AJ probably pissed because he's the only guy in the lineup that couldn't hit today.

The thing that I've been most impressed with from Danks is his patience at the plate.

Chris Sale will get his 5th win after a Sox loss today if he wins.

It's amazing what a team can do when the pitcher is pitching well. No pressure and the guys just go out there and hit.

Why would you put in your long reliever who isn't very good in the 9th?

Just doesn't add up.

While I never actively root for the White Sox to lose*, it would be hilarious to read the posts here after that bullpen meltdown.

*Except when plakying the Cubs of course.

11 runs would never happen. It's just frustrating to see the manager and pitching coach make such a dumb decision. It doesn't make sense at all to put Stewart in there.

Again in baseball I'm very reluctant to use the words always or never. But yeah there is a .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of it happening.

Because your pitching coach scorns any notion of pitch counts and workloads as causing injuries?

there is actually a book by a DR forgot name he was on the score where he and a group of DRs believe in the opposite.

either way if it was larry rothchild as our pitching coach I would be a bit scared but cooper hasnt let anyone down yet.

I will leave whatever descion they make up to the professionals. if its skip starts, shut down, or let him pitch.

As I said in this thread Leo Mazzone was the same way and his track record is pretty stellar. However I saw first hand Dusty and Larry destroy young promising arms for my team by ignoring those concepts. I would ere on the side of caution and the White Sox may do that.

Wrong. It's exactly the right move to make. Innings eater ahead or behind
