Kopech giving him 34?

I'll never forget October 7, 1984.

Early afternoon Walter Payton becomes the NFL All Time Leading Rusher.

Late afternoon, Ryan Sandberg spills Gatorade on Leon Durham's glove, the rest is history.

Once a Cub, always a Cub

He was referring to Colas being promoted to AAA, not the MLB.

Actually want him promoted to AAA now and the Sox Sept. 15th if the Sox are still in the hunt.

Can't wait for Kelly to open the game by walking the bases loaded. 

At least now we have another guy in Payton, who will sit on the bench for 3 days then get sent back down.

Joe Kelly miracle worker.

Is Mark Payton  the 2022 version of play some fucking Journey? 

Better than Rutherford or Dedelow. New blood. 

Davis Martin coming out of the pen then?

I have to think if they went to the trouble to add him to the 40 that he will stay and Haseley will go down when Robert is back.

Sensible organizations would do that. We're the Chicago White Sox.

Would love to see Colas after the next injury.

Does maternity leave and Eloy's latest ouchie count ? We got Payton, Haseley and Engel to back up Sheets , Vaughn, Pollock, Leury. Colas might be the only one who actually is a good hitter and a good fielder among those 7 guys. Of course some are AAA , some AAAA and MLB guys and Colas is a 167 PA  AA guy so we don't know who he can actually out hit at this point . But I'd be willing to try since he would be facing mostly RHP and he can actually hit LHP too.

 

Cleveland is falling apart, with their scheduled starter today (Plesac) fracturing his hand between starts, and Civale also placed on the IL today and likely out the season with forearm “inflammation”.

Tony LaRussa celebrating in the hospital late October is now at 1% likelihood.

New manager same bullshit.

Miguel stated earlier this week he will be in daily contact with Tony regarding lineup construction. So even if all 26 Guardians are out the season, the Sox will still have to get past Minnesota using Tony La Russa’s lineups.

So they have two left handed hitting OF's on the bench and they go with.......Leury

How bad could either be?

Jokes aside, Payton earned it

Manager Terry Francona tells reporters that the team believes Plesac suffered the fracture in his last start, when he punched the ground in frustration after surrendering a home run to Jake Lamb (Twitter link via Mandy Bell of MLB.com).

That’s the second time in his career that Plesac has sustained an injury while expressing frustration. He broke his right thumb last May when “aggressively” tearing off his shirt following a poor outing against the Twins. 

 

Thank you Jake!!!

Tony La Russa playing 4D chess, priming Jake Lamb for meaningful 2022 at bats in 2021.

 

 

Okay. So I've completed the math.

We're fucked.

But did they consider that Kelly usually has trouble throwing strikes?
