JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 It’s obvious at this point but the starting pitching (and relief pitching isn’t the issue). It’s the defense. Time and again we see it rear it’s ugly head at the most inopportune times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yes, slightly above average, and totally good enough to reach the playoffs as long as it’s teamed with a good offense, bullpen, and defense, but definitely not carrying the team there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you even arguing man? I’m arguing that a team with limited resources like the Sox shouldn’t be spending said resources on the rotation this offseason. There are far bigger issues elsewhere on this roster. I will start with one: defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 3 minutes ago, JUSTgottaBELIEVE said: So when they bring him back next season you won’t criticize the front office right? No, because I want to bring in another quality starting pitcher in case Lucas continues to pitch like a #4 guy. But even this version of Lucas is worth a 1/$8M deal. I don’t think you realize what bad SPs who can eat innings get in free agency. VV got $4M guaranteed and has never been good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have missed part of this discussion, but is the point here that they don’t need a 5th starter because of Davis Martin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, of course. But anyone criticizing the pitching for not being good enough needs to account for this godawful defense. With even an average defense, the pitching is top 3 in the league. I truly believe that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
