Someone remind RV that Lindstrom isn't a closer.

Put his ass back in a 7th/8th inning role.

I cannot recall a worse pitching performance of a White Sox pitcher right off of the bat in my life-time as that guy.

Hopefully the Sox gamble on Tommy Hanson is better.

everyone in sox management should know that sale is not durable enough to throw 100+ pitches on a regular basis. letting him throw almost 130 was criminal. now he's on the DL. fuck

Is Dave Martinez or Sandy Alomar still available for the manager job?

I am going to disagree. He's always been sore in the beginning of the season. It could eventually be TJ but maybe not.

He was saving a depleted pen and that's what an ace is suppose to do. I blame Sale on the long outing more so as he went with a fanning strategy v contact strategy

In any event, imo the issue is all of baseball are babying the pitchers too much and really neee them to pitch more especially in the minors.

If Sale does indeed get TJ I'm not worried about him being dominate two years later. This does for me change our 2014 pick from the catcher to a pitcher

We were never taking a catcher third overall. It'll be a pitcher. I like Kolek or Hoffman.

I disagree. That high school kid could be the pick

No way they're taking Jackson. They've all but said they're likely taking a pitcher. Load up on pitching.


I hope Gardenhire gets fired from Minnesota. I'd like him

Better chance of two consecutive picks of a catcher than Ron being our manager

Given how tight Hahn is on intell, Im now convinced the original plan was to take the catcher

Lol ya I know. Just sayin that he's taking heat in Minnesota. It's possible. Not banking on it more like wishful thinking.


I'm just not sold on Jackson.

The draft is pitching heavy. I think the first 5 picks are pitchers. They are way ahead of the bats at this point. Also, Sale will always have trouble with his frame and delivery. I hope its not the start of problems after problems. He is a great young pitcher, but something keeps going on in that body.
