Tank Battle!

 

Two hours until first pitch. I wanna hear Hahn tap dance around Jimenez questions.

Will this game be played? Raining pretty steady here in the SW of the city 

In the north side of the city it is absolutely beautiful (I'm near/at Wrigley field). 

Anyone know when this pre-game conference with Hahn is and how to watch it?

If he meets with the writers before the game, I'm sure the NBCSC pregame will have video. The regular beat writers haven't mentioned when Hahn will talk. My understanding was it was going to be before today's game, but maybe it got pushed back until after in the conference room.

Anyone check Mr. Radar? Ew. 

Nicky hr first pitch of the game

Sox have been getting a lot of 1st inning runs lately.

Raining hard here on the west side now

Damn that was a great catch by Engel, he just couldn't hold on after he rolled over.

Big K there of Candelario

Dont think that hit him...

Lopez is wayy too ****** slow. It does not help.

nice changeup to Castellanos  too bad it wasn't called a strike .

Lopez has a bit of Bartolo in him. He changes off of his fastball and usually has that extra few mph when it is time for a big pitch. 

Where the fuck has this Reynaldo Lopez been the rest of the season?? I really like this guy. If Lopez can pitch like this the sky's the limit for this rotation next season. Find a decent, flippable vet for the 5th  starter role in case they can't hang with the Indians and Let's go boys!!!

This is why I’ve been whining about Lopez being a two pitch pitcher most of the year.  When he has the complete arsenal (change & curve included) working he can be damn good and the fastball becomes a legit weapon.  Reynaldo & Giolito suddenly look like legit major leagues and that would greatly accelerate this rebuild.

Ha you know where he's been. It's called being 24 , in your 1st big league full season and developing.

I know. As long as this guy shows up in 2019 I'm fine with everything. Same with Giolito. If the guy we saw Thursday shows up next week they're going to give the Indians a scare next season, at the very least. 

Wow, that shot of the sky. 

 

That is just shortstop porn.

Wow Anderson's defense there was spectacular.

Nice play!
