flavum Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?c...mp;ymd=20170726 Lopez, Kopech, Dunning We'll see if Lopez gets pulled back for a Thursday start in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightsOnMintSt Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Really hoping that Lopez ends up not pitching and is on his way to Chicago for a start with the White Sox on Thursday. I think he has earned it and I don't know how much he has left to prove. Fun to see Kopech and Dunning as well going tonight. Always look forward to bouncing back and forth checking out the games on the MiLB app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pablo Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Why throw Lopez into the fire against the Cubs in front of a packed stadium? Let him pitch today in AAA and bring him up Monday/Tuesday for a start against the Jays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him pitch today in AAA and bring him up Monday/Tuesday for a start against the Jays. Lopez pitched in the postseason. McCarthy debuted against the Cubs, and he's been in the big leagues for 13 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCarthy debuted against the Cubs, and he's been in the big leagues for 13 years. Okay, I'm not saying a bad start will lead to a wasted career...I just don't see the logic in throwing him in such an atmosphere. Teams often bring up prospects when the team is on the road instead of at home to let them get their feet wet when the atmosphere isn't as intense. Monday or Tuesday will have a quiet 20,000 fans instead of a crazy 40,000 tomorrow night. Would make more sense to bring him up after tonight's game in Charlotte, let him experience the game and the stadium tomorrow night. Throw a bullpen with Coop on Saturday and then let him start on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Sounds like Lopez is starting tonight, but Hahn is hinting a promotion is coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) Lopez with 6 K's through three. Hopefully he keeps it up and this is his last start. Edited July 27, 2017 by Chicago White Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Zavala with a three run HR. Dude has been insane at Winston-Salem so far. When does he finally get some attention from the prospect gurus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnin' two Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Seby seems too good for A ball. Also, does anyone think the picture of Collins on the WS site make him look a lot like Hamilton "the great hambino" Porter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winninguglyin83 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Don't forget Dunning -- 7 scoresless. 6 hits, one walk, 6 Ks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksnort Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 All of these fantastic pitching performances really gives you hope for the future rotation. If they can continue this success in the majors, a rotation of Kopech, Lopez, Dunning, a healthy and successful Rodon, should be very fun to watch.

thxfrthmmrs Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Great to see Kopech finishing the year strong. Give him two more starts to hit 110 innings and let him rest his arm for the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
