Jose Abreu Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Ventura on Rodon: "If he does or doesn’t win rookie of the year, doesn’t mean anything about what’s going to happen next year." What are Rodon's ROY chances? His main competition, I'd say, is Correa of Houston, but he has cooled off a bit. Granted, he's still at .273/18/52 in just 85 games. Rodon is 7-6 with a 3.94 ERA/3.85 FIP entering tonight's start. His 1.76 ERA since 8/11 is the lowest in the American League and 5th-lowest in majors. FWIW, if you take out his two terrible outings (vs PIT/STL) he has a 3.12 ERA. Abreu was the 2014 AL ROY. Could Rodon win it in 2015?

ChiSoxFanMike Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Correa, Lindor, and Sano all have a better chance to win than him sadly. But that doesn't discount what he's done this year. He's had a hell of a season, and he's improved so much from when he started. I can't wait to see how he does in a full season next year.

Sox Fan In Husker Land Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 He won't win it, but his last 7 outings including tonight have been awesome. At a time when most rookies pitchers hit the wall he is performing his best. 48 2/3 IP. 9 ER. 33 H. 16 BB. 45 K. 1.66 ERA. 1.00 WHIP. 8.32 K/9.

greg775 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Oops I commented in the game thread, didn't see this. Lindor has to win it. He's too special. But Rodon ... my gosh what a talent. He's a fixture in our rotation for 15 years if he stays healthy. I can't understand how we don't win more with Sale, Rodon, Q and a Danks who was definitely an average big league starter this year. Robin had "some" talent to work with this year. We're a little lefthanded heavy though. I'd sign a veteran starter, one of those guys who get two year deals at 6-8 mill a year and trade one of our lefties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be gone as soon as he hits free agency with Boras as his rep . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Rodon will be in the rotation through the Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama, and Clinton kid administrations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously, I'd be extremely happy if the Sox could lock him up for the next decade and a half. I don't see that happening though.

I don't see that happening though. Yeah he won't take a team-friendly extension with Boras as his agent and the Sox never give out big contracts to pitchers.

Hell of a stretch Rodon is having! He's come such a long long way in a short period of time. He's done an incredible job of limiting his walks.

bjm676 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 he will help soften the blow, if they do in fact trade Quintana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I love how RISP doesn't even phase him now compared to when he was Mr. Mustache in the bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
