Since all great writers get plagiarized and I was inspired by our own good dolphin.

If they had Carlos " F'ing Cy Young" Rodon in the pen they win Game two in KC instead of Putnam they would have been 1-1.
If they had C"FCY"R as a starter instead of Johnny they win game three and are now 2-1.

The "Cubs fans caring about the White Sox" meter is off the charts.

It's a message board. Posting is what we do here. I didn't troll you with pictures of brooms or type 0-3 really big or post :lol:

and tell you I told you they suck balls.

Nope, I didn't do any of that.

Saving that for 0-6

Oh yeah, you've been a real sweetheart about this.

You care.

0--6 not gonna happen. 1-5 maybe.

When your 4-5 guys are Danks and Noesi... of course Carlos "GQ" Rodon would make a difference. I think he might not be Sale-good (few are) but I think he could be Quintana-level decent right now... with upside.

I appreciate the credit but you cannot put him as both a starter and reliever.

The BP Cup isn't the only inter-city baseball competition!

2 confirmed losses in a divison where Detroit and Kansas City are running away.

Whose prospect decision will cost the team more?

SteveSarley · **Posted:** Wed Apr 15, 2015 4:42 pm

Think how much impact there would have been if they kept Rodon and
used him as part of a four man rotation!

I'd put it at 1.

The bullpen hasn't given up a lead yet in any losses, and only has one game where they gave up runs when tied in losses.

Frank Coztansa · **Posted:** Wed Apr 15, 2015 8:08 pm

I'd put it at 0. He probably would not have started any of the three games in KC, the Sox scored 0 runs in their home opener, then won 3 in a row before giving up unearned runs today.

As I previously stated though, The "Cubs fans caring about the White Sox" meter is clearly still at a record high.

Rondon should take Danks spot in the rotation which moves him to the long-man role.

2 losses.

Time to admit I was WRONG ....he makes no difference.... only down 7-0 to the Redbirds 4.0 IP 7 ER 7h 3 BB 6K soon to be 3-3 with an AWESOME WHIP 1.61.....

Maybe let a guy pitch in the minors for a few weeks before you declare him Cy Young.

Just the fact that the notion of Fullmer pitching this year would not be dismissed by Hahn...come on.

But Rodon and Fullmer will get to work with "The BEST" pitching coach in ALL of baseball if they are with the big league club.... look what he did with guys like Aaardsma, Noesi, Axelrod, Danks, Paulino, Bellasario and Scott Downs..... just sayin'

Carlos Rodon's pitching coach at NC State was Tom Holliday, father of Matt Holliday, who hit a grand slam off the young LHP tonight.

Rodon is going to be a stud.

Cicero Dave · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2015 7:44 am

Just so all of the Cubs fans-- who claim not to care about the Sox-- know, the almighty Joe Maddon compared Rodon to James Shields only about 10 days ago. Far be it for a rookie to struggle a bit. Even the hitting God that is Kris "Babe" Bryant has cooled off quite a bit, correct?

The Sox are going nowhere this year, so might as well let this kid take some lumps and learn at the big league level.

I think we've seen enough flashes to know he's going to be really good.

.800 OPS over his last 30 days.

He is pretty damn good even when he sucks!

Completely agree, that's one him and the coaching. Yesterday was terrible but overall he's been fine and has shown great promise.

I don't think he'll be a HoF pitcher but he'll be good.
