Dallas Kuechel vs. Luis Patino. Hopefully Dallas brought his good pitches to Tampa and we win the series today. LFG!!!

DK with seven scoreless against St Pete on June 15. Bills- Bears are playing at the same time and Trubisky will get some action in his return. 

@maloney.adamYou are hereby forgiven. 

Sox with the advantage today. Should be a win. 

Has there been any update on when Leury comes back from concussion?  With Grandal supposedly coming back Monday, just trying to figure roster construction prior to September 1.  Thoughts ? 

Leury will replace Mendick

Grandal will replace Zavala or Collins (my guess is Zavala)

Rodon will replace Wright

Engel will replace Burr

Hamilton will get added as one of the extra September players

One of Wright, Lambert, Burr gets added as the other extra September player

At some point, I think Lamb gets DFA and Sheets called up.

ugh why does today have to be a noon start? I will be out all day. I guess this game thread will be a more positive experience without me

 

Anderson just had a damn day off, what is going on? Give Hernandez a day off not Tim

 

Um...why is TA off again? And yet Hernandez still hasn't had a single day off? Goodness.

Yeah, ok TLR. So then explain why your second baseman hasn't had a day off in a month?

Tony is worried about playing 7 straight on turf, so Anderson plays one game and sits and has 5 more to go? So should we expect him to get yet another day off in a few days?

The Sunday lineup of Saturday.

Tony just stop thinking please.

Brutal lineup. If they had won today and ran out a garbage Sunday lineup tomorrow, I’d understand. But this sucks and feels like punting the series.

lol...ya makes a lot of sense!

 

No Robert or Anderson...the 2 best hitters last night. I guess we're just ok with taking 1 against the Rays?

Anderson hasn't had a day off since Thursday, he's gotta get another breather. Two baseball games in a row is really hard on the body.

Anderson sat on Thursday because of "so many straight games coming up on turf" just to sit 2 games later

So with a Sunday lineup today do we get a Sunday lineup on Sunday as well?

Just now, Look at Ray Ray Run said:

I sort of understand since it's a quick turnaround. It just sucks cause I don't think we've won without TA in the lineup for a while. We've lost all of these games Tony has punted recently. If anyone really needs a day off, it's the 2 guys he put in the first 2 spots of the lineup today. Goodwin looked like he couldn't put a ball in play yesterday if his life depended on it. 

DK pitching means the Sox need their strongest defense behind them so they have Goodwin and Lamb in the OF and sit Timmy again lol

It would even make more sense if it was a rookie and not a seasoned vet like Tim. I get the rest and how important his health is but still pretty sure Tim feels good to go today and expected to.
