Any chance this is some normal soreness type thing given he was on the mend from previous injuries (vs. a new serious injury). I feel bad cause Rodon was is such a strong guy and his stuff was just electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great that the White Sox won this game, but it doesn't change the fact that the starting rotation is now incredibly thin and we're only 10 games into the season.

Pen has fresh faces that appear to be weapons; sign me up. bullpen is as good as your offense, but yea, pen came through tonight as did the bats, as they have been.

I’m personally not optimistic given his track record and massive the velocity drop was, but at this point it’s all simply speculation.

mmmmmbeeer Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Great win. Pretty sure Grandal had to deal with 5 strikes called outside of the zone tonight. Brutal. Pen is shaping up to be a real strength of this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reiks12 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 the 4 and 5 spot is going to be rough going forward.. Cease needs to put his big boy pants on to help out this pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Foster, Detwiler, and Abreu deserve a lot of credit, but Robert getting a hit, taking 2 walks, and stealing 2 bases was huge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They shouldn’t have won that game seeing as Rodon went 2 IP. They found a way. They had like 75 runners LOB but they still found a way to get the W. I guess my point is....I now feel like this team should win most nights...and it feels great. When is the inevitable WS matchup with the Padres? I Can't wait for the narrative about Tatis and Machado. Edited August 4, 2020 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackSox8 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Marshall was an underrated part of the game...he was throwing straight filth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominikk85 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I honestly think the LOB thing is a good thing. Ideally you want to hit a little better with RISP but that isn't really a sustainable skill (long term you expect to hit with RISP like without RISP even though in some years a team might hit .320 and in others 250 as a true talent. 280 team) but lots of LOB means you have a lot of baserunners to begin with.

I realize we will see some wear and tear with the struggles of the starting pitching but the front office has certainly assembled a quality group of relievers.

hogan873 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Foster looked really good last night. I was concerned when Rodon was done after 2, but the pen saved the day again. Jose continues to do Jose things - you know, drive in meaningless RBIs. Robert is just a damn good ball player. And as a side note, anyone who continues to b**** about the season being played should sign off SoxTalk until 2021. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
