Balta1701 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 The good news is that no one is ever amped up on opening day, so we don't have to worry about him overthrowing things or over stressing that arm. We also can count on the manager to be responsible about his pitch count and innings count. 4 1 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Well...this is the diametrical opposite of the SoxTalkers consensus of holding him down at Charlotte to claim back a year of control. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Any early weather projections? Anything below 40 degrees seems dubious at best... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 March 27th looks like pretty much the same weather as currently in Chicago... Maybe JR is trying to get the most relievers possible into the game with one of the best opportunities of the season to sell concessions and souvenirs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 This is probably because he is one of our only pitchers with electric stuff. I'd love to sit in the stands and hear all the stereotypical older south side fans (isn't it true baseball's demographic is 55 and up gentlemen?) fans express displeasure at the thought of an opener pitching the opener. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect nothing else from balta logic. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Getz seems to have a plan. Let him throw 80 or so innings by the end of July / mid-August and shut him down. Piggy back his starts with Kopech in behind him for the same thing and see if there could still be value. Hopefully the pitch count sits around 85 per start and we call it season.

Piggy back his starts with Kopech in behind him for the same thing and see if there could still be value. Hopefully the pitch count sits around 85 per start and we call it season. If he throws only 80 innings he wouldn't even be able to top 150 next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
