Shocker. Not a fan of using Colome for more than 3 outs...seen that movie before. Alls well that ends well though.

Nice games for Eloy, TA and Jose. Moncada looked better too and just missed on a couple deep fouls. Nice to see him hit the ball with authority again.

Lot of pitches from the back end of the bullpen. Heuer had a nice outing too. Could use Lucas to go at least 7 tomorrow. I assume Colome will not be available after 40 pitches tonight.

The bullpen is absolutely gassed having to cover 4+ innings per night. They need Rodon or Gonzalez to get back soon. Are there any other healthy options left in Schaumburg? They could send Yolmer or Dyson down, those roster spots are luxuries right now and the bullpen needs are more pressing.

Just going to have to give more innings to Fry, Burdi, Heuer, Cishek, Flores and Detweiler unless one of those final two is starting on Monday.

Monday is an off date. Tue/Wed against Pit in Pittsburgh. Off day on Thursday. then 17 straight to end the season. 3 vs Detroit, 4 vs Minnesota, @ Cincinnatti for 3, @ Cleveland for 4 finishing with 3 vs the Cubs.

Ah thanks. Missed that. I knew Thursday was a day off. Guess we won't need a 5th starter until the 15th in Minnesota but then as you pointed out we'll need one all the way until the end because Thursday is our last off day this year which is only 3 more starts. Wonder if they bring Lopez back up and he's just down to get work in since he would get such a long break. I get the impression he asked out of the game the other night knowing he wasn't pitching well and feeling frustrated.

Jose Ruiz is the only currently available on the 40 man roster. As far as others in Schamburg, Crochet, Steiver, Kelley are a few that I'm aware of.

Lopez made comments after the game saying he didn’t know why he was pulled so early. I think he’s made his last start for the Sox, at least for this year, and maybe they bring him back up in a relief role. Though if he can’t regain his command he would only be usable in garbage time.

Rodon through another 60-pitches today, I think it was Fegan that I saw speculate that he would be in line to start on Wednesday if that went well.

[jcw218]

I know that the 12 players on the 40 man roster that aren't on the active roster are at the alternate training site. Is there an updated list somewhere of the other 20 or so names who are part of the White Sox player pool?

Interesting. He looked like he was ready to get the heck off the mound from my perspective.

This was from before his demotion, of course.

Not crazy about throwing 40 pitches over 1 1/2 IP, but the Royals always battle the Sox hard. Glad they are 7-1 against them this year.
