Hand to Head, Scratch Vigorously

Going into yesterday’s game at Detroit, Gavin Sheets had all of four games in the major leagues. So, why not bat the left-handed hitting rookie second against lefty Tarik Skubal? To me, it’s a dumb move, but who am I? Sheets went 0-for-3 with a walk, by the way. Dallas Keuchel coughed up a two-run lead in the fourth, then was given a two-run lead going into the bottom of the fifth. Keuchel proceeded to put five straight batters on, four via singles and one on a walk; two of the singles were on the first pitch, two on 1-0 counts, by the way. Goodbye, two-run lead, goodbye, five-game winning streak. Why the White Sox carry fifty or so pitchers is beyond me. Why have a bullpen if you’re not going to use it when necessary? Keuchel giving up one hit after another in the fifth would be a good sign to change pitchers, or would’ve been to me. But who am I?
