southsider2k5 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Not who I figured would get the call up, but I figure this means Ruiz will go back down tomorrow unless Fulmer gets burned for a while today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Weird. I would have preferred Cordell on the roster to face Snell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Bullpen got decimated over the weekend. I imagine he'll be used in that capacity. Especially if Santana is reinstated for tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and fulmer can go more than one inning (unless he's bad) (that does happen a lot) (hmm...starting to rethink this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could be as bad at my job as Kenny, Hahn, and others in the Sox organization and have the kind of job security they do. Reinsdorf is truly an employee’s kind of boss.

The problem with firing Coop is Hassler has already been appointed his replacement, and since he's already in house, a change in performance wouldn't appear to be likely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Probably his last chance to prove himself. I wish him the best that he can carve out a bullpen career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I guess that makes sense. Call up someone who can cover innings for a game before optioning his spot for another starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetman Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 So what are they doing with him in AAA now? Starter? Reliever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetman Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 OK. so what's the master plan as to why he gets sent down after pitching well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 1 minute ago, Hatchetman said: OK. so what's the master plan as to why he gets sent down after pitching well? Lol. He was called up yesterday for 1 reason and 1 reason only. That was to pitch as much as he was needed to save the bullpen that had been taxed all weekend. They were going to option Cordell for Santana today, so they figured they may as well get a fresh bullpen arm for a day. Fulmer was that guy. That was the master plan. That is it. Not that complicated. Fulmer will be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetman Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 that he pitched so well would seem to be a good reason to change the master plan. of course I wouldn't want to hinder the development of Jose Ruiz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The need is more immediate. Fulmer is a dead roster spot for at least 3 days after his outing yesterday. Ruiz can go today if needed.

One outing does not change the grand scheme of things. Ruiz may have a future in the bullpen. Until Fulmer has sustained success at any level, it's hard to predict that for him.
