Jake Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 1 minute ago, Jake said: Key thing to watch with Santana is the slider. It's been bad so far. His entire career, he's gotten by with a mix of just-okay fastball and just-okay changeup and an elite slider. Much like Rodon, he may be able to pitch over reduced velocity — at least well enough to stick around in this rotation — but only if he's throwing his slider well If I'm coaching, I go out there and tell him to throw that slider 60-70% of the time until he has the feel for it. No need to pitch conventionally when you've already given up 5 in 2 and 2/3 innings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 9 minutes ago, Dick Allen said: Rick Hahn has been a GM for now his 7th season. His teams have finished at least 15 games out of first every season. For those of you who thought he was a baseball genius, the joke is on you. He’s never finished above 4th place and yet is still somehow going strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScootsMcGoots Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Idc what his health is like, make Santana throw 95 pitches at least. We do not need to put the strain on our pen and destroy those arms due to the incompetence of our starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Some sox people looked at what Santana was pitching and said that it would be better than Banuelos. I question that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting dynamic since with GarPax, the non-hardliners tend to focus on Gar and think Paxson may actually be competent. I assume this is partly because the team was better when Paxson was more clearly in control. With the Sox, it's the opposite despite the fact it's also true the team was better before Hahn became the face of the front office Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Santana has barely pitched the last year and a half. I would have expected a rough outing today, and maybe a couple of more, but if he is still 2016 James Shields by his 4th or 5th start, it's time to get the waivers process moving.

They should emphasize the increased chances to catch a HR ball when buying bleacher seats. Easy money. 💰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aryzner Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 It takes true talent to be able to assemble a team that is this fucking bad literally every single season. The players change but the performance looks exactly the same year after year after year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garpax is probably a slightly worse than average NBA FO. Hahn and KW are easily bottom 5 in MLB, probably bottom 3. White Sox, Marlins and Cinci might be the bottom 3.
