4 to 0

 

Good thing at least these games vs Tigers aren't going to end up mattering much in the standings at the end of the year. Seems like there was some bad planning by the coaching staff this week.

Det 4-0 ...............had guy dead to rights at 2nd Abreu does not cover 2nd base in rundown as the trailer.

When I was at the game Sunday, they showed some sort of clip between innings of guys in spring training lifting, hitting, doing drills. They even showed them practicing rundowns.

well that blown lead by Q yesterday really sucks

Cannot just give Detroit 2 wins which is basically what the Sox have done. 14 K's and no walks for Sox last night and Sox still lost. You very seldom see that.

Is Noesi the White Sox 9th different starter this year?

 

Sale, Paulino, Quintana, Johnson, Danks, Leesman, Rienzo, Carroll, and Noesi. That's a lot for April.

Yes it is.

If I was told before the season that the Sox would use 9 different starting pitchers in their first 29 games, and Sale would only start four of them, I would have guessed 9-20 as a record. So 14-15 ain't too shabby. Still believe in this team if they get healthy and stay healthy in the next two weeks.

Next 20 games with 14 on the road will start to tell the tale.

Ventura left him out to die...really awful managing once again if you're going to have a bullpen game.

Noesi ended up allowing more runs that innings pitched...predictable. Sad thing is I'm sure they'll be stubborn and keep him on the roster.

Pick one. Should Noesi be rewarded for the fact that he went 3 innings and then possibly tired out as you said in your first one or should he be released from the roster for giving up runs in the 4th inning when robin "left him out to die".

Sox aren't getting any breaks with the starters they've had to face. Getting Verlander/Scherzer in 2 game series is terrible luck. Samardzija wasn't going to face the Sox next week, but the rain out on Monday means he'll be starting game 1 of that series.

And if someone told you a couple weeks ago when the Sox were pounding him, that Noesi would be starting for the Sox vs. Scherzer, you would probably have to be insane to think there was any chance to win the game.

 

Maybe Viciedo can keep his dropped fly ball streak alive.

Noesi's just not a good enough pitcher to store on your 40 man when you're already having issues creating room. However, after seeing him get hit hard all over the field in the 4th, it seems Ventura was one batter too late in getting him out while the deficit was still manageable. If you're going to have the bullpen day, you can't keep guys in when they're clearly gassed.

Maybe he read Soxtalk and figured he had to prepare himself for a 14 inning game because he was toasted that day for removing ineffective pitchers.

If anything they are going to look at the three scoreless innings and think they have at the very least right handed reliever on their hands. If they think he got tired, they are probably feeling pretty good about his being better once he has more pitches under his belt.

 

I'm not sure how you don't take this outing some sort of a positive thing. Well I can see how some would look for the negative, but I digress.
