3 hours ago3 hr James is reporting McDougal is with the team in Houston. It looks like they are content with letting Thorpe stay in AAA all year. This is quite a confusing day. Especially since the move to the pen for McDougal has not been good.
2 hours ago2 hr If I remember correctly, his only appearance was like 3 walks and a hit batter.....or did I miss any other appearances?
2 hours ago2 hr Thorpe was scratched from his scheduled start yesterday. This makes no sense unless he is hurt. I think I would rather see Sandlin anyway.
2 hours ago2 hr yeah if Thorpe is hurt again, well let's just hope it's the usual post surgery stuff and not worseedit: nope, not hurt. looks like the Sox want him to face a team that doesn't have big bats (Cleveland?) Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by joejoesox
2 hours ago2 hr Sox have next Monday off, then face the Pirates at home on Tues. The following series he would be ready to pitch is vs CLE, this is assuming he would make two consecutive starts in AAA if they skip the pirates series

2 hours ago2 hr Why not? McDougal's last performance was inspiring! What the 'pen needs more than anything, is another guy with no command over the strike zone.

Maybe there’s something going on that we’re not totally privy to - like perhaps his recovery is moving along fine but they feel a need to baby him.I don’t fucking get it.

1 hour ago1 hr Or they don't want to put him into pennant race pressure coming off TBS...risking another injury with him trying to overthrow a FB to juice it up to 93-94.Last four Septembers, wouldn't matter as games were just for pride/avoidong loss records. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by caulfield12
