Engel and Thompson should never be in the same lineup

Looks like rain. 48 degrees. It’s June in less than 2 weeks.

Here in Algonquin it rained pretty hard but I checked the forecast for Chicago and it seemed just cloudy all day.  That being said the forecast will probably change in the next two hours 

Weather aside, our lineup facing a lefty with an ERA over 5 and ReyLo on the mound,I'm predicting we win 6-2 with a Matty D homer or 2. Abreu continues his hot streak.

Stay hot Jose!

A reminder that we have a PTC thread going on : 

Why does Moncada bat so low.. grrr

It's not like we have a whole lot of options.

 

ReyLo with a K at 97 mph

Ugh.  Hawk broadcast.  Can you just fade away already?

Hard-throwing Reynaldo today.

that is one of the nastiest fastballs I've ever seen from a sox starter, sale included.  That ball was tailing at 97mph, unhittable.

Avi out til at least late June

popping the glove 

Another good pitch to get him.   Good job Reynaldo covering as well.

I know exactly which pitch you're talking about and I thought the same thing.

seems like 1/2 the time a guy had a grade 2 or worse hammy he has at least one fairly major setback.  Should just always consider that a 2-3 month injury I guess.

Sucks about Avi. 

how do you get jammed on that?  as a mlb hitter?  Come on TA.  Swing the fucking bat like you mean it.

We'll have a good idea of what Palka is by then, that's for sure.

Minor really moving the ball around effectively. Nobody has been able to get a very clean swing on him.
