White Sox recall pitching prospect Grant Taylor from Double-A

HOUSTON -- The White Sox called up the No. 6-ranked prospect in their organization, right-hander Grant Taylor, on Tuesday.

Chicago selected Taylor's contract from Double-A Birmingham and designated right-hander Bryse Wilson for assignment.

The 23-year-old Taylor has not pitched above Double-A but has been dominant for Birmingham this season, allowing three earned runs in 26 2/3 innings for a 1.01 ERA.

Taylor, who is 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds, was moved to the Barons' bullpen on May 14 and has made nine straight scoreless appearances since, with one walk and 18 strikeouts over 9 1/3 innings.
