Chicago White Sox Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 13 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: If you think he got a little too amped up after that liner and wasn’t tiring out, I’d let him start the 5th and give him a chance for the win. Would probably take him out with a walk or any hard contact. Just so I’m not accused of using hindsight, but no idea why they kept him after that walk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad coaching. No idea how they didn’t see it Im ok with him going out to start the inning. But he shouldve been pulled after the first guy reached base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulfly Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Stone, "It's about time" as they come back from commercial. God I hope he has the ear of someone in the FO to get rid of this utterly shitty manager we have to witness day in and day out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) 1 minute ago, fathom said: No way you let him face the top of the order for a third time. That was a perfect example of a manager trying to get a player the win and not the team a part of PD is giving a guy a chance to get there. i know you don't think so, and you think every MLB decision is made solely about winning every single match-up and batter but it's just not true. i also think a part of PD is getting a guy out of there feeling good abotu himself too, so this was a two way street. I can see both sides of this one. Edited August 20, 2020 by Look at Ray Ray Run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Great effort by Dunning. Made one bad pitch there. I have 0 issue with Renteria managing that inning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptatc Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 1 minute ago, soxfan49 said: Stone kept pounding the table for "Dunning is getting tired" and again it felt like it was not only obvious but it felt like it was taking shots at Renteria for not seeing it Here's the dilemma though. How do you increase his stamina and pitch count without pushing him into fatigue. If they continue to take him out when he starts to get tired, they'll never increase the endurance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t need to be laboring through a strenuous inning his 1st start back in well over a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People on here make decisions based on maximizing every run and win; it's just not how managers or teams manage games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just coming out to start the 5th was seeing if he could get it back (and I'm fine with that part too). He proceeded to give up a hit, a 104MPH screamer that should have been a hit, and then a walk.
