What is it about the White Sox and
pitchers who always look on the sunny side?
First, it was Jacob Turner, then Carson Fulmer, and, now it looks to be
Reynaldo Lopez. Why, oh why?
Lopez made his spring debut
yesterday and needed 61 pitches to get nine outs. Three hits, three walks and two wild pitches
wouldn’t make me a happy camper, but Lopez felt differently. “I liked all my pitches,” he told reporters
through an interpreter after the game, “they were all good.” In that case, how come thirty of them went
for balls? Or maybe we were supposed to
figure out for ourselves what those pitches were good for.
Lopez says, “My goal right now or
my focus is in my work.” Lopez admits to
losing focus at times last year, and focus is “something that’s going to be the
key for me to have success this year.”
Hmm. He threw 61 pitches, barely half of them for
strikes. If this is focus, I’d hate to
see the lack thereof.
