It's a Dick Allen bobblehead day, which is pretty cool. Go Sox.

Benintendi Robert Taylor and Thaiss should all be in the lineup.

Going with 28-32000 attendance unless the weather is really bad again...day game though.

Looks like 47-50 degrees, partly sunny with 10 degree winds for this one.

Should be a good crowd

At least 30K if the weather is decent.

I hope Altuve and Alvarez stay asleep  .They are usually Sox killers.

Sun will be out but it’s gonna be chilly af in that stadium today

Think the bobblehead will have the cigarette hanging from his mouth? 😂

I hope so. First game in Chicago in 6 years for me. The wife and I attend a road game every year. That way JR doesn't get our cash.

This was too much for me to resist. DA was my idol as a kid, and he still is.

I wish I could get one. Have fun !

Sox haven't had much luck in the ace-avoidance category.  Hunter Brown today, Crochet twice in our 7 games with the RedSox, e.g.

Astros are still good, but they've lost a lot of their firepower.  Can see why they were trying to move Valdez - he's still good, but not great.

Brooks in center is wild but the vibes are good so let's get weird.

I think they look a lot better in game/on players than they did in the marketing video and pics.

I find them audaciously ugly, like the '77 collared tops, or the 83 softball unis.

He played there in the minors some. I’d say, he can survive out there, but I wouldn’t say he’s a center fielder. This is where maybe Fletcher > Palacios

Wait are you saying Baldwin is in CF ? Robert better be DHing if true.

Palacios batting fifth behind Robert proves once and for all "lineup protection" is irrelevant.

He is DHing, no Quero today, though.

A.Judge .434, MLB AvG .241

11th homer today, second to Cal Raleigh

Let's fucking GO;

Why no Quero cmon will

Ugh Palacios.....

Gotta make these plays guys

Sosa more questionable decision-making.

Pena really hustling.

Martin up to 96 in the first.

93-95 more common for him.

CH best pitch   90-91 unusual speed differential, gets him with the slider.

Meidroth on a 7/15 streak
