caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 You can't build up a young team's confidence in 2024 if they don't believe that their bullpen is capable of closing out more than 50% of the games... That said, spending millions on more veteran bullpen arms just to turn around and flip them again, not sure Chris Getz is going to go out of his way to copy Rick Hahn there in his roster construction.

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Well, we have Lee with his laser arm who basically can't do anything besides throw, lol. Miguel Olivo if you really really really stretch the projections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Just back from a walk....I see the Sox scored 8 to tie then in true White Sox fashion, gave the lead right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Uh oh. Kopech in. So much for gradually easing him into the pen. Not that this game really matters in the overall scheme of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Just trade Kopech for whatever Tier B/C and lottery tickets you can get. He's never going to succeed as a reliever again with all the water under the bridge from failing to meet expectations dating back to the Sale trade and #1 RHP prospect ranking. Better to move on for both sides. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
