AL Playoff Schedule
Yup, especially for us. We don’t have the rotation depth to survive a long ALDS and be a strong position to win the ALCS.

AL Playoff Schedule
For me, I’m going with Giolito, Keuchel, & Dunning in games 1 through 3 respectively in both the Wild Card & Divisional rounds (the three days off between the series allows for this). Game 4 of the DS would be Cease by default if needed. No idea what you do if there is a game 5. Do you go with Giolito on short rest but then limit his availability in a potential ALCS that has no off days? I don’t see how you can possibly run out Lopez or Stiever in a do or die game. To me, that ALCS series is where the real trap exists for teams like us that lack quality depth in their rotation.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!
So we all agree now that Dunning should get the ball if there is a game three in the wild card round?

There are cheap alternatives to Engel that would still allow us to upgrade the rotation.
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
They aren’t starting Engel in RF next year

Tyler Clippard will always piss me off because we didn’t get a good second piece in the Kahnle, Frazier, Robertson trade. Make him pay for that Luis!

The voters are going to pretend the #1 team in the AL doesn’t exist?
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
Is he ?

Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
I blame the McCann stans for jinxing poor James tonight
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
And before anyone gets too excited, I’m simply trolling the McCann stans
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
I love McCann, but it’s amazing how much worse behind the plate he is than Yasmani
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
Yeah, this isn’t the playoffs, let Dane work through and not tax the bullpen this early.
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/15 - 7:10
Yup, Engel’s defense alone in RF is more valuable than Mazara.

The Hostetler Drafts: A Review
Technically Hostetler ran the 2015 draft after our 1st round pick. We didn’t have 2nd or 3rd picks but he did select Mendick in the 22nd round!

The first time the organization avoids nepotism the player is actually worth a damn.

Why not bring up Mercedes for a bench role just to be safe?

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!
Who says we can’t beat good teams?
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/14 - 7:10
He’s supposed to be a good outfielder.
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/14 - 7:10
He did make the right move, but horrible effort on the catch.
-
Sox vs Twins. 9/14 - 7:10
I didn’t even comment on the matter, but it does seem weird to have Dyson on the roster if you’re not going to use him as a late inning defensive replacement. I get Eloy was going to lead off the 9th theoretically, but why play as if you’re going to give up two runs?
