That’s weird don’t recall that being any part of my overall statement that this org routinely does this exact same rest and rehab thing only to get burned by a TJS at the end.

March and April TJS arise from doing a full work up and deciding TJS is the answer at the beginning or during of ST. You have a doctor telling you they're not getting burned. But I'm sure there's no anti-White Sox bias in your statement that the rest of the league "is over" TJS in spring training. And seriously, "hot garbage" and "bum" is regularly thrown around describing guys just doing a job. I can't imagine those people have a deep sense of caring when they deride these guys.

February 12, 20251 yr Author Weird how the Dodgers, the gold standard for pitcher health, only found this out at the beginning of spring training, and didn't start treatment the day after the World Series. Dodgers relievers Michael Kopech and Evan Phillips are behind schedule and likely to start the year on the injured list. — Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) February 12, 2025

Again, your strawman of the time this happened is just that, a strawman. This isn’t about it being handled in spring training. Consider us all surprised that Michael Kopech is behind schedule and might be on the injured list. Wow that’s just so surprising can’t believe westeddy has gotten me so good

February 12, 20251 yr The Dodgers also acquire a hundred good players to cover for their injuries. The Sox have guys like Touki as a backup.

I should really stop logging in as you and mocking everything I post. The exchange was over. Kylle is implying that no other teams announce TJS, delayed timelines or other lingering injuries for pitchers at the opening of spring training. The Dodgers did just that.

Listen, I know your whole game here is to be mortally wounded by anyone who has something bad to say about the organization. This was my opening statement, to ptatc i never said “no other teams do this thing that routinely seems to affect the white sox” but rather the other 29 teams seem to deal with the injury immediately and move on. To which you replied “25 percent of TJS are reported in March and April ” because I dunno it was all you could think of at the time. It definitely was not a thing I was talking about but hey glad you got it out there

You dragged yourself into it with a response that had nothing to do with what I said, and immediately whined like a little baby about “burn” You literally fight with the entire board all the fucking time. My comment wasn’t directed to you, about you, or anything regarding you or anything you said, and you started insulting me about it. there is no hyperbole here, you are the biggest baby this board has seen since Ragah. Congrats on that

Ok wait. 1/2 of February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September. Maybe October. Without counting October, that's 7.5-ish months. March and April are thus 25% of the MLB year. So basically, TJS is effectively random for most teams. Out of the last set of TJS operations done for the White Sox on guys whose names I recognize: Guys who got hurt or did the surgery right around ST: Jimmy Cordero Garrett Crochet Matt Foster Davis Martin Jesse Scholtens Ky Bush Guys who had it at some other time in the year: Evan Marshall Liam Hendriks If 25% of the injuries are associated with Spring Training, and out of the last 8 big leaguers - 6 of the 8 White Sox had them in Spring Training or right after, that is a huge overconcentration. Might even count as statistically significant as an outlier. This pattern also does not continue back into the 2010s, because guys like Rodon and Kopech were having it mid-season. Edit: now that I think about it, Hendricks basically counts as a spring training TJS also since they rushed him back from f***ing Chemotherapy to the big leagues with only like 6 innings of work, no time for his body or arm to recover.

When did Dane Dunning have it when he was with the Sox?
