ScootsMcGoots Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Chris Volstad (first start of the season) vs Marco Gonzalez (LHP) Volstad's first start, has allowed 4 runs in 4 relief appearances so far this year Gonzalez (5.94 ERA) has only thrown 10 and 1/3 innings over 3 starts so far, although he has struck out 17 batters. Ricky lines em up against the lefty as follows: Timmy SS Yolmer 3B Pito 1B Beef C Matty D DH Moncada 2B Thompson RF Leury LF Engel CF I'm looking for some homers today against a lefty with such a high ERA and minimal innings pitched in 3 outings. Potentially big day for the top 5 in the lineup. More importantly, let's see if Moncada can continue off his monstrous game last night, especially as he will be hitting from his "weaker" side of the plate. Enjoy the game everyone!! Let's get a win streak going! Edited April 24, 2018 by Scoots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Is there a reason for the early start on a non-getaway day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTruth05 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Volstad looked solid his last couple of outings, hoping he has a good 5 innings in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Yeah, very weird starting time... ... Anyway, I got to pick one of Tim Anderson or Yoan Moncada for my fantasy line up tonight... Timmy is batting first while Moncada is batting 6th leads me to beleive that the manager has more faith in Timmy against the lefty... so I'm going Timmy.

One of the benefits of the Mariners and Sox sucking so hard lately is that usually I can sit behind the Sox dugout at Safeco for about $50. I think two years ago I got 3rd row behind the dugout for like $35 + stubhub fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Don't like today's lineup one bit. Bet the house on the M's and the over in a parlay. Only way we win? Moncada would have to single-handedly carry the team today and somehow we outslug them say, 11-9. Frankly I see 9 as a very low number for the opponent considering who we are starting and what we've got behind him.

No. Even those "experts" in Vegas don't refund money. Those guys who have the 7 a.m. fake talk show infomercials on sports radio on Sat and sunday mornings. They charge huge bucks and if they are wrong they are wrong. Too bad. But I have a feel for the White Sox and am offering free of charge w/no guarantees. If you win you could always forward me 40 percent. Thank u kindly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 So the Mariners gift you by not taking out the lead runner and you gift them back by randomly taking off because the trailer gets occupied. Thats something you see in youth baseball not something you should see in the pro's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
