Unrelated to today's games, does anyone else have difficulty getting the box scores from MILB.com to show up for them on their internet browser?

It will be interesting to see if Carson Fulmer can follow up that last start.

Wow look at heads with the professional gamethread post. I'm giving you a trophy.

This. For those that forgot, he had a 1 BB 11 SO outing last go round. Fingers crossed.

Bummed that you rarely get to watch A games. 

Jose Rodriguez on a slump! 0-2.

He was a #9 draft pick for a reason. The kid has good stuff, his pitches are hard to pick up with good velocity and a ton of movement on everything, but his delivery has been tinkered with over and over again, it was a high energy and hard to repeat delivery in the first place, and the White Sox have given him zero chances to develop consistency with it, starting with him being called up to save the bullpen in 2016. 2k5 regularly points out that he's had fewer innings since being drafted than I think anyone else in our rotation. His stuff is absolutely good enough to give him dominant performances on occasion, even against big leaguers, so having a great performance in the minors should not surprise. Repeating that success...that might be legitimately surprising, but there's a good pitcher in there if we can ever put the puzzle pieces together.

There were a lot of really dumb decisions made in 2016.  I'd love a "tell all" to come out about some of those decisions.

Curbelo 2-2 with a BB, 2B so far.

I think the key is the fewer innings. Kid just needs practice at repeating. Similar to kopech. Good stuff needs innings. Unfortunately, not all of them figure it out.

Not only that but as few innings as many of our top minor league prospects if you add up both minor and major league innings.  Fulmer has about as many pro innings as Michael Kopech. (353.2 IP for CF, 365 for MK, 334 for Jordan Stephens)

Totally this.

As I said in yesterday's GT, he's really adjusted well in single A.

Robert in the lineup

Thank gosh. 

So much for Fulmer figuring things out

The walks are back with a vengeance for Carson. 5 through 4.0 IP.

Eloy 2-2

Conspiracy theorists would argue the Sox were protecting Rutherford’s stats in order to increase his value...or they would be watching Westworld/The Handmaid’s Tale, lol.

I really hate how much they sit Rutherford.
