Series Thread: White Sox - Reds 3 game series 9/18 - 9/20

[Lake Shore Drive]

Sorry to jump the gun on Jid and richi, but I was excited to see that Keuchel will be starting in the 2nd game against the Reds, at least if the ESPN Sox schedule is correct. Stiever tonite and Cease closes Sunday against Bauer (GULP!!)

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

Speaking of Bauer, I sure as hell wouldn't mind seeing the Sox go after him in the offseason. He's up there with DeGrom and Darvish for the Cy Young. Bauer's famous for only signing one year contracts, which would probably be right up Reinsdorf's alley. But even if he wanted 3-4 years, I'd like to see the Sox at least take a shot at him like they did for Wheeler.

That would be great. He's going to get paid by someone.

Yeah, I figure the Yanks and the Red Sox will throw a friggin wad at him, and probably other teams will do likewise. We'd definitely have to pony up.

 

[Jiddy]

Probably for the best you started it...Mine would have been "White Sox vs. Richi's Catch 'o the Day 9/18-9/20"

 

[Mingo]

It was reported the Keuchel's start in Cincy was to set up the rotation for the first playoff series.

Just cruised by the Palace

Whoa.....check out this latest development:

In an eye-opening promotion, the White Sox have selected the contract of left-hander Garrett Crochet, general manager Rick Hahn announced to reporters today (Twitter link via Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times). Chicago drafted the 21-year-old lefty out of Tennessee with the 11th overall pick of the 2020 draft. Righty Evan Marshall is going on the 10-day injured list with shoulder inflammation, which opens an active roster spot. Right-hander Ian Hamilton was designated for assignment to open a spot on the 40-man roster.

Big loss with Marshall going on the 10 day IL. Let's hope he'll be ready by playoff time. He's been one of the most consistent relievers in the Sox stable this year. Now all this means is Crochet has been promoted to the 40 man roster, not the active roster, altho that looks to be imminent. He'll likely be amping up his workouts and throwing sessions over in Schaumburg. Wonder if the Sox will make room for him and see what he's got in the next few days. But way more important is getting Marshall back by playoff time.

Wait...The new kid we just drafted might play? WTH...LOL...I think our management is just so overwhelmed by our success that they're now at the point of dipping into any well they can...It's all gold Jerry! GOLD!!!

I'm happy for the kid and being we've already clinched a spot in the postseason, hell why not take a chance and see what he's got. Hopefully they will put him in the most harmless of situations, ie we're up or down by 5,6 runs in the late innings. However, my happiness for Crochet getting a late season shot does not match my concern over Marshall on IL.

Bauer has also given the White Sox a lot of praise on social media and on his YouTube channel where he breaks down pitching. He broke down Giolito's no hitter pitch-by-pitch.

That’s pretty cool. I’ve always gotten a kick out of him.

Wow, that's pretty cool stuff - good find rich. I wonder if over the weekend, some of the Sox don't drop a number of not-so-subtle hints as to how cool Bauer would look in a Sox uni next year.

 

[idseer]

i don't see how it's possible jose swung at that last pitch,

 

[idseer]
