Astros positioning has sucked today

How did that get through?

Agree to disagree. He was in a no pressure situation earlier this year and in the offseason the Cubs would have given him away cheap.

I wish I was wrong about it and still hope that he can find his groove for 10 more innings or so.

All good, I just think his collapse has gone well beyond normal regression and it’s super frustrating because Kimbrel should have been a huge postseason weapon for us even if it was as a massive overpay (which it was).

Warm up Ruiz

Harder to make plays when the infield isn't mud.

TIMMAY!!

not too much fun when the hits just keep on coming, is it Houston?

Is Mike Wright available tonight?!?!

C'Mon Luis destroy one.

La Pantera, just blow it up.

This team is just a totally different team at home, I'm positive the Sox would've beaten HOU if they had HFA

This guy just keeps hanging offspeed stuff down the middle and they keep missing it. Come on!

Let’s give Kimbrel a lead that’s unblowable!

Well said (even though if it was the *great* Kimbrel from the Cubs the Sox got, I don’t think the cost was that crazy) 

Good job, White Sox. Get home by 1:30 a.m., sleep til 10, get to park by 11 and bring the bats again. Not that difficult to win another at home then put it all on the line against the cheaters.

AJ and Wainwright are great. I would love for AJ to replace Stoney in the future. Pay him whatever the hell he wants. 

Boy, Raley is rough.

They’ve scored 3 runs on him...

Bring in Wright...I know, I know, not on the roster.

I would save LM up 6 with 2 games next 3 days possibly

How was closing for the Cubs the first three months when they were in contention a no pressure situation?

No one expected anything from them and they were playing with house money. 

Early season is a lot less pressure than a playoff hunt.

It wasn't a sure thing and that's why a lot of people had major concerns.

But I hope he plays lightd out for a lot more games.

Draft picks and players acquired via trade with a long track record are totally the same thing....

a long track record of having success doing something different than how the Sox use him. Basically, Craig Kimbrel usage on the Sox is a proof for the old adage...don't reinvent the wheel. 

Of course they should move tomorrow's game to evening. Otherwise It's gonna get delayed til evening right? Rain?
