Ditto...Cub friend of ours is in from out of town and bought tickets. My lovely wife bought me new Sox gear for Fathers Day to rock at the game. I love it when someone out of the blue becomes a Sox hero at Wrigley...so I'm looking for Cordell or Tilson to have a big day!!! And please keep us close Nova so we can get to that Cubbie bullpen.

Any series where Giolito is pitching is about as good of a matchup as you can hope for, considering our other starters. I don’t even care who starts for the other team.

Jack Parkman Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) Holding the Cubs to single digits would be an accomplishment tonight with Nova on the mound. I think a split is fairly likely, unless Giolito has a bad game. Hard to see a way that the Sox win tonight. It's hard to see them beating any good team on nights when Giolito isn't starting. The dregs of the AL, well that is a different story. Edited June 18, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all of the pitchers in the Sox rotation currently, Giolito is the only one with an ERA south of 6.25 Lopez-6.31 Nova-6.28 Banuelos-6.90 Despaigne-8.71 How can you not expect a 7-8 spot at the very least when these guys are pitching?

Chisox378 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Looking at Hamels career numbers, they are very good, in my opinion just outside the Hall of Fame, so how do we attack him tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisox378 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Why Banuelos is still pitching in ML team is confusing. Id rather try the 33 year old Ross Detwiler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova has given up 1 run as many times as he’s given up more than 5. He holds teams <= 4 most of the time. I’m not saying he doesn’t suck, he does, but he’s not getting his tits blown off every single time he takes the mound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mqr Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) I would say I would like to see the Cubs cease to exist, but then I would have to sit next to some Winnekta dudebro and listen to him talk about how scary Bridgeport is at Sox games. So I guess they aren't all bad. Edited June 18, 2019 by mqr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
