The Sir Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Yeah, I'm out. Bridge on the River Kwai >>> Chris Sale's Mental Midgetry: An Ongoing Series. Get Urias++ for him and let Dodgers fans debate whether his talent is worth the childishness. Edited July 29, 2016 by StrykerSox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeky Magee Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 28, 2016 -> 06:58 PM) What the hell are you talking about? I'm talking about how the White Sox and Don Cooper decided to emphasise slower fastballs and reduced changeups to try to pitch to contact instead of striking out hitters in an ill-fated plot to get deeper into games and as a result Sale's K/9 has dropped from 11.8 to 8.5 and the best ERA estimator has him jumping from 2.52 last year to 3.59 this year.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 28, 2016 -> 07:57 PM) Only the White Sox could take a Hall of Fame pitcher and think "hmm, there's something we have to change here", and instantly turn him into a number 2 starter.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Melky can just flat out hit. I'd think someone competing would make a move for him because he can hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
