Chicago White Sox Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Actually excited to see what Stiever brings to the table today. His stuff definitely didn’t live up to expectations in his brief time with us last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has sucked out loud I agree but Leury is more valuable because he can play more positions. Mendick will get at bats too TBH, I’d rather give his outfield starts to Billy Hamilton and have Mendick handle the infield ones just to be free from Leury starts. Versatility is overrated without performance. Edited April 25, 2021 by Chick Mercedes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Versatility is overrated without performance. I understand he isn't performing but his history indicates that he can play a valuable sub role. I'm just not gonna get mad about a Sunday start against Texas in April Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then for me personally you throw Collins in there on top as an aggravating factor. That being said they both will go 3-4 today just because Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagahRagah Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) Kopech and Casper this game sounds very nice. Didn't think he would be starting this quickly, though. Edited April 25, 2021 by RagahRagah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Hibbard Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 For what it’s worth this seems like a pretty good defensive line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Kopech is going to be one of the best pichers in baseball if he stays healthy, no doubt. He is Verlander like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
