White Sox

[Butcher]

Thats a pretty good major league debut, all things considered. He has nasty stuff. High 90s, good breakout pitches. That trade is going to haunt us for a while.

A colleague of yours, a fellow academic, participated. Joe Bonomo teaches essay writing at NIU in Dekalb. I haven't read his Roger Angell book yet, but it's on my nightstand. That counts, right?

This may be the best reason in a long time to watch a White Sox game.

I love the big hippie but that's gonna be a train wreck.

[mrfelina]

What in the fuck?

 

9 innings? I'm already embarrassed for the guy.

 

He got me into the '88 GD NYE show (those were hard tickets) so I'd do anything for him but man...that's going to be a fucking shitshow.

[VanSlawAndCottoCheese]

So Dylan Cease is not ready for prime time.

[rok]

Yeah. I think he was rushed big time. Still looks like a reliever longer term, but I'm no scout.

[mrfelina]

Now if someone can only Gillooly Torres.

[funkster]

Was going to say, he's been pretty awful so far.  Then again, Giolito was able to turn it around. Same might happen.

[funkster]

Another 8 earned for Cease today.

Meanwhile, Eloy has been below replacement value (at least using bWAR)

[rok]

As much as I'm enjoying the Sox organization's struggles to develop players during this rebuild and other hilarious missteps, I can't help but envy their current situation and outlook for the next 5+ years. Could be very bleak around these parts by 2021.
