ChiSox59 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 LFG! Give me: Timmy, Moncada, Abreu, Eloy DH, Grandal, Robert, Engel, Leury LF, Madrigal That is our best lineup right now. I am guessing we'll see Engel in LF and Mazara in RF tho, which I guess is OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksnort Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Question: What's the rule for extra innings in the playoffs? Are they still doing the stupid runner at 2nd bullshit? Or is it back to normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 If Eloy is good, I'd have him DH with the same outfield as yesterday. If he isn't, I would actually keep the same outfield but DH Mazara. I would not mess with that outfield at the Coliseum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I have a feeling this is going to be a 2-1, 1-0 type game. Two great bullpens, and I think Bassitt gives us trouble. But I think Keuchel will do same to As. 1 more win, get us to an ALDS, that would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't talk about the game, they just tell pointless stories about the players that go on 5x too long... I wish you had options for different broadcasters or turning off the broadcast, kind of like you can with video games lolll.. Jessica Medoza needs to gooooooo LOL She was a million times better than the guy that was broadcasting with her. He was an absolute joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superchops70 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I can’t figure out why the road team in these series can’t be the home team in game two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GermanSoxFan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I am feeling incredibly confident in the Sox ability to win today. Keuchel will do his thing and limit them to two runs over six or seven and we will hit three or four bombs to take an early lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know people are saying Mazara's defensive metrics are fine, but we need speed to track down any balls that get out there. We need speed to get to foul balls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he worked Abreu and Anderson away, they went to it, instead of trying to pull it. When they got in a fastball count, they turned and burned. Need to do the same against Bassitt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassit will be tough on our guys, but good lineup construction should help. If Eloy is out, Grandal needs to bat behind Jose so that we don't get pitch around. Tim and Yoan are good enough for Jose to drive in. McCann nor Mazara are giving Jose much protection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Bassitt has one good month under his belt and he talks and carries himself like a proven ace. I hope the White Sox wreck him. He is going to be amped up and overconfident. Book it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 This As cast is really good. Benetti on now; Hawk later. Bennetti seemed like he wanted to do this and offered it to stone the final game of the year and got turned down live but I wish they did do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like to get some speed guys on base. Look to steal and hit and run. In close games need to get on, get over and get in. Wouldnt surprise me at all to see a sac bunt on either side today. Speed and defense wins pitchers duels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you can be the home team at the visitors park similar to what the Cards were at Wrigley when they played all of their "home" games there. Even easier with no fans.
