Rahimi & Grote Show · Russ Dorsey is having a hard time feeling sorry for the White Sox right now · 24 Sep 2026 podcast

And I think that's how you have to think of it. voice-verified

The first inning in a playoff game is not the first inning in a regular season game. voice-verified

I've seen things go haywire for all-star level starters where the manager has to warm somebody up in the first inning because things get kind of wonky. voice-verified

And so for the White Sox, it's... voice-verified

You can't afford to have big innings, right? voice-verified

Like you can't afford to let guys get themselves out of trouble. voice-verified

And I think the problem with that is you only have so many bullets in the chamber in that bullpen. voice-verified

Like if you have to go to the well to start the game, it's just like things have to go so perfectly for you to win. voice-verified

They are, both teams, definitely the definition of limping into the postseason. voice-verified

I think for the Cubs, and I might be crazy here, I think the best thing that has happened to the Cubs this week is the fact that they're going to play a doubleheader tomorrow, play one game on Saturday, and then get two days off because they need that type of reset right now. voice-verified

And I think for where their pitching situation is, voice-verified

I think that is as big a blessing as you can get this time of year to get multiple days off, especially if you're going to have to play in the wildcard round. voice-verified

You're going to have to go out west likely to play the San Diego Padres in that wildcard round starting on Tuesday. voice-verified

And so now two days off, you get full rest for your bullpen. voice-verified

You kind of get to sort things out the way you want them to for that round. voice-verified

But yeah, I just kind of think the mental reset and physical reset of not playing on Sunday and then not playing on Monday, I think that's huge for the Chicago Cubs in this whole thing. voice-verified

Do I think they are... voice-verified

Firing on all cylinders like a team like the San Diego Padres is right now, I don't. voice-verified

But I think that rest, at least you can go into that series and say, okay, we don't have to worry about who's rested and who's not. voice-verified

You could say everybody's available, everybody's healthy, and we're going to run 26 guys out there feeling like, well, this is our best opportunity to advance to the DS. voice-verified
