It’s not that the White Sox are losing, it’s who’s doing the losing.
In Carson Fulmer’s case, it’s who’s doing the stinking.
The inept and inert Sox handed Fulmer an unimaginable 6-1 lead after 1 ½ innings in Oakland on Wednesday afternoon, but the right-hander couldn’t get an out in the bottom of the second inning. Couldn’t get one stinkin’ out, in fact, when his job was reduced to simply throwing strikes, letting his fielders get outs and moving things along.
This was a big opportunity for a big question mark in the Sox’s rebuilding.
