Ryan Burr and Josh Osich represent two extremes of the White Sox bullpen

White Sox relievers Josh Osich and Ryan Burr suit up next to each other in the clubhouse — but there situations couldn’t be more different.

Burr, 24, was a late-summer call-up last season and has 19 2/3 innings of experience on a big-league mound. MLB.com ranked him as the Sox’s 30th best prospect.

Osich, 30, was called up Friday about a month after the Sox claimed him off waivers from the Orioles. He spent four seasons with the Giants

Osich, who replaced Caleb Frare, another young arm like Burr, knows why the Sox are giving him a shot: To add veteran depth and help mentor his younger counterparts.
