    No the rationale is that Kyyle said he didnt have one good outing in the last 2 years. As much as that may have been hyberole,in fact, he did have one this year and it was his last outing. Are the Sox never supposed to use him ? Why did they replace Detwiler with Rodon then ?

    1st it was he didn't have one good outing, not true. Then it was he faced a weak Cub lineup, also proven not to be true. Then Kyle finally switches to is he "closer to a good pitcher or Dylan Covey" after all the other things he said were proven false . It's one thing to use false arguments and be proven wrong twice if anyone actually takes the time to look it up, but he should at least admit that before finally using another tactic. Using false info or hyperole to make your point only enflames those who already are using passion more than logic towards Rodon.

    So basically you're jumping at correcting hyperbole that you knew was hyperbole, when we knew there was only ONE supporting example, against countless instances? What is the point in that? Really gonna split that hair?

    Lol that's so silly. If you can only name 1 good inning he had in that time span then the point you are attempting to argue is iron clad.

    If someone wins 1 game out of 100 and someone else says, "that guy couldn't win a game," I'm not gonna be dense and say, "Now, wait a minute!"

     

    Point being, you knew what he meant. And the point was correct.

    He faced Schwarber, Bryant, Baez, Caratini, Bote and Kipnis.... 20 pitches 14 strikes do I think he is the best option, no, but everyone here thinks he is Dylan Covey and that is not true.

    If your rationale is that one good outing defines him more than virtually all the rest in recent memory being bad, that's absurd.

    Umpires embarassing themselves all year.

    Why not list umpire stats just like players?They have all the statcast data. No reason they couldn't create stats adjusting for game situations and so forth....

    That is a very thoughtful and Innovative idea and I give you credit.

     

    However, I would rather just have computerized umpiring and just be done with it. And I've been a proponent of that for years already.

     

    But maybe let's wait until Grandal's is contract is up with us. 😛

    Guess I am not following what you are saying?  We can hit left handed pitching and like he said when the opponent throws a RHP something happens to our hitters and it's not good.

    My comment was basically aimed at saying Dallas "pissed away" the game as if he should be the focus of anger at this point. It's a team failure and a big Ricky failure. Without Dallas it could have been much worse.

    this game is over dude.  going into the 5th, even if we get something going they have the bullpen to put the game away

    Keuchel pissed away our only real chance to take the series

    As much as I totally understand the frustration, we can't be that mad at Dallas. He's been our best pitcher this year. If we actually had a solid back-end of the rotation we wouldn't need to talk like this. Dallas is one of the few people on this team that should not be criticized.

     

    Also, it's only two out of three so anything can happen. We could say that that's stupid but the Sox (and Ricky) earned that burden. Less about Dallas pissing away anything and more about Ricky and the team in general pissing away stuff, like the damm division.

    With Eloy in LF, Castellanos is RF would have been a disaster for a young pitching staff.  The team defense we played this year was a HUGE boost to our pitchers.  I think we were in the top three in runs saved this year last I knew.

    But we have no real way of knowing that. And we ended up going with Mazara so I feel it's a moot point. 

    If if that's really the process for not going after him I think Ozuna was a pretty easy choice.

    Why didnt we sign Marcel Ozuna again?  

    The fact we didn't go after him or Castellanos still just blows my mind. Big time "What could have been," IMO. I know there's gonna be a few guys available but the biggest names to be had were available this past offseason and as much as we added we missed out big time on considerably more that we could have had. And with the way the FA class is looking in the near future we can't afford too many more flubs from the front office. 

     

    Frankly I think ending up with someone like Pederson wouldn't be bad but would be basically just settling.
