3GamesToLove Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 11:51 AM) As if I needed more reasons to love Chris Sale, him banging on the Royals clubhouse to get to Volquez (so the rumor seems to be) makes me love him even more. For so long it seemed the Sox played without that heart and fire you see on other teams. I think you mean Ventura. And nah, it's dumb. I love Chris Sale as a pitcher, but this stuff is dumb.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 25, 2015 -> 12:24 PM) You can bet they appeal and drop appeals so that Sale and Samardjiza aren't suspended at the same time. Doesn't MLB let teams spread out suspensions when they have multiple? QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 11:18 AM) Just want to point out that Sale and Samardzija aren't really missing a start. The Sox are just forced to use a 6th starter, and the guy at the end of the rotation will miss the start around the all-star break. If they really wanted to punish a starting pitcher, they really should be forced to miss 10 games. So it's all good. They really should. Alter their fines so it's the equivalent of how many games they are being forced to "miss" so it's not unfair financially and maybe create a suspension list that operates the same as bereavement/paternity in allowing teams to call up a 26th man. Suspensions for starting pitchers really are kind of a joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Samardzija is starting tomorrow if there's a game, vs Ubaldo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 06:57 PM) Samardzija is starting tomorrow if there's a game, vs Ubaldo. Makes sense, skip your 5th starter when you have an unforeseen off-day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sale does the same after tomorrow then Rodon or Carroll get a start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how make ups are done, we could be looking at doubleheaders being needed, which would have made things worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 So, back to this: Guessing: Wed: Samardzija (which is confirmed) at Minnesota- Sale, Quintana, Carroll, Danks Detroit- Noesi, Samardzija, Sale Cincinnati- Quintana, Danks, Noesi at Milwaukee- Samardzija, Sale, Quintana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 03:31 PM) I think you're right but two things. Any reason to be sure it's Carroll and not Rodon? and how do you know Carroll (or Rodon) is going Saturday as opposed to Friday/Sunday/Monday? I split Danks and Quintana up. Carroll instead of Rodon because it hasn't reached the point where somebody needs to be dropped from the rotation. He was brought up to be in the pen, for now. Might as well leave him there. Better yet, send him back to Charlotte to start again, and forget he was ever brought up. But I'm sure some will disagree with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Guess they aren't dropping the suspensions until after Detroit. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/593143325735133185 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconOnAStick Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I get the feeling the Sox are going to get a little break from MLB for dealing with Angelos' stubborn loathing of DC. Perhaps in the form of Sale winning his appeal and Samardizija getting a 3 game suspension that's merely ceremonial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Detroit, we're definitely better than all the other teams. Win tomorrow, get back to .500 and get this thing started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 03:44 PM) No, Hayes clarified his cryptic tweet saying that he was just lining it up and that it's unknown right now. Right now for certain: Samardzija @ BAL, Sale-Q-Noesi @ MIN. I'd still assume that Shark/Sale drop appeals after their respective starts. Yeah, the White Sox aren't going to announce that they are dropping suspensions on X date. It will just come out when it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
