I am convinced that Houston secretly injected Avery with a flu virus three days ago so he became ill. That is the Astros way. Seriously though, I want this game more than any other in recent memory. Much more than any of the Oakland games last October.

We really need Eloy to start seeing the ball too.

This particular series will in large part come down to Gio, Cease, Rodon, Kopech, Kimbrel, Hendricks, and our defense. Being that Houson has Lynn’s number - we really need the rest of the key players holding the ball to man up and preform to their highest level.

Yea seemed long but unfortunately I had to deal with an unruly client and site launch that occurred today while there… so couldn’t just relax and enjoy the company / game freely. ?‍♂️

Being that I was absent from the board today… was this thread a complete shit show as I expect it was?

Yes Sir.

I’m still convinced you and @CaliSoxFanViaSWside are the same person. ? Fun time today. Bad game. Not surprised. Go get em tomorrow.

You’re doing the work of a Saint.

Well that’s dumb ?

We’re doomed.

Fangraphs writers polled playoff odds: White Sox most popular choice to win ALCS by nearly two times as many votes as the second finisher…. Tied with the Dodgers as WS winner. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/heres-whos-going-to-maybe-win-the-2021-world-series/

The 2026 Cuba White Sox are comin for you.

Potential breakout players for October, as listed on mlb.com by each respective team’s beat writer: WHITE SOX: OF/DH Gavin Sheets It’s tough to include someone such as Luis Robert, Eloy Jiménez or Yoán Moncada in this group because they’ve already established themselves as premium frontline Major League talent. So the nod goes to Sheets, who figures to get playing time at the very least against right-handed pitching in the postseason. Sheets worked diligently to take this next step forward during this past offseason after not being invited to the team’s alternate site training facility in ’20, and he posted 11 home runs, eight doubles, 34 RBIs and an .830 OPS in 54 games with the White Sox. He’s a true left-handed power bat, which the White Sox otherwise don’t really have, and he hit .268/.344/.556 against right-handed hurlers with all 11 of his homers in 160 plate appearances. -- Scott Merkin

2021 AL Postseason: Who will preform the best. That’s all it comes down to since there’s not a clear cut monster in the bunch. Should be a fun fall baseball season. Whoohoo!

More difficult round 1 opponent than last year while having a better team going into battle.

Kudos to the Giants. I’m rooting for them in the NL.

Don’t stop… get it.

Well, I see that went well.

Amen, brother.

Soxtalk never fails to produce some sort of complaint. ?

Poop.

Mashed potatoes.
