As long as TLR is the manager, probably very good odds. Why wouldn't TLR sit Vaughn when he can start .143 Jake Lamb or sit Madrigal to start .200 Garcia. 

Strategy against the right-handed pitcher!

Mendick up for Robert

Edited May 4, 20214 yr by WhiteSoxFan1993

Mendick deserves to stay on the team for good. He is a nice little player that shouldn’t be the 27th man.

Jose has Eloy's batting gloves, I think he should also dye his hair blonde for Luis. 

Why not? He’s been wearing rubber bands in his beard ever since Capt. Lou died

Oh you mean like last game vs the Indians where Lamb went 0-3 with 3 K's against all right hander pitchers that game? Vaughn couldn't do any worse?

Only 10 day IL for Robert?

You do realize I was joking right?

I'm sure he will be moved to the 60 the second they need to add someone to the 40-man.

Good call, thought he was just a big fan of Will Smith's version of the Genie.

I don't know why, but they tend to wait until they need the roster spot before moving someone to the  60 day.

Maybe Cease will be like, a really good batter.

Just don’t get hurt running. Bad week for major leaguers with uniform numbers in the 80s.

Or just his little goatee thing maybe?

Leury playing CF gives me Mackowiak flashbacks.  

Rick flew out to Cincinnati, by the looks of the lineup card, he may have written it.

 

 

Lose Robert, call up Mendick. We have four viable OF with Eaton looking kinda gimpy. Can Mendick play the OF or is there a master plan to put Mercedes in the OF?

Considering what we’re dealing with, I like it... for now.

Exactly how I'd line it up with current guys with Yermin after Abreu in a DH lineup.

Jake Lamb has become one of Tony's favorites. Eaton, Garcia, Lamb, Vaughn, and Hamilton are the current five.

Mercedes is in the doghouse, hopefully he gets to play in KC. He should play catcher occassionally, has a good arm and isn't any worse than Grandal at actually catching the ball.

Tony hasn't played Mendick much when he has been on the team. Tony prefers Garcia and Lamb for IF backup, when they are not playing OF,

Radar looks to be clearing up. Calling for a few spotty showers around game time, but it looks like we’re getting baseball today!

Futurecast here looks pretty good 

Vaughn in LF, Garcia in CF, Madrigal batting 2nd

Agreed. I feared Tony being Tony with Lamb in LF and/or other shenanigan's. 

Id switch Eaton and Grandal but it probably wont matter too much
