Ok relax buddy, the other day you turned off the TV in the second inning of a game not sure you should be preaching to others about attitude.

Imagine thinking grandal wasn't a huge loss

Me, an idiot: The Sox have played 80% of the season with replacement guys from the minor league system. You, an intellectual: sOx HaVe No DePtH

If Keuchel is the teammate/leader he portrays himself to be, then he'd voluntarily take himself out of the rotation for Lopez

If any of you really think the Indians are catching this team...please stop posting. Your negativity is poison and we dont want you here. Sox are winning this division by at least 8 games.

I'd rather have Collins than Zavala

Collins is useless. Hopefully he never comes back.

It is time for the Chicago White Sox to continue their winning ways this evening! Series Background: The Chicago White Sox return home after a 3-4 road trip to host the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs finished their homestand with a 2-4 record, completing a series win over the Rockies on Thursday after being swept by Kansas City over the weekend. The White Sox swept the Cubs earlier this month at Wrigley Field, the first three game sweep by either team in this series since the White Sox swept the Cubs in Wrigley Field May 18-20, 2012. The Chicago White Sox hold a 68-63 record against the Cubs in interleague games. In addition, the Chicago White Sox hold a 4-2 advantage in World Series contests. Projected Starters: The projected starter for the Chicago White Sox is LHP Dallas Keuchel (8-7; 135 2/3 IP; 82 K; 4.71 ERA). Dallas has pitched well in Comiskey Park II this season, going 5-2 with a 4.07 ERA over 73 innings in 12 starts and 1 relief appearance. The Cubs are expected to start RHP Keegan Thompson (3-3; 44 2/3 IP; 44 K; 2.42 ERA). This will be Keegan's third career MLB start, with one in April, the second his last apperance when he faced the Kansas City Royals last weekend, allowing 5 hits and 2 runs, both earned, over 4 innings, 73 pitches. Lineup Presentation: Chicago White Sox Injury Updates: Yasmani Grandal 8/26 Update: Expected Return is this weekend. The Sox expect to carry two catchers with three upcoming off days over the next eight scheduled games. Seby Zavala likely the catcher to be sent to Charlotte or the taxi squad, until rosters expand in September, based on the fact he already was optioned this season. Adam Engel 8/26 Update: Expected Return TBD. Adam was diagnosed with right groin tightness on August 12, but has also been diagnosed with left (non-throwing arm) shoulder inflammation. Tony reported Engel has made "some progress" over the past two days, but there is still no plan for him to go on a rehab assignment. Billy Hamilton: Expected Return TBD. Billy Hamilton started his rehab assignment in Charlotte on August 21st, playing two games each at DH and CF, including his latest game on Thursday in Center Field. Final Game Thread Opening Post Thoughts: Let's continue with good positive thoughts and comments throughout the day and evening. For those attending the game, stay classy out there, keep the balls and cups in the stands, and keep your chants on a family friendly respectable level, Go White Sox!

Please stop. In fact I really don't want to see any Kimbrel sucks posts after this joyous game. Dude shouldn't have been out there in the first place and the runs he gave up were pretty meaningless. Enjoy this great victory.

So despite this nice comeback win, we now have a hole in the rotation and even more question marks about our $16 million co-closer who we all thought had just fixed himself the day prior. This team is fucking exhausting.

What a missed call. I looked at your user name and it all made sense.

Soxtalk tends to be on the pessimistic side, after so many years of frustration and disappointments. But with the full lineup back, except Engel, the needle will start moving towards the optimistic side now.

People still scoreboard watching and losing their shit will never be not funny to me

Lol…half of Harold’s posts on Soxtalk are calling people out in the major league gamethreads for ripping the lineups, and meanwhile here he is in the minor league gamethread ripping the lineups 🤣

He was probably facing these guys all year at AAA.

This is great and all but more importantly what is Cleveland doing??

This team sucks at fundamentals. They'll be out after the first round in the playoffs.

I too am thinking about the offseason after a decade of no playoffs where we are currently in a 9 game lead with a month to go.

Anything less than a sweep of the Cubs will be disappointing. The Sox shouldn't let this minor league team beat them even once.

Way to waste Kimbrel in a 7 run game just for him to give up 2 dingers.

Yeah, sure we’re going to get the equivalent of Madrigal, Heuer and $5+ million back for Kimbrel…

Kimbrel is batting practice for big league hitters right now. What an abysmal trade.

Crochet is not talented.

It has to help ReyLo to get a full 4 days rest between innings.

One of the best pitchers on one of the best pitching staffs in baseball just like we all predicted when he had a 6 ERA in Charlotte

Ha, even if we win Dallas deserves an L

Remember earlier when posters were worried about the indians taking the division lead....😂😂

That's just poop stains from his pitches being absolute shit

There's no reason to keep Keuchel in the rotation ahead of Lopez. Cleveland isn't catching the Sox, but getting a top 2 seed is very important and there's no reason to keep punting Keuchel starts when a vastly superior option is stretched out to take his place.

Aaaaand that’s why us more knowledgeable posters have been sounding the alarm on this team for weeks

This is cubs/sox. You just know sox are gonna come back.

Man, that lineup today, woo! Leury just keeping the seat warm in RF for Billy or Engel to come back, and then this lineup is fire

Hate this dude and his stupid ass arm perch.

Maybe Kimbrel is working on getting us a 1-run win.

24 Sox outs. 10 made by Hernandez and Garcia. Pretty hard for 2 guys to make 40% of the outs in a game.

Imagine having this take.

If Wright finishes the game he gets a save.

Haha thought same thing

I am at our football game and hear the Sox gave up 6 in the first. I get home and it is 13-6.

David Price immediately volunteered to pitch out of the Dodgers bullpen after being traded there. He's a better and more accomplished pitcher than Dallas.

Indians lost. Our long national nightmare is over.

Tie it up YAZ

look what we got here

Vaughn is slow as shit. He was out.

I'd switch Moncada and Robert, but when everyone is healthy, you really can't go wrong. If Engel is back, we will have an entire lineup of roughly .800 OPS hitters.

I'm glad Kimbrel got the save but anyone saying he's the closer now based on that.. confuses me.
