Grant Taylor's pitched against really tough batters, and Grant Taylor, for the most part, ain't been hit.
They've got Sir Anthony Taminga's kind of rolling right now, and I've really been impressed with Tyler Davis over his last couple of outings.
He's moving up the leverage ladder, and we haven't even talked about Brian Hudson yet, who's one of the best left-handed relievers in all of baseball right now, which is just kind of crazy.
It's a great, fascinating question.
I think the talent there is undeniable, right?
The White Sox, I think it was Will Vettable who was talking the other day, or maybe it was Zach Bob, the pitching coach was talking.
You know, Cody, you know how it goes.
The days all blend together.
Oh, I know.
He was right.
He was sorry.
The days of Grant opening in the immediate future are probably done.
There was a lot of fuss put up about when he was opening.
I thought it was a pretty simple case of this is a guy who pitches high leverage.
The White Sox at the time weren't playing as well as they are now.
You needed to guarantee the ability to pitch Grant Taylor.
So opening was kind of the highest leverage you can guarantee.
You can't let that closer rust away, like Steve Stone likes to say all the time.
And it's very true.
They want to get Grant 100 innings this year.
