Not even bothering to throw a pitch inside as a show me pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was strugglin big time halfway to second. Makes you really appreciate how well Abreu runs as a first baseman.

whitesoxwin Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 2 hours ago, whitesoxwin said: I keep hoping that the White Sox turn it around and every time I think they are headed in the right direction, they throw in a stinker like last night. Perhaps Cuerto throws a masterpiece today and the team's bats are as hot as heck. That scenario seems unlikely with Verlander on the mound but anything can happen. Come on Chicago, get pissed about last's night performance and get things turned around asap. Some of us haven't given up on the team yet but dang it, it's getting harder to stay positive. I know it's early in the game but it's looking darn good for the White Sox. Now just keep it going guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy that can eat innings with a sub 4 ERA is very valuable. It’s been a great signing so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Johnny at 33 pitches thru 3. If he'd like to go 8, that'd be just fine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Just now, soxfan49 said: Yes No more in season extensions, period. That said, would go with Kopech / Cueto / Cease for three playoff games in Houston. Absolutely zero confidence in Lynn in Houston, would save Lucas for a home start and Lynn as well.

caulfield12 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) Cueto putting on a pitching clinic. Mid 30’s range for pitch count (34). Minimum through three. Graveman probably quite excited to (hopefully) get the SVO. Edited June 18, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be their only true bargain contract on the entire roster, other than Vaughn, Cease and Kopech. Mendick the way he’s going, and Burger (past tense).

Ducksnort Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Well, this might be the first game JV loses against the Sox since 2014. On another note I hope the Sox continue to hit the opposite field the rest of the season. Grandal, Eloy and Moncada should be taking notes...
