chw42 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 19, 2016 -> 08:53 PM) Sale's ERA under 1.50 now. Pitch count in the mid-80's. Hate this decision coming up for Ventura...if he "sails" through the 8th, I hope to god Ventura leaves him in and doesn't bring Robertson into the game. Sale's the best pitcher in the world right now, and we really need this game, about as much as any game this season so far. Robin should be grilled if he takes Sale out under those circumstances. Even if he's at 100+ pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Tigers going in a small funk and he'd just carry them at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Swinging 2-0? Okay, but it might be better to work the count even more and get McHugh out of the game. Your goal should be to reach 1st base any way possible, and hopefully add on an insurance run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Tigers going in a small funk and he'd just carry them at times. The Tigers have had some other really good pitchers (especially Scherzer and now Zimmerman), but when he was going good from 2006-2012/13, you just couldn't beat him. He would keep adding velocity and become harder and harder to hit as the game wore on. You just hoped and prayed to extend his pitch count and get the game to the pen...of course, at that time, especially early in his career, the White Sox had some excellent fastball hitters, Konerko especially. Sabathia, Johan Santana for almost his entire Twins' career and Liriano in 2006 were the other ones that come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
