9/22 White Sox @ Boston 7:10pm ET

[Randy Red Sox]

way to win the big ones boys. Let's sweep CWS and screw our draft choice

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Chris Martin shows how to pitch in relief all year long. Yoshi had the GW RBI

 

I seriously can't remember the last time Martin gave up a run.

[Randy Red Sox]

Signing Martin for 2 years was one of Bloom's better moves.

 

for sure. guy is a stud

i agree. Martin has been money all season long. wish we had 6 more just like him.

The White Sox hit three line drives for three outs. This was not one of Martin's best outings.

 

Excellent game, however. Good pitching by the Sox and just enough hitting.

I seriously can't remember the last time Martin gave up a run.

 

Just checked. In Martin's last 26 innings pitched he has given up 1 earned run. The fact that he mostly starts an inning makes that stat even more amazing.

Man, Story goes 3 for 4 and only gets up to .540.

 

Hope he can do much better in '24.

[MANNYHOF24]

5 scoreless from the Ace tonight

He's putting up Uehara type numbers.

Is anyone less impressed than myself with Whitlock as a key piece of the pitching puzzle ? He is about to blow Sale's chance for a win. But so did many of the Sox batters so far

 

20 pitches 1 out, run allowed. Great job

 

Trace Thompson who drives in the lead run is a .178/.636 hitter. Whitlock still not out of the inning with 2 RISP.

 

Cora, again, shoots himself in the game of bullpen roulette

 

They f***ed him by putting him as a starter. He's never been the same since.

I still have faith he can return to form.

 

Remember, he did have hip surgery, last September.

5 scoreless from the Ace tonight

 

Raising false hopes, again.

 

I still would not count on anything from him. We need to plan our staff as if he won't pitch a single inning. If he does, it can be gravy.

Probably the best.

 

Before tonight's game, his OPS Against was .575.

 

Stunning!

DFA Yoshida

 

Nah, let’s pay him $100M to hit ground balls instead.
