Coming off a good start 2. Diminishing team control 3. 8 games up 4. Need to save arms in the 2nd half 5.Looking for a guy who can do long relief 6. Gives you more trade options 7. Gets to work with Katz again. 8. Double header upcoming Monday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it, Lopez' trade value is non-existent right now. His record and ERA at AAA are abysmal. My guess is we have him on the roster for 2 weeks and hope he pitches well enough in long/mid relief to get a team intrigued enough to take a flyer on him as a throw in on a trade. If that doesn't happen by July 30, we DFA him and move on. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.. Perhaps the Sox owe his agent a solid.

southsider2k5 Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 They could well be showcasing ReyLo as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 The concept of starting a guy who is awful to showcase him as if teams can't go see him suck in AAA sure is weird 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 He has pitched well his time out, Working with Katz in person could help him as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point of the season, he may get more personalized help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you bring in a new pitching coach and voila ! pitchers can make changes in everything they have been doing all theirs lives just like that right ? Some guys can't do it. Some it may take a year, some a month and other's only days. Then there's the whole mental side of it ,going with something different to help you at the highest level when what you have done your life is what got you to the highest level.

he gone. Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 On 7/16/2021 at 5:54 PM, southsider2k5 said: They could well be showcasing ReyLo as well. That is my guess as well. To me, that was the only conceivable angle outside thinking Katz is a miracle worker. Lopez still has some shine left from his prospect days, we needed innings in DH, and why not? I'd guess 75/25 he's traded before end of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 ReyLo pitched decent. Was surprised to see him not get optioned last night tho. He’s likely unavailable until the weekend. Guess Sox really want to see if they can make a reliever out of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
