The next month we now have 3 pitchers! We will get lucky if anyone has a good outing. Tonight Carrasco is going to get rocked and we will need to use the bullpen. Is this going to be 2 of every 5 games? Overuse the pen so when we really need them they are taxed.
I am already looking for next year, then I will be excited as no way this team makes the playoffs.


Contreras is the 4th starter....I don't know that he'll be as horrible as you think, I'd guess some good, some bad. The other 3 starters are fine.

Thanks to some off days next month, the fifth starter will only be necessary 3 times, barring any rainouts along the way. I wouldn't be shocked if the White Sox call up right hander Carlos Torres, even though his motion reminds me similar to current Sox reliever Octavio Dotel, from Triple "AAA" Charlotte the next time a 5th is needed. Carlos pitched well enough to win in that one start when John Danks was sidelined with a blister, even though he got a no-decision to show for it about a week ago vs. Tampa Bay and a bus ticket back to Charlotte afterwards.
