Timmy U Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Minaya is bad, but what choices does Ricky have out there? Beyond Fry, no one has been particularly good. I will be so happy when the purposely bad bullpen days are over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSox13 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) The Sox really need to get Nicky out of LF. He's just not an outfielder. Welp, there's goes a walk off from Covey. Edited August 29, 2018 by BlackSox13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 That's ONE way not to win too many meaningless late season games and end up with a pick in the #6-8 range... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Dylan Covey has 12 losses? He didn’t even start the year in the majors. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welp, there's goes a walk off by Covey. Delmonico's not an outfielder, Palka's not an outfielder, Davidson's not a 3B...etc. Engel's a CFer but can't hit even at the standard set by 2006 Brian Anderson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 To repeat from last night. The baseball analysts couldn’t figure out why Renteria took Minaya out other then he had extended him and he had been used a bit before that game. So why bring him in tonight? He had Burr who only threw 1.1 innings since being brought up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about Burr, who has now been here for 7 games and made one appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's even more amazing is that he was REALLY good for his first 6-7 starts, too...and still has an ERA lower than Giolito, who has managed to go all Danny Wright/James Baldwin in terms of W-L record.

Jack Parkman Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 This loss is exhibit A for why Renteria shouldn't be managing the Sox in 2019. 100% on Renteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 13th game this year lost by the Sox when they had a lead in the 7th inning or later. Bullpen needs a lot of work this off season if they want to make significant progress in 2019. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Tough loss but it’s super encouraging that the Sox have looked better than their potential 100 win opponent so far this series. Not concerned about the garbage bullpen because Minaya and Covey aren’t guys that will see high leverage situations starting as soon as next season.

You honestly expect to see Minaya and Covey pitching the last two innings of a close/tie game next year? They’ll be lucky to make the 25 man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttommarello823 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 You absolutely have to turn Walker around with a lefty! This was a winnable game if the bullpen was used correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) There’s a reason Hahn has been stockpiling young relievers in the farm. Question is will Ricky be too afraid to use them (assuming Ricky is still here next season)? www.minorleagueball.com/platform/amp/2018/8/24/17775752/chicago-white-sox-relief-prospects-thriving-at-every-level Edited August 29, 2018 by JUSTgottaBELIEVE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 ricky's medical thing gives the sox the perfect way to save face, just pull an urbz and tell everybody he's stepping away for "medical reasons" when in reality he was shitcanned.
