  1. I lived in Wrigleyville shortly after graduating from college. It can be a fun place to drink, but i advise staying off the beaten path. Avoid the Cubby Bear, Sluggers, Deuces, etc. I was always a fan of Murphy's Bleachers and The Sports Corner. Murphy's is a divey-er bar that isn't AS infested with jabronis, but it still gets packed. Regardless, most places right by the field are packed on game day. Keep in mind, i have no idea how it is during quarantine. i imagine it is even harder to get into a bar. I highly doubt you'll get a seat at a place within viewing distance of the field. Try The Sports Corner i guess. if that is packed, go pound some malort at the Nisei Lounge.
  2. I'm just trying to stay optimistic about Elijah Tatis. Let's hope he breaks out too.
  3. Is he going to put on a suit that is too small and perform Chris Farley's "Fat guy in a little coat" routine? Yermin isn't coming up here to be a class clown or mascot. He'll be coming up here to absolutely mash MLB pitching. He will be our DH of the future.
  4. These umpires have been SO FUCKING AWFUL
  5. I do like the 3 inning rule. Honestly, I'd be fine with 8 inning games. They need to do something to speed this shit up. Robotic umps is my #1 request. People see how difficult it is to call a game for umpires. Calling balls and strikes isn't easy. It really bugs me when a pitcher misses his spot but throws a clear strike, but it isn't called a strike because the catcher was set up on the other side of the plate. It happens so damn often. There needs to be more consistency.
  6. Imagine if Engel finally figured it out. That would be perfect for this team. He'll keeping getting playtime when a lefty pitches I assume. Hope he keeps it up.
  7. Season 4 was my favorite of the whole series. A group of kids carry the season and do an incredible job. I loved that season so much.
  8. Season 4 was so incredible. I just started the show a year ago. Stopped midway through season 5. I love the show, but 5 wasn't doing it for me. 1-4 is some of the greatest television ever.
  9. I have confidence the Sox can hit Hand. Sucks he'll probably get pulled now
  10. This zone is fucking ass. Robert getting completely cucked by the umpire
  11. Maybe you were the one hating on McCann, and youre just blaming me to divert attention and rewrite the narrative
  12. No, I wasn't. I've never had in issue with McCann. You are mistaken Old Ron
  13. Grandal was signed to a big deal because he is a great hitter and great pitch framer. The pitch framing is one of his highest selling points. After today's game, he will have caught 9 of the 16 white sox games, or a little over half. Is this too few? You signed him to provide the great pitch framing. Anybody else think he needs to catch more often to maximize his value?
