2Deep Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Good Morning Anyone have any updates on these 3. Our bullpen seems to be staggering and would be great to have Gio and especially ABum in the pen. I still want to see if Carlos can pitch well as a 5th if healthy.

bmags Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Bummer - has a nerve issue, just hope he returns before october Rodon - throwing in Schaumburg, hopefully next week GG - should be next week too This info was mostly shared in RHs recent press conference after trade deadline passed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I don't think Bummer is coming back soon. They said Gonzalez might be back by Sunday. Rodon will likely be back soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Need a pool on how many innings Rodon pitches before surgery. I say three. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when people were counting on him this season. Should have learned. I really wish they would just make him a dominant bullpen guy at this point. Not sure he will be worth the 5mil or so next season. What a frustrating dude this guy has been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, we need Rodon in the rotation now. Probably going to piggy back Rodon and Gio G to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnetennba Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Rodon supposedly threw 60(?) pitches in Schaumburg last weekend. Haven't heard anything more beyond Keuchel saying Rodon could start or come out of the pen after the trade deadline passed. GioG's IL stint is retroactive to Aug 27th so he would be eligible to come off this weekend. Haven't seen anything further since he went on the IL on Aug 30.

Bad Hombre Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 With 2 off days next week, Sox won’t need a 5th starter til the 4 game series against the Twins starting September 14th. Rodon can be lined up to pitch the first or second game of that series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bullpen will need some divine intervention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 100% the right decision on Bummer. I wouldn't have him pitch at all till next season. He is way too important for the future in our pen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShoeLessRob Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Man I feel for Carlos, such potential, just made of glass. I don’t think he’ll attempt to convert to the BP either, due to his agent and his competitive nature. What are the chances he doesn’t throw a pitch as a White Sox again?

If the Sox don't non-tender him, he's going to have to adjust to not starting. I just can't see the FO going into next season, a season with real expectations, penciling Rodon in every 5th day again. Too many question marks in the rotation as it is. At best he is the long man/spot starter/piggy back off Cease & Dunning until Kopech is up.
