chitownsportsfan Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 He's been throwing long toss and even pitched some off the mound yesterday: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0314-story.html Sounds like he's on track to make the April 12th start.

flavum Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I think Sale makes his season debut a month from today. He'll need the extra time. Samardzija appears to be heading toward the opening day start. 4-6 at KC Samardzija 4-7 4-8 at KC Quintana 4-9 at KC Noesi 4-10 vs Min Danks 4-11 vs Min Penny 4-12 vs Min Samardzija 4-13 4-14 at Cle Quintana 4-15 at Cle Noesi 4-16 4-17 at Det Danks 4-18 at Det Sale 4-19 at Det Samardzija 4-20 vs Cle Quintana 4-21 vs Cle Noesi 4-22 vs Cle Danks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, sorta. The Sox are possibly going to have to add four guys- Geovany Soto, Micah Johnson, Brad Penny, and Matt Albers. Even with Jones on the 60-day, three guys may have to be dropped in some form. And then Jesse Crain might be right behind in a month.

Penny hasn't been any good since Gordon Beckham was in college. Penny has a better chance of moving to a long relief role after the start, so it doesn't make much sense going with Johnson, especially after his season last year. He needs to go to Charlotte and earn his way back. The only real option besides Penny is a bullpen day--2 innings for Albers, Guerra, Webb, and Jennings, or hope for rain.

If Brad Penny is on the White Sox, everyone needs to quit complaining about Danks, Beckham and Flowers. He will be by far, the least valuable player on the roster.

They don't play the same position. I was all for them grabbing another pitcher, but you aren't getting much for $2 million.

Whisox05 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 “Sale had a really good day today. He threw a live bullpen session today. He remains on track to not miss significant time.” - Rick Hahn https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/579032013740507137 Chris Sale went "full bore" during a 60-pitch bullpen session on Friday.

Whisox05 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Sale said running today felt fine although it felt a little weird since he hadn't done it for a while. Seems very upbeat. https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/580083963256946688 Chris Sale is set to throw five innings/75 pitches for Friday's simulated game. Has just a normal bullpen session Monday. https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/580083849629040640 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Watched his bullpen session on Friday and he was really throwing well, didn't seem to have any limp at all. The only thing I saw was he shook his foot out after one pitch. Was cussing a lot when missing spots but man that FB had some real life on it.

If he is able to do 75 pitches he is close. They probably won't do a Cactus league game because they can't keep him on the DL to start the season.
