(WAFB) &#8211; It did not take Tommy White, known locally as Tommy Tanks, long to make his way to the show. Several outlets, including Jeff Passan and MLB.com, report that White is set to be called up. The former LSU Tiger ripped it up in minor league ball, hitting .303 this season between AA and AAA. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"MIDLAND, TX - MARCH 30: Tommy White #23 of the Midland Rockhounds poses for a photo during the...\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/PDSUEGMLVZE65P7OOHPVSIG3DY.jpg\" width=\"980\" height=\"653\" \/>MIDLAND, TX &#8211; MARCH 30: Tommy White #23 of the Midland Rockhounds poses for a photo during the Midland Rockhounds photo day at Momentum Bank Ballpark on Monday, March 30, 2026 in Midland, Texas.

White joins former Tiger teammate Gage Jump with the A\u2019s. White was a member of the 2023 National Title team. The NC State transfer and Jump, formerly of UCLA, were key contributors to the 2024 LSU squad. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">There\u2019s a possibility that White could share the diamond with yet another Purple &amp; Gold friend. The A\u2019s play the Nationals on Friday, which could mean that White faces off with Dylan Crews.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text text-start\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wafb.com\/2026\/07\/16\/report-tommy-tanks-white-called-up-by\/mailto:typo@wafb.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.wafb.com\/2026\/07\/16\/report-tommy-tanks-white-called-up-by\/mailto:typo@wafb.com\">Click here<\/a> to report a typo.
