Expectations were probably too high.
My main issue with Rodon right now is that he almost always gets hurt throwing 91-93 MPH fastballs when he can throw 95-97 and even hit 99 once or twice today. (Seems he's trying to emulate Sale, but lacking his command...maybe this comes from Don Cooper and wasn't Carlos' idea, in order for him to pitch deeper into games).
I think this certainly comes from Cooper. Most pitchers lose velocity after Coop works with them for a while. Maybe it's time to try a fresh approach with White Sox pitchers.
