GLENDALE David Price Jersey , Ariz. (AP) — Ivan Nova didn’t expect to be traded last offseason. But now that he’s with the Chicago White Sox, he knows where he fits into the team’s plans — to make 30 starts and be a mentor, if needed.“If I’ve got to approach somebody, I’ll do it my way,” Nova said Wednesday at White Sox camp.“I’m not a type of guy that’s going to step up in front of everybody and say something. I don’t like to get involved in anyone’s personal space. But if I’ve got to say something to someone, I’m going to grab them aside and do it that way,” he said.Nova’s way on the mound has been throwing strikes and getting ahead of hitters. The 32-year-old right-hander was acquired from Pittsburgh after going 9-9 with a 4.19 ERA in 29 starts last season for the Pirates. The White Sox gave up a prospect and some international slot money to get a pitcher they hope can fill the veteran starter role that James Shields held the last few years.“It’s a good thing that teams out there still want you,” Nova said. “It’s way different when nobody wants you. It’s surprising, especially after the type of meeting you have with the organization where you think you’re going to stay there one more year, and then you find out they trade you.”The Pirates are embarking on a rebuilding program, while the White Sox enter the third year of their teardown with hopes of beginning the climb back to contention.Nova joins Reynaldo Lopez, Carlos Rodon and Lucas Giolito in the first four slots of the White Sox rotation.“I’m looking forward to watching him throw and talking to him,” Giolito said. “He’s a strike-thrower. That’s what we need to do as a starting staff http://www.redsoxproshops.com/authentic-mookie-betts-jersey , fill up the zone.”“Having someone to keep us grounded and guide us in the right direction. We (young pitchers) can be all over the place sometimes,” he said.Manager Rick Renteria remembers when Nova was one of those young pitchers. A decade ago, Renteria was a coach with the San Diego Padres, who took Nova in the Rule 5 draft from the Yankees. The Padres didn’t keep him past spring training, though, and Nova returned to New York’s roster.“He’s a professional,” Renteria said. “He brings in experience and the ability to communicate with everybody across the board. He can keep us in ballgames.”Nova likes what he sees in the early days of spring training as he gets familiar with his new teammates.“I think we’ve got a lot of talent, good enough to compete. That’s what I see. I see that in the faces of these guys. They’re hungry, they want to win. I know they’re young, but they have big expectations,” he said.And helping them meet those expectations is something Nova sees as his responsibility.“You can’t be shy. You’ve got to be yourself. I’m probably new for a lot of these guys, but there are other guys I’ve seen in the past from playing against each other. So it’s not difficult,” he said. DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Rockies‘ younger players are making their presence felt down the stretch.Rookie infielder Ryan McMahon had a pinch-hit home run and Carlos Gonzalez tripled with the bases loaded during a five-run seventh inning that carried NL West leading Rockies past the San Francisco Giants 6-2 on Tuesday night.David Dahl Brock Holt Jersey , who played in only 19 minor league games last season because of a stress reaction in his rib cage after making his major league debut late in 2016, also homered for the Rockies. On Monday, rookie Noel Cuevas had a pinch-hit two-run single to make the difference in a 9-8 win over the Giants.Colorado, bidding for its first NL West title, has a lead in the division in September or October for the first time since 1995. It was the fourth straight loss for the Giants, who also have lost six in a row to Colorado.“It’s just a really good group, especially the contributions we’re getting from the young guys,” Gonzalez said after the Rockies’ 40th come-from-behind win of the season. “Yesterday was Cuevas. Tonight was McMahon with a huge home run to tie the game. After that, we were able to keep the momentum going, getting guys on and trying to get that big hit.”Rockies starter German Marquez had shut down the Giants since allowing a run in the first inning, striking out 11 over 6 2-3 innings. But with two outs and the bases clear in the seventh, Gorkys Hernandez snapped a 1-1 tie with his second home run in as many games.That set the stage for a rally in the bottom of the seventh by the Rockies, who batted around after being limited to a run in six strong innings by Dereck Rodriguez.With one out http://www.redsoxproshops.com/authentic-rusney-castillo-jersey , McMahon drove an 0-1 offering from reliever Reyes Moronta (5-2) over the wall in straightaway center for his second pinch homer of the season.“Honestly, I was just trying to get a knock for the team and get the next guy up there,” McMahon said. “It just worked out. Marquez went out there and pitched so well. He’s been amazing. We were just out there and we were going to grind through it. This team is pretty resilient. It’s a fun group to be around.”An infield single by Charlie Blackmon — his third hit of the game — and walks to D.J. LeMahieu and Nolan Arenado loaded the bases before Gonzalez tripled to the wall in center off Ty Blach.Pinch-hitter Gerardo Parra drew a bases-loaded walk off Sam Dyson to drive in the final run of the inning to vault the Rockies into a four-run lead.“It’s a shame that we can’t hold onto some of these games, certainly when he’s pitching,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said of the effort by Rodriguez. “What a nice job he did.”Chris Rusin (2-2) got the final out in the seventh for the victory. Adam Ottavino and Wade Davis each pitched scoreless innings to finish up.Gregor Blanco singled to lead off the game and stole second before Joe Panik followed with an RBI single. The Rockies evened the score when Dahl started the second with a home run, his ninth of the season.TRAINING ROOMGiants: CF Steven Duggar underwent season-ending surgery Tuesday to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. “All went well,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “He came out of it fine.” Duggar suffered the injury a week ago diving back into second base. He’s expected to be ready in time for spring training.GIANTS MOVES: RHP Jeff Samardzija (right shoulder inflammation) has been transferred to the 60-day disabled list and INF Abiatal Avelino had his contract purchased from Triple-A Sacramento. He is awaiting his major league debut.ROCKIES MOVES: RHP D.J. Johnson had his contract selected from Triple-A Albuquerque and is making his debut on a major league roster.
