chitownsportsfan Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Rodon is developing nicely. He's more efficient and working his change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerksticks Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 22, 2015 -> 11:41 PM) Rodon is developing nicely. He's more efficient and working his change. Sooooooo glad he's learning at the MLB level. What an absolute developmental stagnation it would have been to leave him in AAA. Imagine if he was dominating AAA junk players all year never knowing how much better he would have to be. Hats off to the White Sox once again for having the foresight to bring him up when they did and to not listen to the knee-jerk media when he struggled a bit at first. Whew!

greg775 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Nice win. Another extra inning win. Five under .500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 According to Stat Cast the HR by Thompson had an Exit Velocity of 111.6 MPH off the bat which is the highest for any Sox player this year on a HR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSox13 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Missed the game last night so I just finished catching the highlights. The Sox really need to get Trayce's bat in the lineup every day for the rest of the season to get more of an idea of what he has to offer at the big league level. His defense, speed and XBH potential would certainly help this lineup. Rodon looked good but I noticed he only threw 66 of his 116 pitches for strikes. Was he a tad off or have a rough inning?

Time for LaRoche to become the bench bat that he is and move Avi to DH with Trayce playing RF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 The best part of this game was the rally to tie it in the 9th. No matter what people think of Robin, and the teams chances of doing anything important this year, this team has never quit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 My favorite thing about Rodon is when he is in a jam I think " well he can just throw a bunch of sliders and get out of it"...and that happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Rodon is pretty special. Can't wait to see what he does with 30 or more starts next year. Last 8 starts for Sale and Rodon, both have 5 quality starts, Sox are 5-3 in their starts, and Rodon has a 4.27 ERA, and Sale has a 4.50 ERA.

daggins Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Its pretty clear that Trayce should start against every lefty going forward. He's good enough in the field to get a few starts against righties too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
