Nobody is surprised that Rodon is pitching this well. People will be surprised if he can do it for more than 140 innings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that doesn’t indicate he will pitch 100 innings and got hurt for rest of the year and miss the playoffs. Since his debut, there is only 1 season he didn’t pitch in September.

thxfrthmmrs Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 We are rolling Velazquez, Kechuel, and Lambert out there and people are still defending the FO for not at least putting QO on Rodon. This is absolutely comical. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcq Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 He is already overworked. He needs 5-6 innings a week max. They are being foolish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just imagine the Sox facing the Giants in the World Series with Rodon still pitching for the Giants. Then ask yourself "Is Hahn working for the Giants ? " Why the hell would you ask that question !?! Ok No QO means no draft pick, which means teams would probably have offered Rodon less money ,so the Sox made it easier for any team to sign him for less money ,thereby ,making it harder for the Sox to sign him. Now to stretch this a little bit farther what if the draft pick the Sox might've got from the Giants turns into a really good player ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said it's impossible for him to get hurt. I wouldn't say that about any pitcher or any player. I said "still " because it's the fair thing to say. The rest of what I said about Hahn still applies. Edited April 16, 2022 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just crazy to see a smart person take such a weird position To be fair, Ptatc has not even suffered a scratch yet on the hill. It's a long , long season. Since myself and him have taken up a lot of space discussing this I will say that his position is based on Rodon's injury history and the belief that he has not substantially improved his mechanics. My position has been that Rodon was worth the risk given that most of the pitchers signed this off season in the Rodon range do not even come close to pitching at the level Rodon did last year .Also that the Sox abused him in his first 18 starts with little regard for the fact that he had barely pitched the previous 2 seasons, which given the advancements in biomechanics and his past injury history, was akin to hitting him with a stick over and over and having no concern whatsoever about him making it through the season.
