Oh, slim Chris Sale. I hate Robin Ventura. Let's throw 500 pitches next outing and see how long it takes for him to recover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I hate this. Yesterday I see a tweet that Sale is fine and all is well, and today it's gonna be that thing "oh, yeah he doesn't need DL he's not going on Rehab, no he's gonna be fine" and tomorrow it's "White Sox shut down Chris Sale indefinitely for elbow exploding in 6,000 places" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 05:16 PM) Chris Sale hasn't been mishandled by Robin Ventura or anybody else. I agree. Never been a fan of pitch counts (unless it gets absolutely ridiculous [Edwin Jackson-like]). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Pitch counts are one of several useful tools. The pitch counts on Chris really aren't that bad, though. 112 is high, but over the course of 4 starts it really isn't insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Any reports today about his elbow? I'm happy they aren't rushing him, but still like hearing if he's still having pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 To me it just sounds like they are being extra cautious, no reason to get worried or any setbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 29, 2014 -> 06:16 PM) Chris Sale hasn't been mishandled by Robin Ventura or anybody else. So, you're cool with him a) going over 120 pitches and b) going over 120 pitches when he's visibly straining? Both those things happened and both are dumb as s***. Pitch counts aren't God's word but they sure as hell aren't meaningless either. I'm more annoyed that Robin left a visibly tired Sale in the game than the pitch count thing, but I'm pretty sure the brass had a nice quick chat with Robin about it.

He wasn't visibly tired enough to alter the mechanics at least Cooper and Ventura didn't think so and I think they know him fairly well. Injuries happen regardless of precautions. Otherwise I wouldn't have a job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
