OmarComing25 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 This game feels like as close to a guaranteed win as you can get in baseball, we can't afford to blow this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why it worries me. Anyone remember Contreras pitching against the Pirates in 06? That might have been the biggest guarantee in baseball history and we lost.

Not disagreeing with that but there's absolutely no guarantees in baseball, we can absolutely lose this game even though it's a mismatch on paper.

I agree with you, and that's why I'm similarly worried about tonight. It seems like every week there's a really lopsided matchup that goes the underdog's way.

Guessing Hanigan will have to start. White Sox should have fun taking extra bases on errant pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 In my MLBTS simulation (wearing the black uniforms, obviously), with attributes changed to reflect current hot streaks, the White Sox won 14-1. Sale allowed 5 hits and struck out 11 in a CG, Melky went 4-5 with 3 doubles and 5 RBIs, and Saladino went 2-4 with a HR and a BB. I'd laugh at all this a couple weeks ago, but it's actually a semi-realistic score with this offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They pretty much have to get it in. We don't go back to Boston and it will be hard to find a date for us to come back. I will go with it will be like the STL game earlier this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I feel like these "scattered rain" games only happen when Sale is the scheduled starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
