ALDS Game 1: White Sox at Guardians. Saturday, 12:00 PM

Featured Replies

One strategy against an opponent with key offensive players is to try to limit their impact or as some say, don't let them beat you. The White Sox were successful in limiting Yordan Alvarez (1 for 7) in the Houston series. Likewise PCA went 0-7 against the Padres. Sox have to limit damage from Rocchio in the Cleveland series. I am sure the Sox pitching staff is focusing in on that player in particular.

  • This is no longer a "magical" season and whatever happens, we're good. I want blood this series. I want to beat the hell out of Cleveland. f*** those guys. Crush'em.

    In hindsight it wasn't so bad losing the division and getting the Wild Card series. It got the Sox engines revved up and gave them confidence.

You think Will benches Braden or Peters against the lefty? He better not take Sam out of the lineup.

You get better in LF with Grichuk instead of Sam as well. It's a pretty easy decision imo. Sam will get his chance as a PH. If he was better in LF maybe you consider it, but Grichuk gives us a boost there in a pretty large LF in Clev.

Sure wish he hadn't said that...too late now. How did that work out for Pedro Grifol?

That wasn't beer being poured down Grifol's pants.

Strangely, LHB actually do almost 100 points of OPS better than RHB against Messick in his career splits.

Saturday will also be a full week since Hudson pitched. Hopefully a week off gives him the rest he needs to get back on track.

While Hudson was very important in the regular season, I think he's last resort of the playoffs. Just a lack of stuff.
For game 2, it's got to be Burke.
Leery on Martin as he spit the bit against Colorado on Saturday.

I’d rather see Sandlin before Kay.

I'm totally leery on Martin right now too, as we have little margin for error in a 5 game series.

We're going to need him if we get to the ALCS, though. So if we didn't use him until G3 or G4 in the ALDS, would he do a sim game/sidework friday or saturday? 9-10 days off feels like an eternity.

Does anybody know which app I need to subscribe to in order to watch this round 🙄
