March 5, 20233 yr Article on Kopech and his newfound comfort in his changeup thanks to offseason work. https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/news/michael-kopech-increases-changeup-use Also of note is a glimpse into some of Katz's thinking with regards to what goes into arsenal development and game planning.

March 6, 20233 yr I don't know, but I'm willing to take the blame off the Sox on their arbitration approach to Giolito. Maybe. It may be petty. But it's fair, and to the victor goes the narrative

But it's fair, and to the victor goes the narrative The problem here is "winning" still equals losing. It means that if Giolito continues to fall off with his stuff...they've saved themselves a bad extension. Otoh, it means getting Cease and Kopech would be almost impossible.
March 6, 20233 yr Not sure if a separate thread for Sox in the WBC makes sense yet, so I'll stick this here for now: His line through two exhibition games is 4-4 with two walks, a double, and that HR. Really think the WBC experience will be good for him. Edited March 6, 20233 yr by Autumn Dreamin

March 6, 20233 yr And I will be removing any continued discussion of it here - it is over. Thread was closed - you want to talk about Clevinger - focus should be on baseball (and that goes both ways). Period.

March 6, 20233 yr Tough start to spring for the Twins - Gordon high ankle sprain, Celestino out 2 months with a thumb injury and the prize of the Berrios trade in Austin Martin likely out for the season with a UCL strain.
