Jose Abreu Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 04:58 PM) No Nieto for a Danks start? I think because Tyler has gotten 2 days off in a row Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to let Nieto catch for Danks, I mean, what has Danks even done the past 4 starts or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 05:47 PM) No reason to let Nieto catch for Danks, I mean, what has Danks even done the past 4 starts or so? FWIW Flowers did catch him in LA (2nd to last start) and he was fine. Hope Danks keeps it and continues to be one of the better starters around.

BigHurt3515 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Can't start Nieto two games in a row because actually putting the ball in play some how and getting on base a couple times a game is frowned upon in this line up.. Striking out is the only way to go.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striking out is the only way to go.. We went through this last year too...they arent going to make a change unless Flower's shows zero signs of life in quite a few games.

southsider2k5 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 06:48 PM) Eh, Nieto is no contact machine himself. Nieto K% - 35.1% Flowers K% - 42.9% Nieto's is horrible but considering he's never played above A+ it's not surprising. Flowers, on the other hand, is due for Charlotte or another organization but I think the White Sox brass really, really likes the guy. I do believe the pitching staff loves Flowers as well. Get us rolling again RV23!! Nieto is a guy they are mixing and matching as much as possible to get him as many favorable match ups as they can because they don't want to bury the kid. They know he shouldn't be on a major league roster today, but to keep him in the organization, they know they have to carry him. He isn't going to start every day, or even semi-regularly for the simple fact that he isn't ready to be a starter yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
