Seems like the Star Telegram's Stefan Stevenson and Keith Law had a little dust up over TCU's treatment of pitchers.

The burden of proof is on Keith Law. Has he published any proof before? Stevenson is right to be skeptical until some actual evidence is out there.

I didn't see him present any today.

Colby never really was a hard thrower, I wouldn't expect that at this stage of ST, coming off knee surgery, that he would be too concerned about working on his velocity. If he's still at 84 in a few weeks, maybe there should be concern, but not in his second start I wouldn't think

Brinson gets a single and a stolen base and scores on Rua's double. Rua is 2 for 2 so far.

Gallo is 0 for 2 with a strikeout so far.

Guzman has made a couple of good plays at 1B.

White Sox Outright Mike Olt

Olt, 27, was once a top prospect in the Rangers organization, but he’s dealt with vision issues and has not yet been able to translate his robust minor league offensive production to the major league level. Over 400 career MLB plate appearances, Olt has slashed just .168/.250/.330 with a 37% strikeout rate, though he has hit 16 home runs in that span.
