I know. Murphy would have to go down too but TS cant come up for him.

Yes, I watched the game. The manager doesn't have a button of "does the other team score runs - YES/NO". He did what he had to do.

Really need to win 2 of 3 this weekend

Let's see what he does against the Royals.

Brazoban has options technically, but they won't do that, so it should be Murphy. Schweitzer threw 2 IP today though, the replacement would need to be someone else. If they want to prioritize length, Urquidy last started on Sunday and Sandlin is scheduled for tomorrow. Between one of them, Schultz, and what's left in the pen, they should be able to get through 9 and reset enough for the rest of the series.

Stinky, all you need to know is that Cali thinks he’s always right about everything Sox related. He even pats his own back and gives himself a self-high-five when he thinks he predicted a transaction that the Sox actually made. And when the Sox lose in horrible fashion he gets frustrated and takes his rage out on SoxTalk posters, rather than the actual White Sox team that lost the game. This is Cali to a T. The end.

Would be nice to take advantage of this stretch with minimal travel. Maybe walkoff specialist EQ with a chip on his shoulder can take advantage of a home heavy schedule too.

Afraid? I didn't grade but I posted my skepticism about Luis elsewhere. Arrow pointing down. So I didn't give a grade. Boo hoo.

A pitcher replacing Bart? You can only carry 13 pitchers

Will say that the teams that have gone on historic runs in the season aren't able to maintain them in the postseason. A's and Guardians come to mind.

Honestly, sounds like an amazing surgery for Lip. One hour to fix a torn rotator cuff. My son’s surgery took like 3 hours, but it was torn ligaments (ACL) and meniscus removal/cleanup. Rotator cuff is muscles and tendons.

BoSox are 31-5 last 36 games, 17 wins vs +.500 teams and 10 straight series wins with 5 sweeps IIRC... they're on a historic run. Gotta tip our hats to them, they're doing everything right...is it sustainable into the postseason? I don't know, what I do know is if our Sox win the division or are in the playoffs, they're the last team I want us to meet. I'd rather face Tampa than BoSox infinity times over.

And your right arm?

Murphy would be the only reliever who can be sent down correct? I would think Schweitzer comes up, but only if hes eligible. Not sure what the rule would be for him replacing Bart.

Not with my left arm in this bulky brace for six weeks.

Can you pitch tomorrow?

Thank you...I think? 😄

Sure, if we want to watch him walk most of them. I think Hagen this year would be a mistake, but I think he and Thorpe are Getz’s planned replacements.

Think I saw he pitched today

You know you are a White Sox fan and used to losing when you care more about @Lip Man 1’s surgery than a horrible Sox loss. And I’m being serious.

Wonder if we see Hagen, as Guardians have a ton of lefties.

We should have Newcomb, Hicks, and Hudson tomorrow. I think we need to bring someone up though because I don't think we have anyone else to throw tomorrow

Ron wanted to trade him as recent as like a week ago. But also kind of funny that people are tarred and feathered for thinking of moves that could be made in like spring training looking bad now when Getz has literally made moves where the player he ended up giving up was significantly better than what he got back. And yet, doesn’t get criticized for it. I say this as someone who has really liked what he’s done with front office and some small moves.

Glad you are back. I posted in your going away thread but I will message you directly with some questions.

I'm pretty sure the idea was to bring in a veteran starting pitcher that would go longer than Fedde.....Castillo needs to be better. Walking a weak 8th place hitter when you have a 4-0 lead is gross.
