Timmy U Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 To be fair, Alexander has a 4.19 ERA with the Sox. But also, he’s 2-9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Dreamin Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 6 minutes ago, nrockway said: can't win em all. this seems like a 'good team' kind of loss if that makes sense. Yep, just a normal routine loss. Kinda fun how un-routine it feels to not come back and win again honestly. Get after it tomorrow with hopefully a more competent ump behind the plate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisk Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Teel looks like a guy who'll have 55-60 extra base hits a year. As a catcher he's Ted Simmons. As a first baseman he's Will Clark. He has good hands where ever you play him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestEddy Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 (edited) Well, good for Houser. Now he can go off and win out for the rest of the season, then get himself a big, fat contract in free agency. Now, let's get after these Rays, and win tomorrow. Looks like a TBD start for us, maybe they call up Burke for the game, or go bullpen. Burke just had a nice game last Wednesday. Smith Wednesday.

If the Sox sign a starting pitcher to a legit contract this offseason, he’s my pick for who they’d go after.

GreenSox Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Houser's counterpart Mead may have 0/4, but at least he didn't strike out....that's a plus, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to tonight’s game vs. Tampa Bay, the Chicago White Sox recalled right-handed pitcher Sean Burke from Class AAA Charlotte and designated right-hander Dan Altavilla for assignment. — Chicago White Sox (@whitesox) September 10, 2025 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they don’t consider Perez for 10 million He's your pick or do you mean that as you think that's who they would go after, because I would be surprised if you were advocating to sign Houser to a legit SP contract this offseason. He was good here, but has an ERA pushing 5 since he got traded and will be 33 heading into next season. I would HATE to see them sign him to a legit contract and can't possibly see that working out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SD...with Adam out, Philly, NYY, Mets, Seattle, he will get traded based on the "wow factor" behind that single pitch last night that had so much movement bearing in on RH batters. Otherwise is jus takes about zero sense. Would much rather have him than Wilson's misleading numbers. White Sox have 40 lose from ahead games already this year. That's second in all of baseball to the .500ish DBacks (43). Edited September 10 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His FIP is up over 5.00 These DFA arguments are funny, because most people think about 7 people should be DFAed from the bullpen, but each individual DFA is "stupid" because there's 6 other guys who could have gone first.

Bob Sacamano Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 I guess it doesn't really matter since he'll be a free agent soon anyway, and they probably don't plan on bringing him back on anything more than an MiLB deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
