NEW BRITAIN—The New
Britain Bees today announced the signing of pitcher Tyler Danish. A
seventh-year pro, Danish arrives in New Britain for his first go-round in the
Atlantic League. Prior to joining the Bees, Danish spent the 2019 campaign with
AAA Tacoma in the Seattle Mariners organization where he appeared in six games,
striking out 10 batters in 15.2 innings.
A 24-year-old right-hander, Danish was originally drafted
by the Chicago White Sox in the second round of the 2013 MLB amateur draft. He
spent four years with the White Sox organization before making his big-league
debut with White Sox in 2016 at the age of 21. Danish went on to spend parts of
three seasons in the Majors with the White Sox from 2016-18, appearing in 11
games and posting a 4.85 ERA with 11 strikeouts over the course of 13.0 innings.
In 150 career minor league appearances—100 of them starts—Tyler has recorded 27
wins with a 4.36 ERA and 423 strikeouts in 632.0 innings pitched.
“With the addition of Tyler, this gives our pitching
staff another established arm,” says Bees General Manager Brad Smith. “He’s a
versatile pitcher, having both worked as a starter and reliever during his
career.”
The Bees are Connecticut’s representatives in the Atlantic League of Professional
Baseball, and play their home games at New Britain Stadium. For information on
