Why did he leave, though. Normally they give the media a chance to get warmed up.

 

No, it was a normal session.

 

They ask. He answers. When the questions stop, he goes.

@paul_casella

This is the fourth time that Sale has gone 8+ IP without allowing an ER and not gotten the win since 2012, most by any pitcher in that span.

Stink is contagious. Sale seems immune. Keep him.

Awesome response by Sale

Yeah, not sure what else he is suppose to say.

It's clear with Eaton last night, and Sale tonight, they're taking their frustrations out on the media.

 

They're pissed off with themselves and their teammates. Period.

Yeah, not sure what else he is suppose to say.

The sad thing is...that's become a completely fair question.

 

Hell at least people are still asking questions enough to care. The end of the season they won't even bother.

It's valid but it was the correct response. If he responded with any other answer I would have been worried.

It is a legit question. I was hope he was asked how he felt about not getting to go out for the 9th or what he and Robin talking about in the dugout

Or about the obvious pine tar on his hand lol

Hey--guess what, kids?

 

If the A's win, the Sox will have the worst record in the AL on June 19.

Some more good news

Oak did have a 7-2 lead over the Angels but close to blowing it...looks like the White Sox will have to wait.

 

Pujols GS (20), Angels score seven runs and only one out recorded (Zobrist made an error as well) in the top of the seventh.

Another error in the inning, three on the game. Now three errors in one inning, four for the game. Eight runs and counting.

 

White Sox and A's are mirror images of each other.

Who f***ing cares about pitch count? Let the man finish what he started for gods sake.

 

 

This is a really bad and stupid post. Wow. He threw 125 pitches on Sunday. He's the #1 asset in the organization. And you want to trot him out there for 120+ pitches when the team spent $46 million on a closer?

I think pitch counts are overrated personally. Look at all those guys in the past that threw 120+ pitches consistently. Did they ever get hurt? No. I think the reason more and more pitchers are getting hurt in recent years is because they are babied like crazy.

As soon as I saw Robertson on the mound I knew what was going to happen.

 

The absolute stupidity of this coaching staff is amazing.

 

Roberston has been shaky for awhile now... 7 game losing streak - all the pressure.

 

You let Sale go out there- if he gives up a base runner or two then you bring in Robertson - give him a chance to be a hero.

 

All Robin did was give a scared pitcher a chance to be the goat.

 

I had enough of Robin. I knew he was a fraud at the end of the 2012.

 

 

At some point you need to win a F****** game and not worry about 10 GD pitches.

This is exactly my thinking as well.

 

I know 71 wins instead of 70 really means nothing in the scheme of things, but this is a game that Sale could and should have finished and won on his own.

If after all that time with the glare of the spotlight pitching for Yankees and with Rivera as his mentor leaves him scared pitching for a last place team, the White Sox really are snakebitten in an almost inexplicable way.

 

 

 

I have no problem with Robin going to Robertson. 125 pitches last outing, 111 this, as Robin said he has to protect the crown jewel plus they have a $14 million a year closer that hasn't been used. Last year Trout homered off Sale with 115 pitches with nowhere near Robertson in the pen, and in hindsight he was called an idiot for leaving him in. People have been saying this season is over. If you believe that, why would winning last night be so important you would be willing to risk Sale's health?

 

One sad fact, since 2012, Sale has 4 starts where he has gone at least 8 innings without giving up an earned run and didn't get the win,

 

Hopefully some of the guys can learna lesson from Robertson owning up after the game instead of hiding like Alexei did when he blew the game.

Ronertson said he sucked, he took the blame for the loss. When Alexei's spin o rama for no reason cost the Sox a game, he was "unavailable" afterwards to the media.
