  1. If Texas is smart, they will get the bullpen up as soon as Dunning gives up a baserunner.
  2. Thank you. The good news is my wife in tiny, but she is tough. She will prevail. The scary news is she is a well insured person going to a top of the line hospital, and the comedy of errors is beyond alarming. What kind of care do the un or under insured get? What if this was life threatening?
  3. Today was a banner day for my wife's ongoing ordeal which has to be almost 6 weeks and no change to her condition. She had an appointment with a neurologist who was referred by a pulmonologist. She gets to her appointment with all her records,and referrals etc. The doctor spent the entire time telling her that she had no idea why my wife was referred to her, and had no clue who the doctor is who made the referral. So my wife broke down and cried as she as well as I, am beyond frustrated. The doctor did make a few calls and got her another appointment with someone else. Then, finally, gave her something for the pain. Of course, it made her throw up. Then she comes home and gets a phone call from the hospital. Seems the tests for which she had blood drawn last week, which resulted in 6 or 7 bandaids and guaze up and down her arms because they kept missing her vein, were lost because her name , despite always having to provide ID and an insurance card, were incorrectly entered into their system, and they have no way to find them. So she gets to go back and do it again. It is amazing people actually survive life threatening illnesses the way this system is set up.
  4. In a time saving effort, MLB should make the White Sox intentionally walk the first batter Bummer faces.
  5. Most people have it worse after the 2nd, but not always. My cousin's wife was like you after her first shot, but had nothing but a sore arm for 24 hours after the 2nd. Hopefully, that will be you.
  6. Ted Nugent who called the pandemic a scam, has the Covid.
  7. I think Burdi will get sent down and Stiever up for the Cleveland series.
  8. They have a big game tomorrow and the next day. Conceding was the correct call.
  9. After he threw his no hitter last year, Jason asked him about what he did the morning after. Apparently, Lucas isn't a morning guy. I think he just had a bad game, and the early start may have played a role.
  10. Fabulous Freddie’s in Bridgeport is cashing in on the fast start of a new Chicago White Sox player. The Italian-American joint has introduced the “Yerminator,” a Dominican chimichurri burger named after Yermín Mercedes, a 28-year-old rookie.
  11. They should have traded this loser when they had the chance.
  12. It is starting to seem Foster was a one year wonder. He started falling apart late last year and his appearance in the final playoff game was beyond awful.
  13. He was definitely passed his previous pitch counts and the top of the 4th was a long half inning
  14. The weakest ,slowest, least talented player in baseball with a big leg double.
  15. I think Yermin should punk Ron and come to bat with a mouthful of chaw.
  16. Didn't you read the first gamethread? Grandal has packed it in.
  17. I never thought of that. Good catch. Can't blow it in the 8th if it doesn't get there.
  18. Cmon Steve, sure he should have hit the cutoff man, but even if he did, they had no shot at Abreu at the plate.
  19. I think it will be an Engel, Leury and maybe Lamb platoon.
  20. I am sure unless Yermin suddenly sucks or he or Abreu gets hurt, Vaughn is getting sent down when Engel is ready.
