Ooof, just watched the game and what an ugly game it was...terrible defense. Could've taken this one, Lynn pitched great but oh well, get back at it tomorrow and take 2/3. 

Lance Lynn saying in the postgame that something about him just fits on the SouthSide.  Damn Right.  Make an offer Rick and keep him for a couple more years please.

Blue collar tough guy type.

I see your point but the Starting pitching is good enough to go deep in the playoffs imo.  Hahn will probably need to find some bullpen arms at the deadline though.

Agree.  Starting pitching is actually great and that is key in the playoffs.  Just got to get the games to Hendriks, bypassing as much as possible the weak links in the bullpen.

Yes indeed.  Bad defense with 4 errors and Bummer being a Bummer did us in tonight.  Too bad about Madrigal.  Hope the Sox have a good conditioning/stretching program in place.  Too many injuries.

Imagine if Abreu also was out for an extended period of time...

He had to be helped off the field and could not put any weight on his leg.  That looked much more serious than “soreness”.

This bullpen and the 8th inning. Just let Lynn throw 150 pitches, dude seems to get bitten like this all of the time.

Should have let Lynn pitch the8th and get the game to Hendriks.

This was an A+ reference. Poor kid was asked to fill in last minute and had a broken teleprompter. Another great thing from 2005.

Why does TLR leave Giolito and Cease out for 108+ but pull Lynn at 95 when he is cruising?

And Lynn is the strongest of them all...

Also a Ricobene's type.

 

Woke up pissed at Grandal's lazy ass

Anderson threw that ball off the wrong foot...you can credit/blame Guerrero for the slide and whether it was legal or not...but Timmy seemed to take an extra step across the bag and into the path of the runner that was unnecessary.  Looked like a routine DP ball all along.

Grandal cost us that 8th inning. Even a below average catcher attempts to block a slider in the dirt that he even called for. So fucking stupid. 2 outs nobody on, bummer gets out of that inning.

He saved their ass the night before on four or five occasions when the game was close in the same situation.

8th innings suck

I very much enjoyed Tuesday's 8th inning...but yes they have been rough for the most part...along with the 10th.
