Agree don’t remember Katz working with fulmer, but it doesn’t matter because no pitching coach can fix him anyway. Fulmer is an albatross cat getting 9 lives because he has some great spin rate. Who cares if you can’t throw a strike.

Damn good question he has barely pitched

I would say most teams have this problem with number 6 and 7 starters. You use your best triple A starters or kopech for the time being until you find a trade partner. Most teams are not 7 deep even the best ones. Send Lopez down and have him work on stuff he still could be a number 5 in the waiting.

AAA to start the season and have him work on stuff. Maybe we can trade him for something when some of these teams pitchers go down.

If lynn and the Sox would be open to a two year extension I would want that . It’s good to have the depth and a veteran in the playoffs.

And it’s on mlb network so everyone can watch . Happy Sunday

Whitesox are on the MLB network today against Oakland 3 pm.

Disgruntled ex employees given a platform always focus on themselves. Don cooper was well paid and well taken care of for decades with this club . If he wanted to stay employed through his 90 th birthday and die on a piece of apple pie thank god it didn’t happen. Neither did phil Jackson or coach Q , people in sports get fired and move on. The Sox were loyal and they found out they had a rotten egg in the baseball hen house. See ya, next time be humble the Sox game you a damn good fortune .

Burdi has not looked good this spring either. Zero command . Lucroy might win the backup role today with all he has to deal with diving around , blocking balls.

Sox minor league pitching depth is really aweful. These guys just don’t have it .

Yeah but rich king is god aweful.

Also I am not sure what their thinking with Mike Wright other than a number 5 starter in Charlotte. The guy is terrible and has never been good.

It’s on mlb network in case people want to watch the traditional way

It’s on mlb network .

Sox will be on mlb network on Monday against the Dodgers.

I am going to completely agree with you. I will not get caught up in game threads or hung on pitches , this is the best team I have seen in a long time . Very excited about the young players and pitchers and how they handle things . Very bullish on the season and I will admit as I age I try to enjoy things more than being a bitter whitesox fan calling for the heads of people whether owners or managers or players. I think they did a nice job getting this team aligned and although they have A few gaps I believe if someone significant goes down with a year end they will go for getting someone if they are in it , of course this board will always protect their precious minor leaguers thinking all will come through. I am really going to enjoy and root for success.

They have Already explained this , even the cubs are limited based on covid issues , only televising home games in the spring. different than the Sox excuse but kind of related based on crews. The Sox also have the app broadcast which I enjoy. It’s enough actually and I will catch some radio stuff.

So anything new in spring training despite everyone hating larussa, JR and Hahn? I mean all those people probably have there own thread .

You can add the cub game from Mesa as being televised as marque will broadcast it. So at least one more we can watch .

I am not insinuating that I like the hire in fact I don’t but I think bitching about it for months while rooting for the team you love is a waste of time and energy. Let’s see what happens I am not rooting for him to fail because that means the team fails.

Ok so everyone hates larussa I get it, he has a couple of DUI’s which apparently nobody on this board has ever got or won’t admit. We are all angels here, let me ask this in your hatred are you going to go as far as to not want him to succeed? I want to win , he is the manager whether you like him or not, but damn JR is old and will die soon then we will all get his cheap kid running the show , we’re not getting Mark Cuban or jeff bezos. Let’s just focus on the team and win.

Is it fair to assume that the cubs/ Sox games in spring training will be covered on the Marque network? Also mlb tv might carry a game or two during spring training.

I have been searching but cannot find any info on spring training broadcasts. Anyone have any info on this?

I actually think the Sox are saying Collins is not very good and we need a back to the back up. I don’t think they trust Collins at all.

Well I would give up all those guys who will probably never make it for him . Anyway doesn’t matter cause it didn’t happen, Engel is a nice back up player the rest are nothing.
