Absurd there's no lineup yet

A little gamesmanship perhaps 

No lineup is good. That means they are still waiting to see how Eloy is doing. It beats him being out for certain.

WTF is going on, seriously?  It's gotta be Eloy-related, right?  I mean it's practically gametime

Guys this is the biggest Sox game in over a decade. A win here and we advance to the ALDS where we should have a clear advantage. A loss here and this board erupts in Fire Ricky posts.

Sentence one: Agreed

Sentence two: Think it’s a toss up like this one.

Sentence three: That’s about 90% of the content I’ve read here since joining.

It’s 12:57, patient as possible waiting for the lineup.

They are debating if they should play Dyson, EE, Collins and Yolmer. ?

Or they want the game as prime time....

I think you are correct. They probably are afraid every series can be over today, so they saw one where they could try to make some sort of case for cancelling. I live 3 miles south of Wrigley Field. It is sunny right now.

I am glad no lineup yet.. Our guys know who is playing and who isn't.. Just giving Fiers less time to study (if he does)

Eh, the radar isn't so bad that straight up cancelling makes sense.  Hmmm...

The Cubs don't have the talents of the Sodfather on their side.

Yes they do. He did the field at Wrigley a decade or so ago too. They found the old goalposts from when that was a part-time football stadium literally buried in the ground.

It drizzled for 5 seconds when I was out a few minutes ago. Pretty sure that no one can play in that type of monsoon.

Legggggggooooooooooooooooooo

Actually, pretty sure he worked on their field when they redid it a few years back. 

The forecast calls for 60% of COVID today at Wrigley Field.

Was that actually a decade ago already?  Holy shit time flies....

I agree, this makes the most sense.  

Funny thing is, I would have no problem if baseball just came out and said they were pushing the game back a day to spread them out more and allow more people to see more games.  It's crazy that they tried to pack up to 24 playoff games in four days followed by three straight off days to begin with.

Please at least be DHing.

Let im DH.. If he gets on base, run for him and then bring McCann as his sub.

If he could play LF that would be HUGE! Leave Engel in RF and McCann at DH

All I can say is its so exciting to finally have a reason to be excited! Meaningful, do or die, playoff baseball for the Sox, it just doesn't get any better than this!

I'd rather he DH in a winner-take-all in Oakland against a righty.
