There will never be enough pitching. Didn’t the Dodgers have 7 starters last year, and wound up needing more?

Hopefully Kopech is what we all hope he is.

There is something about the interactions where I think right now, Bauer wants to play for the White Sox. I think the question will be what it always is, money.

I don’t think so

Ozzie and Frank were saying if you are going to use Rodon, use him to start an inning.. They said even Rodons wife knows he is not a releiver.

The Big Hurt is teeing off on Rickey. Said he burned his bullpen too soon. Showed the team he had no confidence in them getting the bullpen up after one hit. Said guys were used in roles they weren’t used to and lack of normalcy did the team in. I did wonder why Rickey was standing and leaning over in the dugout. It would be one thing if that is what he always did, but that pose just made everything more abnormal. That said, the Sox had their chances and didn’t make it happen. Frankly, they were going to have a huge problem moving forward if they were only going to use 2 starters normally, especially with no off days once the series begins. I will miss White Sox baseball. Hopefully they can play a full schedule next year.

Yep, should have traded Dunning and Kopech for Clevinger, and paid for his surgery.

I don’t think he is OK. The trainer was talking to RR and indicating an elbow issue.

I think the hope is Marshall for 2, Fry for 1 and Colome for 2, and hope you score a lot of runs.

When does Mazara get an extension?

Mazara seems to get a lot of full counts.

He was hoping to get the lefty out and be out of the inning. But Hot Carl walked him, and that led to trouble

This clown is talking about the intentional walk. That was the smart play. It was Rodon facing a righty. One of the better outcomes would have been walking him anyway.

The A’s don’t hit, but they make you throw strikes and can hit homers. The 2 things Cease hasn’t exactly mastered.

A break. Now get some runs.

I think he should have left Dunning for a little bit.

Have you ever noticed every time Coop goes out ther the next pitch is a ball.

Another issue is Foster hasn’t been so automatic lately.

I think it is so unfair to expect much out of Rodon, Bummer and Leury at this point. They just couldn’t be anywhere near full speed.

Ricky made a nice move there. The intentional walk counts as a batter.

If he walks him, Rodon should fake an injury so they can take him out.

This is a problem. Rodon was not ready to return, and the A’s see too many pitches to go inning to inning with relievers.

Considering it is still sunny downtown, I think they would have got the Cubs game in today.

Rodon is in for 1 .

I think you are 1 for 2. Forearm tightness isn’t good. I bet they are checking his elbow. Eloy will be back if the Sox advance. He just wasn’t quite ready but getting better. A few days off is all he needs.
