  1. Mlbtv came back late from the commercial so the ad turned into Benetti emphatically declaring “Blood on Tuesday September 7th!”
  2. Without answering yet…don’t forget the names Acuna and Franco while making lists like this. Maybe Soto too?
  3. Tampa Bay Rays vs. Bishop Sycamore.
  4. There's a difference between "I don't want to set my expectations too high" and "Will the White Sox beat the Astros? Probably not". You are fully correct the White Sox would be underdogs in that series, having lost the season series to the Astros 5-2 and assuming the Astros hold onto the #2 seed. I can see lots of ways that goes badly for the White Sox and would really like to pass the Astros for that #2 seed, but I won't get anywhere close to "The White Sox probably will lose that series".
  5. I would have picked 90% with the current knowledge, but I would strongly support that effort. It should be treated like the measles vaccine and mandatory, but well, you know.
  6. And this is why everyone has confidence in our bullpen right now in so many situations.
  7. If he's this bad in September, yanking him after he gives up 6 runs to Houston...gets us eliminated, since that would be game 4.
  8. Lynn’s era went from 2.20 to 2.59 today. Ray is next at 2.70 in the AL.
  9. “Reynaldo, we really want you to throw like 75 pitches tonight so you are ready for whatever we need next week. Can you go out there and give me your best for one more inning or until you pile up some pitches? If you get in real trouble I will get Jose ready.”
  10. After everything this bullpen had to do to survive against Torotno, no one but Wright should have pitched after Lopez.
  11. Look he’s just bad right now and there’s no excuse, they have to figure out how to work him. But it’s equally rotten that he was ever in this game!
  12. Of course we could have just left the guy who got 15 outs while facing 14 batters in until he gave up a base runner.
  13. Oh come on so we are pitching a useful reliever 2 days in a row because we took Lopez out early? F*** me.
  14. I mean, he does need some big league work. One off day this weekend and he gets 2 off days next week.
  15. I don’t care if he hits .220 if he has a .675 OPS because he constantly swings for the fences.. in that role? Great.
  16. It’s the Cubs. I have been at games like this before. If you’re there, you indulge every single score.
