What the fuck? Wasting Collins as a pinch runner when Yermin is on deck and a righty with extreme splits pitching???????? That's so bad.

Have to pinch hit Collins for Yermin, right?

I didn't need to see that.

I agree but that becomes more difficult with Jose out.

No confidence in Yermin here.

Abreu was drilled in the side of the left knee in the bottom of the 6th inning. Couldn't even walk to first. Replaced by Vaughn. I'd be shocked if he's not done for the season.

Well, fuck.

He's still getting a decent number of singles and walks. Just no power from him in the last month or so.

Not a fan of bunting with one out, but with Gonzalez having no career hits vs lefties I'd consider it here.

Nice hit by Leury, but throwing him anything above the knees with 2 strikes is just plain stupid. He'll chase it for sure and either strike out or ground out.

Big zone favors the Sox. Other than Grandal, they're all swinging at that shit anyway.

In a four game series, how many no-hitters would our starting pitchers throw against our lineup?

Right but Vinnie Duber works for a TV station partly owned by the Sox. Doesn't seem like they let him run that story if it's not true.

Vinnie Duber posted this on nbcsportschicago.com, referencing Bob. Doesn't seem like he would do this if it wasn't a done deal.

Is it possible that Lambert is in the deal but the Sox need him to pitch Game 2 before he flies off to Arizona?

Thanks, I learned something new today. Just changed it.

Speaking of game 1, can @southsider2k5 or someone else change the game thread title from last night so it can be continued today?

There's already a thread for this game.

Suspended game resumes at 1:10 with the Sox batting in the bottom of the 3rd in a 0-0 game. PItching plans have not yet been announced.

Could a mod/admin please change the thread title for this game. Either of the following would be good: 1) GT 6/26-27 Suspended game that never should have been started: Mariners @ SOX 2) GT 6/27 G1: Mariners @ SOX

Even if not, call up Lambert and send Burdi down.

Wow, just got tornado warning #2.

On 6/12 the Sox scored 3 in the first at Detroit. Have scored a total of ONE first inning run since then. For all the arguing we do about how much Vaughn/Lamb/Goodwin should be playing, it's Anderson/Moncada/Abreu at the top of the order that are killing us.

It was confirmed on the ground near Crete. Lifted before crossing the state line at Lynwood/Dyer and then over Munster before rotation dissipated over Schererville.

Now there's a tornado warning for my house. In my basement watching for updates on NBC 5. Not watching the game.
