White Sox are giving up 5.24 runs a game, which shockingly isn’t league worst (Rockies are slightly worse), so might need to let them pitch from a little league mound as well.

Heh. The rare time I actually get a chuckle from The Bee.

Slight digression: When I was a kid, I read every baseball memoir I could get my hands on (and there were a decent amount in the '80s). One was Jay Johnstone's¹, which was a blast. One thing that Johnstone -- a man who had barely 100 homers in his nineteen years of MLB service -- noted was that he'd practiced so much with a hitting tee, he could crush homers on one nearly every time. He was noting how much of an impact even a mediocre MLB pitcher could be.
