Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Just now, Chicago White Sox said: There is a way to balance the development of a young pitcher and still try to win games. I was totally fine with bringing Cease out, but the leash should have been short as fuck. And honestly, guys like Foster, Heuer, & Burdi need work given the the off-day tomorrow. Not having them ready to go was an epic fail and even the staunchest Ricky supporter has to admit that. Yes, a great way to develop a young pithcer is to always say you're not good enough to go into the 6th, or throw starter pitch counts, even though you just got 5 outs last inning and pitched around your defense crushing you. He made one mistake that inning; he wasn't tired. Shit happens. My lord. this is just nauseating to read. GO TO THE BULLPEN for every single decision. It's embarrassing.

TomPickle Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I guess on the plus side since the Cubs took the lead there is a little bit better chance they are going to their bullpen here? Probably not, but I can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you guys don't want ANY reliever in the game. You want the same guys in every single game that is close and you want them in before the 7th inning. Even when the starter is rolling. It's just hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 5 high stress innings. nobody even stretching in the pen should be a fireable offense It’s ridiculous. No good manager runs him back out there after all of his struggles today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter how, they were still loaded that leads to a stressful inning, not like he was really sharp either plus being close to 90 pitches to start the inning you need to have someone up. Not saying I would have taken him out after Baez but the option should be there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I‘m not saying he should have pulled Cease after 5, but to at least have someone up in the pen as he was closing in on 100 pitches and leaving his breaking ball up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bullpen is hands down one of the bright spots on this team. Probably top 5 in baseball right now. There is zero reason not to go to the pen and try and let cease get a win there since Ricky is so worried about his starters staying in the game to get the meaningless W stay.
