SoxAce Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Never thought a contending team would see this many rookies making their ML debuts already this early in the season, but here we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 My guess is this is the Pollock paternity list corresponding move. One would sure think Gio would have been placed on IL by now if that was the plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind if they can contribute at MLB level, but if relying on rookies is the only tactic then it will eventually bite us, especially as the farm shop shelves are pretty empty!

Not sure I really understand this critique. We don’t have a single position player debuting as a rookie on this team, and the only debuts in my head have been banks and now severino. And considering rosters are at 28 that doesn’t seem out of step to any other roster let alone one with multiple injuries. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he seems like a vet at this point, but I believe Sousa debuted Opening Day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zisk Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Severino averages about 5.5 walks per 9. he should fit right in here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthSideGeorgia Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Geez, tough crowd here. On one hand I hear Hahn signs too much vets in bullpen. Now we are using too many MiLB bullpen arms. I kid to a point… It seems like a great idea to test these guys out, hopefully in low leverage situations with the expanded rosters in April. I’m kind of surprised in Anderson Severino being the guy, especially since Hunter Schyver is a lefty with better, more consistent numbers in AAA. But I say go with it and experiment and see if we can find some lightning in a bottle players for this season. It also may help in bringing that payroll down in future seasons if we can start utilizing cheaper bullpen arms. We need some discounted players so we can hope to sign Giolito or eventually Tim Anderson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle is a contender also they will be starting. I believe SEA Matthew Brash will join that list if he starts against the Sox tomorrow as expected. Its the expanded rosters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Severino has gotten hit around quite a bit in his 3 AAA appearances so far this year. But as others have said, he's on the 40 man and this is probably a brief stay just to get an extra body up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Meanwhile Cade McClure with another very good start. He could be a factor in the near future. I see Johnny Quest was working out at home but I hope he is pitching somewhere soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, a 99 mph FB right down the middle is a hell of a lot harder to square up than a 92 mph fastball right down the middle.
