I'm mad. That Gade TV I was getting on Roku got yanked. I was able to get MLB Network and the CBC (Canadian Broadcast Company) for hockey. That cuts out any Sox games I was watching on MLB Network. Now all I can get is if the Sox are the free game of the day.

More incentive for Rock More fuel for Ricky to bunt.

Crap

Will they let Helen pitch to Leury ?

When was the last Sox HR ?

Ok 2nd and 3rd no outs so NO BUNT !

McMann

Might have to change that to 8 after that short inning.

Hoping Gio can go 7 and we tack on a few more runs.

So that means we will get our usual 1 All Star

Leury owning Helen.

Love in the air for Charlie Tilson.

woo: try to gain the love of (someone), it's spring time get it ? Never mind carry on .

Because it's spring time ?

Sac Fly by Yonder ties it. Let's go Eloy.

Not exactly what I was hoping for after a 4 pitch walk to Moncada. A 1st pitch swing by ABreu on a pitch out of the zone for a sac fly RBI.

Bags juiced. Make up for that DP Jose.

3 hits in a row. Keep it going YoYo.

OK rally time no DP's

Ummm so 2 games threads for the suspended game and a thread about the start time but where's the 2nd game thread ?

I always have to give props for any rock reference. The Who 's "We Won't Get Fooled Again,"

The Sox really can't even assume Kopech and Dunning will be back 100 % from TJ . Burdi is taking a while , Wheeler from the Mes had TJ and it took him over 2 years to get his stuff back together. It's not a given that once cleared to pitch that they actually will pitch or pitch effectively.

I don't think even the most optimistic ever thought of him as a run producer. His upside is just a good all around baseball player who can help a team by getting on base , extending rallies, driving in some runs and fielding his position and running the bases well. More like Whit Merrifield without Merrifield's power and frankly Id be very pleased with that.

And that's not a terrible thing at all. I am often guilty of the same thing but time has taught me to be more of a pragmatist. I often will stick up for prospects when they are badmouthed but that doesn't mean I don't see the faults that cause the badmouthing. Hope is a wonderful thing if used in moderation.

Madrigal hasn't even made it to AA yet and AA is the hardest step . That would be a huge leap for him. https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/white-sox/white-sox-prospect-nick-madrigal-leads-minors-strikeout-rate-its-not-translating-hits Ok you tell me what exactly are Sox employees supposed to say? 1st half results on Madrigal are not encouraging so of course Getz will say look at the 2nd half. It's their job to paint a rosy picture. I am not saying it's a bleak picture at all , just be a little more realistic. There's only one chance that Madrigal starts the season in 2020 with the Sox and that's if he all of a sudden goes on a tear and hit's .350 jumps through AA at the same pace and ends the year in AAA. But I'd bet you dollars to doughnuts he won't even make it to AAA by the end of the year. And it's 50/50 on him even making it to AA at some point this year.
