Today is going to be fun. Regardless out the outcome the team has come a looong way since 2016. Win or lose, the next 4-5 years will be fun. Go Sox!

And now the game is halted. Why even start the damn game? No way Tanaka or Carrasco come back now. What a travesty by the MLB

I came in here to post this exact thought ?

"From Death Valley, THEEEEEE UUUUUNDERTAKERRRR"

Welcome to the playoffs, b****!

I couldn't watch a pitch of this game due to work. I'm happy as hell they got the W. Do it again tomorrow despite the fact that I won't be able to watch again

Who went to high school in NW Indiana

vs LHP's I'd have McCann play C, especially with Giolito pitching. Grandal can sit his ass on the bench. Eloy at DH, McCann at C. Make it happen

Why? So the doofus manager can put Cordero or Rodon in?

Another thing to mention: on Tuesday it'll be cool in Chicago. It'll be 86 in NoCal. Maybe that helps Abreu, Moncada and Robert?

Relax on the Stone stuff. This is their last game announcing together this year. He was just saying he'll miss Benetti. Nothing to see here

Typically I disagree but this final week and a half has been a mess. I actually started speaking to a ticket rep on 9/1 for a 10 or 20 game package, but unless Renteria goes, no thank you.. and I already emailed him that

I read that they're confident that the suspension is a regular season one, so at worst (or in this case AT BEST) he's suspended for the first 2-3 games of next year

Can we not only end the Ricky Renteria experiment but also the Jimmy Cordero experiment? Both guys suck

If you don't mind, what do you do for a living?

Tim Anderson, woof

I'd pick McCann. Hahn and Ricky will take Grandal. Maybe catchers across baseball aren't any good

I've really kind of had it with Grandal. I've tried to let the season play out and I've tried to see the best in these guys considering the weird season, but besides getting pitchers 2-3 extra strikes a game and seeing 4-5 pitches per PA, what does he do well? He's an incredibly aggravating player

Anderson is trying to pull everything. He was at .370 two weeks ago

You know nothing about him evidently and that's fine

It's just maddening that every f***ing year we pick random games where we torch the defense because all we know is good defense and not only expect them to be great but expect them to score and take the ball away at willxx while we completely ignore the fact that the offense is STILL completely inept

We probably would've said the same about Crochet a week ago I don't think a reasonable fan would "ask too much" from Vaughn. He quite literally can't be worse than what they've gotten from RF this year, although Mazara's been a tad better as of late

The rain isn't supposed to start until later today, around 7 or 8 pm
