There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Motives aside, am I supposed to root "against" Lynn because the Sox gave up a young arm to get him? That's why the posts above yours were dumbfuck posts.

I liked Dunning and hope he has a long career with a lot of success, except for when he pitches against the Sox.

FF "spiked the ball," I just quoted it and laughed.

Dumbfuck post.

You spiked the ball on Nardi for questioning trading Dunning after one good game by Lynn. Trading Dunning wasn't the only only option. Spending money now when you are supposedly in your window means you don't have to deal your trade chips in the off season.

Oh. Well then in that case, those 3 good starts from Dunning makes it case closed the other way.

Lynn is on the DL.

I think the prevailing sense was that Lynn was a proven deal, and Dunning was not. This could be one of those trades that works out for both teams. Yes, time will tell.

Talk about spiking the ball. The guy made 33 starts in 2019, 31 in 2017, 33 in 2017, and lead the league with 13 starts last year.

Yeah, but the guys that consistently have great command are few and far between. And it helps to have "stuff" on the days when the command isn't there.

Back when they were both in their prime a popular Cubs/Sox argument was whether Wood or Buehrle was the better pitcher. Of course, the modern fans who think Ks are everything thought it was a silly argument. It was certainly silly. Just not in the way they thought. But Buehrle had exceptional command and on the rare occasions when he didn't, he didn't last long. Wood's big stuff could cover for a lot of sins.

Bottom line: I think Dunning is safer than Cease or Kopech, but the chance that he might be truly great is less than for the other two.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

Dane Dunning may still end up being a good pitcher, but this will still be a good trade for the Sox. Lynn has been better than advertised.

It's also looking like the Sox picked the correct pitcher to give up on between Cease and Dunning.

But I do think, if every other young pitcher pays attention, that Lance Lynn is everything you want in a veteran. He goes hard and he doesn't fuck around with pussy looky-loo hitters.

So far this trade has directly yielded one win for the White Sox.
