He's got the fire and the makeup. Maybe a late 2020 guy. Him coming back strong would be so huge. Best case scenario he slides into that 3rd/4th slot and makes the need for a TOR FA a luxury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Eaton trade happened, I remember some expert saying he would not be surprised if Dunning was the best of the 3...not happening now but if we have a #1 and any other rotation piece, that is a great trade!!

Tomtom Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Nice win thanks to Giolito, but this offense needs to pick up. They’ll be facing pitchers much better than Keller! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Next year's White Sox could turn over 3/5 of the rotation and end up among the best in baseball. Just gotta get Kopech healthy and keep Cease healthy (and sign Cole lol) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Gio is the ultimate comeback story. He has gone from me expecting him to give up 3 runs and walk 4 in the first 2 innings last year to now me being surprised when he gives up a run. Wow.

I still think it was the best trade Hahn made, moreso than the Sale and Quintana trades. Adam Eaton is a very good player but he is always an injury waiting to happen. To get three potential rotation starters for one good but not star OF is amazing. I still have faith in Lopez panning out due to last year but even if he can’t hack it as a starter, he could still make it as a dominant reliever.

Lopez was not rated high by some because they thought he was destined to be a reliever. We will need a great bullpen to compete and if he is part of that great.

Let's pump the brakes for a moment here. Lucas with a great 2 month run so far, but Sale was a top 3 ML SP for a nice 4- 5 year run for us. Let's hope Lucas gets to those levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradMc Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Brilliant performance by Gio. Cooper has squat to do with this. I truly believe Lopez would respond to a different perspective as Gio clearly has. Lopez's problem is in his head, not his arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Back when he started doing well I thought of another tall righty who took a while to find his form. At first it seemed like hyperbole, but the more he does this the more he reminds me of... Roy Halladay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
