Well every time I listen to a day game while at work, the barn doors get blown out.  Maybe if I start a game thread, this will not happen.  
 

probably not

 

anyhow, Kopech vs Quintana.  12:10

Was kinda sad I didn't get to see Quintana last night.

Then got more sad when Verlander was good.

Yea but Verlander took the money and the team blows.  I actually love that lol

Kopech needs to step it up today and give us 6 solid innings.

You have to hope for the best but expect the worst.

I blame last night's loss on the Mod's using the 2nd thread starters title when merging.  Definite jinx.

Remember when the return of Eloy was met with great anticipation? Now I don't think I really care.

What will be greater today, Kopech innings pitched or Kopech walks allowed

Eloy more or less tries to play and be productive. A couple of other IF's aren't really helping much and may wish to move on. You have to distinguish these things and themes.

I blame that on the site for sitting on their hands when there is game thread work that needs to be done.   

I will be at this game.  I will try to send positive vibes to Eloy’s groin.

Hope has been pretty much dashed for me . I just expect the worst now.

I hope both starters go 5 with fewer than 3 runs. Always liked Q.

Probably next week.  Grifol said yesterday he needs 3-5 more games.  

Tim Anderson is kicking ass post ASB. EOM.

Well at least we got 1 out of that. Great to see Anderson start to heat up.

Who gives a f***?

Why Perez can't be taking ABs over stiffs like Grandal and Zavala is so White Sox.   They're not going anywhere, Grandal is as good as burned toast at this point, just like Elvis Andrus.
