 batters in Double-A ball. He'll earn a promotion to the top level of the minors, moving him a step closer to making his major-league debut. Schultz is one of baseball's top lefty pitching prospects and could reach the majors before the end of the current campaign if he fares well with Charlotte.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Schultz showed off one of the best sliders in the minors last season while also dealing with shoulder trouble that adds risk to the profile. The 6-foot-9 southpaw was selected out of high school with the 26th overall pick in 2022, but he has been limited to 27 pro innings and he turns 21 in August. The lanky southpaw boasts a mid-90s fastball that plays up due to his deceptive release point to go with his wipeout low-80s slider. He dominated Single-A hitters in 10 short starts and didn't need his third-pitch changeup much. Schultz looks like an elite pitching prospect if we're just judging on stuff, projection and in-game results, but he's also extremely risky given the injuries already on his ledger and his inability (thus far) to handle a starter's workload.
