Robert in the 3 spot? Well shit.

He's been hitting everything. He's going deep today. Like, "where will it land" deep.

My point was if he was anywhere near 100%, why would you wait to use him in a game that might not have been played?  Dumb coaching or not, there is no reason to think he is going to be throwing 95-100.

He could be 100% right now and be done 1 batter into the game.  There will always be a higher risk rate on him whenever he takes the mound.

If he was not progressing why not go Lynn at home on normal rest?

Still waiting on my Tim Anderson bat flip to the moon vs the trashtros. Need it more than I need oxygen.

Even the almighty TLR?

He's probably got 50 pitches in him, 75 at the absolute top end.  He just hasn't been throwing enough recently to go deep.

Extra base hits this series 

Grandal

Vaughn

L Garcia x2

Law of averages says this has to change, please change today.

Fan Duel has TA to homer + a Sox win at +850.  Very tempting.

Truth. Aside from pining for a White Sox winner - I’m residing in fantasy land of a 17 to 0 score.

Should be a decent breeze blowing from right to left today. Hit one about 360 to left center, and watch it land in the bullpen.

McCullers last time he pitched at the Rate (July 16th): 7 IP, 1 ER, 10ks

Notables from that game:

- Goodwin 0-4 with 4ks

- Robert, Jimenez, Grandal not in the lineup

I dont think jimenez scares McCullers. Robert sure. Grandal loves those back foot sliders, not too worried there.

Tampa Bay screwed up in letting Morton go. He wanted to stay with them and was willing to edge his contact perks and angles to make deal work. As often as TB front office gets things right - on this one they blew it.

Fun enough Morton wife wanted to come back to Houston both chances they had. But Astros were unwillingly to pay. TB really need to add 2/3 established starters to solidify them.

I hope he doesn't scare McCullers because when he is right, he is one of the best power hitters in baseball. Hang something to him and get him going.

LFG...I'm off to Comiskey. Hope for nothing but good stuff

OK besides your very well thought out 17-0 prediction. What does your head say?

Every AL Central team has lit Mccullers up this season except the Sox. It's time.

Its funny because its true. But also funny because every team use video and communication to relay pitches. EVERYONE. 

 

Lets talk about the White Sox Home and Road batting splits? Or does that not count? Besides I see major differences unlike the Astros splits away/home.
