Reynaldo López
Reynaldo Starling López Kely (born January 4, 1994) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the Chicago White Sox of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut with the Washington Nationals in 2016. Career Minor leagues López signed with the Washington Nationals as an international free agent in June 2012. His signing bonus of just $17,000 was relatively tiny compared to most other contemporaneous Latin American prospects that would reach his same level of success in the minor leagues. The lower signing bonus may have been because Lopez took several years off of baseball to finish his high school degree, and signed at age 18. He made his professional debut that season with the Dominican Summer League Nationals, where he pitched to a 1–1 win–loss record and 3.38 earned run average (ERA) in innings pitched. López started one game each for both the Auburn Doubledays and Hagerstown Suns in 2013. He pitched for the same two teams in 2014, starting 16 games an ...
