DoUEvenShift Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) yellow / orange DET @ CHW A grouping of storms around Chicago pregame will slowly clear, but a few more downpours could pop in its wake. I think they manage to play ball here, though the specifics of that are still tbd. A delay or a late start is certainly on the table, and there's some fathomable worst-case scenario with multiple storms over the ballpark that keeps them from playing tonight. Still, I think they manage to play ball through a few nearby downpours, and will keep a close watch on radar leading up to the game to try to time out any @KevinRoth Edited August 12 by DoUEvenShift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snopek Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I don't hate the lineup. Benintendi the only uninteresting AB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I'd still rather see Vargas get most of his PT at 3B but overall, pretty solid lineup to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxBlanco Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Looks like the best lineup of the entire season (from an offensive perspective). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) I bet they have a DH tomorrow Edit: eh, maybe not. Doesn't look like the rain will stay as long as I originally thought. Edited August 12 by Ducksnort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I must be getting old as I'm sorta sick of summer for the first time in my life. Hot as balls here. Supposed to get some cool rain tmr, sounds good. Sounds like it's been rollercoaster in Chicago, lotta rain, lotta heat, the usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t move to Florida, it’s hot from early May to early October, we never turn the AC off during that period and sometimes it’s longer but I’m out there playing golf and bike riding, heat index today was only 101.

Erin is out in the Atlantic quite a way and is expected to jog to the north over the weekend. Edited August 12 by The Mighty Mite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Exactly why I can't fucking stand John. Notes he had some "latin fire" on his playlist pregame AND DOESN'T NAME A SINGLE BAND. Dude, WTF are you doing? It's a sputtering AI of a play by play guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 That's a nasty breaking ball! Good inning bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Gomez looking good the first inning. Unfortunately we already have Martin Burke Cannon with pretty much the same stuff. Burke at least has the off speed pure stuff to get more swings and misses when he's right, along with Shane Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
