Chris Sale

 

 

Santiago went from starter in winter ball to closer to long reliever to starter to long reliever to starter to set-up guy.

 

Sale went from set-up to closer to starter and then closer for less than a week and back to starter. And that was over 2+ seasons.

What player has had his role changed so many times in 1 1/3rd seasons in Sox history?

 

Name him.

 

 

With Santiago's control issues, walking Crisp was more questionable than it seemed.

Brandon McCarthy as well, spot starter to MR to long man to proven workhorse in the Texas rotation

You left out him being drafted as a starter after a full college season then becoming a setup man in the same year.

^Also Josh Fields had to sit due to Crede's attempted comeback, although nobody cares now because it was Josh Fields... used to be BTW that when you said Josh Fields there was some immediate uncertainty as to whether you meant the 3B, former Sox prospect, or high-ranked pitching prospect, but bnow when you say it you just say :"he suckled" all at once

Plus there was another Josh Fields, a pitcher...who came from the Giants, if I remember correctly.

 

EDIT: Oops, missed part of your sentence, but Josh Fields wasn't ever a top-ranked pitching prospect, he might have been 10th on the Top 10 list but he was fringy.

The excuses for Santiago are imcredible. Nothing is ever his fault. Walks a guy...he was in the stretch. Well, he better learn to throw strikes from the stretch.

 

If he can't pitch effectively with runners on base, he isn't the HOFer some people seem to think he is.
