Sean Burke vs. Sonny Gray. Going to be a fantastic pitching matchup. Team should be hungry after its ass whipping yesterday. Burke is also from Massachusetts so I’d expect he’ll be amped up pitching in front of friends & family. It’s going to feel like a playoff game tonight.

I flew into Boston last night with the wife & eldest son and will be in attendance. I refuse end the day without a White Sox win.

Let’s fucking go!

Someone needs to slow down the Red Sox a little bit. Why not us?

Happy its not another leftie today.

Since June 1st, Davis Martin has a 6.82 ERA. Removing last night's debacle it's still 5.87. Is Jose Urquidy ready? Need Burke to keep ascending tonight!

I'm thinking that tonight might be our best chance for a win, unless Castillo reverts to past form.

Looks like two good 5 inning starts for Urquidy so far but he’s not striking enough batters out.

Are you excited about Jose Urquidy coming to the White Sox?

Haha not at all, but Martin has been brutal. Woulda been nice to get a league average starter at the TDL.

Yep. We’re undefeated against the Red Sox this year when facing a righty starter.

Agreed.

I looked at Urquidy for possible help at #5 with Noah scuffling, not at #1/2 for Martin.

Burke's Law is on the case.

Nobody wants to come out and say it? Fine, I WILL

IM EXCITED FOR JOSE URQUIDY TO GET MARTINS NEXT START

THERE I SAID IT

Honestly, I think you phantom IL him. Fedde can slide back in.

How about trying an opener for Martin before the IL ? In both the Yankee & Red Sox games he struggled big time in the first inning.

Was having the same thought last night. Hopefully this tipping stuff is the issue, but it's been a trend for months now. Boston is also good, so there's that. If we can hang on to the division I feel like Will is going to be forced to do some opener tricks to start games in the playoffs anyway.

Now that's a thought...

So Martin was tipping? Wouldn't surprise me if Red Sox are cheating.

Apparently Teel picked up on it during the game and was able to start calling Martins pitches before they were released. He told Martin and Bart, and he threw up some 0s.
