How was the Crochet velocity?

Good point. Thanks for the chart. Another unscientific question….does his current compact delivery seem more exaggerated (for lack of a better word) than it was even at the beginning of current season? I actually didn’t see this game, but watching the highlights it really appeared to be very noticeably ultra-compacted. Camera angle?

Seemed like he's struggled with it all year from spring on. Sort of left with the question of which Giolito is more real, his first Sox career or the second. We have had these waits before which didn't pan out so good. His velocity is down looks like compared to when he was going better.

Hes a switch hitter so of course he should be and that’s enough of a reason.🤫 Tony LaRussa is an interesting guy.

Its great and all, but to take this as an indicator that nothing needs to be done about the outfield would be a mistake.

If he can do that without kicking the ball around and landing himself in the hospital, we upgraded. Sign me up.

Why the hell is a Blake Rutherford in this organization if he can’t step in right now.....

So this extra innings rule is called the White Sox Killer?

I’d rather keep him in left and train Eloy at first. Since Eloy is dead set on playing a position. Not a fan of diminutive right handed first basemen anyway.

Well hopefully TLR is giving up batting him below Garcia. *Fingers crossed*

They can, but patching in scrubs like Hamilton and Lamb is not responsible. They need to make a move, and they did before this really.

Yeah thanks. Miss the point.

Yeah so, the lack of depth in the minors is not not a problem.

My God

Some team will pony up. May as well be us

We need to get Rodon under new contract ASAP. There, I said it

The way he mixes speeds on his fastball is impressive to say the least, and he can control it with movement. Almost like having an extra pitch.

The bar seems pretty low to call out nice game. Other guys wish they could get props as easy as this

So, he doesn’t have it anymore?

He looks like Scott Ruffcorn for crying out loud

Yeah baby!

Definitely not unnecessary innings. But these have a serious purpose.

Kopech is on cruise control

He looks like Ricky Henderson at this point.
