Bob Inn on Fullerton & Rockwell is probably your closest real Sox bar - if they are open.

Amazing how the lineup looks so bad without TA when others are struggling. Had to read it a few times to bring myself back from the brink ??

Its really only TA, but still a shock at first?

Sox Park needs more banners. Winning the division and lining things up for the post season are both attainable. Lock up the Central, get guys some rest, and get to the 29th ready to go.

At this point, would you trust him at all? Can't say I would. His body just hasn't been reliable.

2020 Service time x2.8 = 28 days . It's not an issue cuz he is easy to stash in AA/AAA to keep refining/stretching him out.

If he breaks camp with the big club next spring its only 6 cuz he would eclipse a full year in 2021.

Rodon can come off the IL today, Bummer not until the 22nd. I would assume Rodon isn't ready yet and they expect to need Lopez in the rotation to align for the post season. Not many other options, but I kinda like going Crochet as a win now move.

If bars don't serve food, they are supposed to be closed - that's the last I heard. Not sure if that ever really went into effect though/or how well its being enforced.

Toronto, SF, Miami, Cincinnati, and Philly all still have something to play for and all could have a say in AL seeding.

Tampa has 3 @Bal, 3 @NYM, and 3 vs Philly. Oakland has 3 vs SF, 3 @LAD, and 4 vs Seattle. Twins have 3 @Cubs, 2 vs Det, and 3 vs Cincinnati. Yankees have 3 @Bos, 4 @Tor, and 3 vs Miami.

If they go Cease on Sunday it can line up like this with a few tweaks. 9/18 - Stiever 9/19 - Keuchel 9/20 - Cease Cleveland 9/21 - Dunning 9/22 - Lopez 9/23 - Stiever 9/24 - Giolio Cubs 9/25 - Keuchel 9/26 - Dunning 9/27 - Cease 9/28 - off 9/29 - Giolio 9/30 - Keuchel 10/1 - Dunning*

I would say he is in the running, if not a contender. I am hyper-critical of his lineups and his game day decisions, but he has guided this young talent to a playoff berth. Talent makes up for a lot of his mistakes but that's true for any manager. He deserves credit for where they are.

12 long years. The White Sox are going to the playoffs. Let that sink in.

I am in utter disbelief and so very very relieved!
