Bull Durham? Should have been...

Pivetta then probably Buehler would be next don't dare start Mize or Vasquez maybe Robbie Ray, but that's doubtful too walks were way up again

About the only negative comment is it's not for the middle class and it gets cold near the ocean at night but nothing like SF only city where Cronenworth Bogaerts Darvish Musgrove would not be booed for underperforming contracts Orsillo and Mud Grant are great too

the results of google.com.hk search for SoxTalk Hong Kong as google.com blocked inside of China or three posters on my "enemies" list joking Cali and Tray no need to curse at me on rare Sox playoff win day PAL? bat signal to RayRay?

surely the Sox bullpen makes up about half of that or maybe more...Burke was only one carrying rotation numbers

the only thing I'll say is both Morejon and Miller have been human down the stretch a return to previous form from Adam would be huge, as they had to rely more on Peralta and Matsui

except for Sox, arguably three pitchers are FAs (along with Suzuki/Happ) and they really miss Steele/Horton Bullpen is also in complete disarray offense and defense first team a strange combo

SD going absolutely crazy haven't seen this since 2-1 lead over Dodgers in 2024 with Cease on bump

Even Benetti brought up 2005 and skipped over 2021 when talking about series on NYY Boston broadcast tonight if that wasn't be enough there was Geoff Blum broadcasting

Rafaela/Contreras hurt and Anthony still working his way back timing-wise they knew the task that NYY pitching staff represented for weeks 32-46 32-5 run then basically plodding along like the White Sox the last two months

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2026/09/14/baseball/japanese-baseball/kaima-taira-npb-data/ Best pitcher statistically in Japan this year Can start high leverage relieve and even close "Kaima Taira has been brilliant in whatever role he’s been deployed in throughout his career, bouncing from closer to a legitimate starter in NPB. He has flourished by keeping his pitch mix expansive even in a relief role, and his desire to start is well known. This season, he’s been arguably the best pitcher in the league." "That means he just qualified as a starter by passing 117 innings; the next closest qualified starter to him in Pacific League ERA+ is Koki Kitayama at 165. Taira’s 230 ERA+ is absurd right now with a 1.46 ERA. Across all of NPB, Shoki Murakami leads the Central League at 170 ERA+. Taira has been as good as it gets, especially when considering the hype Livan Moinelo generated with a 210 ERA+ in 2025."

Tatis en fuego MVP of NL after PCA last four months seems to live for postseason And Machado homers as well Hays starting, Dustin Harris on bench and Sheets off roster Yankees pitching so good they're not assured of Cole starting G3 many prefer Rodon instead

King hasn't thrown 98 since NYY relieving days

they subtracted Luis Castillo's contract there

Benetti introducing Liberty Biberty is something almost prefer Doug the Emu and the 1974 Plymouth Duster beige special except for that dumb tennis one

Shortly after Smith strolled off the mound the third time, the White Sox got their biggest swing of the game courtesy of Colson Montgomery. The 24-year-old shortstop was batting ninth for Chicago, dropped to the bottom of the batting order after finishing the regular season on a miserable 4-for-62 skid that saw him break the MLB record for strikeouts in a season, with 227. But Montgomery has titanic, left-handed power. It was lying dormant during his brutal slump, but it produced 31 home runs before that, making him a uniquely dangerous threat at the bottom of Chicago's lineup. And leading off the fourth, Montgomery reminded everyone of his prodigious pop, crushing an 0-2 fastball up and away from Ullola to straightaway center field for a 432-foot solo homer that made it 4-0 White Sox. yahoo sports

one of the all-time good guys

WED is Hump Day for the Sox....

you still have to make a contingency plan

Hope they don't get cute and start Hudson again. Or at least try Schultz instead...although he should be bulk guy if it's not Kay...or are they holding Kay for G3 to relieve Martin? Burke Schultz/Brazoban/Hudson/Hicks God knows who closes nobody feeling all that good about Newcomb either Sandlin bounceback ability another good question or maybe Sandlin is held back to start G3?

He kind of disappeared as the game wore on today...

who else? Brazoban and Hudson? Martin/Kay and all hands on deck for possible G3?

Big escape by Tolle there seven man bench and ten pitchers is interesting
