Prior to tonight’s game, the #WhiteSox placed RHP Zach Putnam on the 15-day disabled list & recalled RH Chris Beck from Charlotte.

Remember last week when people were mad the Sox didn't use Putnam? He was hurt. They just didn't want the other teams to know.

Should that have been in green? Just wondering, because this isn't like hockey where other teams can go target his injured area.

That's about the last thing this battered bullpen needs. Reminds me of August 2010, when Sox bullpen guys were dropping like flies, they had no one to replace them and they fell out of the race after leading the division if I recall right on August 1.

If I remember right, that bullpen was electric.

 

Then it died.

This really aggravates me about Putnam. He has been hurt for over a month and should have been on the DL. He was unable to pitch so many times in May/June and because Hahn did not put him on the DL it caused issues with the Sox bullpen depth.

He has been like that every season he has been with the White Sox. He can be really effective, but he's not going to have the availability of most relievers.

Danks must have really been finished with that release and the Sox to eat that salary…. If he had anything left in the tank he could at least have been used to soak up innings...

 

I don't think the Sox quite expected to end up where things are now. Danks was the only blemish in the pitching staff at the time of his release.

 

Beck should be interesting. His K/9 is up coming out of the pen. At least he's a former starter and should be able to go a few innings on Thursday...
