A return to the Sox would be likelier if Boras was not involved.

It is the main reason that the Sox have the best record in the AL.

Wow! One hit combined shut out against one of the best teams in the majors. A dominating pitching performance. Strong message sent to Astros and other top teams that Sox are indeed a top team to reckon with.

Major brain fart. Why isnt our 3rd coach telling him not to comeback to the base once Abreu is on the base.?

Glad it was not Goodwin in there.

I agree. If Astros would come back and win this game,it would be devastating. We need to show grit against top teams.

Sox base running is a team weakness.

Engel should have stayed put at 3rd in the first place, and should have stayed on the bag on the way back. Double blunder.

WhiteSox are taking over Chicago baseball scene with the Cubs in free fall and selling their stars.

Should try extending him now. Won’t be easy.

Need to win today. A comeback win by the Astros would be devastating. Worry about the weaker Twins tomorrow.

David Adler of MLB.com is comparing Rodon to de Grom. Carlos being the left handed version with devastating fastballs/slider combination. With de Grom out with forearm tightness, Carlos is probably #1 dominating pitcher in baseball active today.

I think is because Leury is a switch hitter and TLR loves lefty-righty: righty-lefty match ups.

Great pitching by Lucas and a power surge is a formula for victory against any team. Glad to see the guys getting more balls up the air including several big flys,rather than a lot of ground balls. Don’t stop now boys.

He is dealing more than a Vegas croupier.

When you have guys like Ruiz lurking in the bullpen you can never relax.

Because he is hitting left handed and TLR is obsessive at having lefties hitting righties.

Another base running blunder. Leury has not been playing well lately.. He is a utility player playing every day having his brain farts. What about our first base coach yelling to Leury to not tag on that play...

Great news. Would we have enough left to sign Rodon as well?

Abreu kept hitting ground balls to third. Didn’t move the runner in the 1stinning and hit into a double play later. We need to hit and run more, we are mostly a ground ball hitting team. Need to press the defense more and open holes with the hit and run.

OK. Thanks for your feedback.

Would have pitched Rodon tonight to have a better chance before the big crowd.

Like someone said earlier it is time to stop theGoodwin batting 4th experiment.

Just curious, does anyone know why we didn’t pitch Rodon tonight. He did not pitch in the all star game, and he is, along with Lynn, our best and toughest pitcher. A win tonight would have give us momentum going forward in the series.

Sox have the starting pitching to compete in the playoffs, just need to improve offense and defense and 8th inning pitching.
