Rodon on the bump

Nice inning from Carlos. Ten pitches and two K’s including Trout on three pitches 

Sit down Yolmer. You bore me. 

Why is hardly anyone following this game here on Soxtalk?

The Angels remind me of the post WS pre rebuild White Sox. They draw more fans, but both had some big names and some other really good players, but for the most part, except for diehards, no one really cares.

Nice pop up homer. Wtf

Everyone feels like this:

Rodon throws 8 straight balls to first two batters in the third and it brings up Trout 

What’s with Rodon? Must have lost his release point 

Ohtani is awesome, but this batch of balls must be extra juiced.

Is the Umpire blind???

Well, this game proves, once more, that FIP/xFIP is absolutely a predictive stat. I don't know how anyone can argue this. 

Well, it's better to get one run in than wind up with none.

What do those abbreviations stand for?  Sabermetrics make my eyes glaze over.

Kopech news kind of bummed everyone out. 

I know they have a shitload of bullpen arms, but wonder if they’re going to get Stephens or Adams out of the deer stand.

Wow, Engel finally had a quality at-bat.

Why is that so many of these hitters when they have 3 balls and an excellent chance to walk, instead let the pitcher off the hook by insisting on hitting it into play?

Torn UCL, TJS recommended, out 12-16 months.
