Been a while since I created a game thread.

Jake Odorizzi (2-2, 3.94) vs. Reynaldo Lopez (0-2, 1.78)

Let's hope the offense shows up to support Lopez.

What's funny about this is they are playing the Twins...and it's supposed to rain all night tonight in Chicago. Like 80% chance starting at 7pm. Are these teams ever gonna play each other again?? Maybe double header tomorrow or Saturday.

Will they be able to get this game in? the radar doesn't look too positive.

I hope this gets called. Moncada could use the day off

I shudder when thinking of the lineup tonight without Yoan. I also hope it is postponed.

Yolmer at 2B with Davidson at 3B? Palka or Delmonico DH?

That was what people said in the thread on the day Abreu sat out, then it turned out Davidson was playing against the Royals and you know how that ended.

Except we all know the Sox record against every team not named Royals. We also know the Sox don't hit very well and have bad home record so far. The Sox also haven't showed any ability to win games late but are pretty good at losing them late. Only hope is the Twins starting pitching has been bad and bullpen probably worse.  I have no idea why I'm even saying what the Sox are bad at . Pretty bad at everything so far.

 

Hope the game gets rained out.

If it gets rained out would there be a DH on Saturday? Would probably be better to get the game in, that way Moncada gets an actual day off without having to double up on Saturday.

I want my Melton shirt.

Too bad Yoan's out.  At least with Lopez pitching there is a reason to tune in.

This is fair. Although if he felt better saturday I don't think 2 games would be too tough on him. Sox must feel confident they can get this game in though because they haven't hinted at anything otherwise.

Not playing could be a moral victory for both squads. 

Forecast looks *slightly* better. Rain delays still likely 

 

Great, Lopez just lost 5-6 calls.

lets try to get a win guys

Kevan Smith was pulled from the Charlotte game. Castillo DL trip upcoming?

Puke.  Narvaez as the everyday catcher is not going to help this pitching staff.

I swear this team is plagued. Why has there been so many injuries the last 2 seasons? Very disconcerting.

Because the White Sox were unbelievably, ridiculously healthy the few years before this and now they're having a normal amount of injuries, but it seems huge by comparison.

Probs just bad gas. Tell dude to lay off the pregame pizza!!

Upper deck closed. Maybe 5k in the house. Rain starts as Sox take the field
