Friedl is a great story.  He finished his sophmore season at the Univ of Nevada and played the summer with Team USA and absolutely tore it up.  No one ever checked but he was a draft eligible sophomore. The Reds had a bunch of left over money and signed him for $700k as an undrafted free agent.  Now he's a big leaguer.  Lots of scouts had some difficult questions to answer after that one.

He's in this very in between phase where he's really good for 3-4 innings but really struggles going longer. Hard to make a full time starter out of him yet you feel like you're wasting him as a reliever.

Really good 2-3 inning guys are really valuable in the bullpen.

The 2-seed would be great, but chances are the Astros will win 2 and the Sox will lose 1 before Saturday’s games are over. If we have a shot Sunday morning, then get excited.

I personally don’t care who we play… yes home field advantage would be nice but playoff White Sox baseball has me stoked already.

Anything else is just a cherry.

2nd base is still a total black hole for a team this good.

It has been, for the most part, since Ray Durham left after 2002 (2.7 bWAR/season average with the White Sox).

If the worst happens and one of them must start/pitch in the playoffs, Lopez over Keuchel should be an easy call

Can almost smell a RodoReylo October playoff slot.
