That’s good. They were very effective, no reason to fix what isn’t broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 This article is fairly dated (2016) but I think there is some relevant information regarding an increased workload to Crochet: https://www.redlegnation.com/2016/07/13/the-limits-of-innings-limits/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His situation will be tougher because he has never had their level of past workload. Doesn’t mean it can’t be done, but I would bet it takes way longer to get him into that position and we don’t even know if he’d be at all effective in that role. This. It isn't some grand conspiracy or laziness or something. The guy doesn't have the base that all of these other guys have had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rounding_Third Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 The White Sox plan to convert Crochet to a starter from draft day on was always ludicrous! He had very little history, if any, at TN that proved he can become a long term consistent starter. Drafting him where they did for that plan shows what an idiotic FO/scouting they are and why high White Sox draft picks rarely come to fruition. He could be a great closer someday and possibly a really good setup man sooner. He can be very effective in any bullpen role but a starter is hard to see given his track record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradMc Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Spend some friggin money on a couple of aces and have Kopech-Garrett as your modern day Gossage-Forester. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
