5/19 sox (Danks) @ Cubs (Dempster) FOX 6:15 PM

[ctcf]

I figured I'd spot start this as it was already game day. Hopefully everyone is getting this on FOX. I will sadly be left with Boston/Philly. Joy.

 

Cubs have been slumping a bit, but hopefully they can put the Sox in the DUMPSTER today.

 

I would like to note that despite this recent slide, it's weird how constantly intriguing this team has been for me this year. Has that been the case for anyone else as well? If they can pawn Sori off on someone and keep LaHair and Rizzo in the same lineup, I'll be all in.

 

 

 

El Duderino will get his turn on Sunday, win lose or draw today.

probably should take "WGN" out of the title

[mul21]

When did they start allowing weekend night games?

[Little Slide Rooter]

In the past, John Danks has had his way with us to the tune of 2.88 ERA 6/24 BB/K 1.086 WHIP, but of the current team, he only really has a history against Soriano (.250/.400/.375 in 8 AB) and DeJesus (.348/.400/.435 in 23 AB). Also Soto (.200/.200/.200 in 10 AB) but I'm pretty sure he's on the DL by now.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Any word on whether Wood will be throwing out the first pitch, singing the 7th inning stretch, or anything of the sort?

[El Duderino]

I could have sworn I was on-deck. My bad.

[dew1679666265]

I get Os/Nats instead......

 

At least it's more interesting than Boston/Philly.

[davell]

Koyie Hill. Nothing else to say.

Yea that should be a pretty good game, actually.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Koyie Hill. Nothing else to say.

 

And Randy Wells. John Grabow can't be too far behind.

Is that really an MLB lineup?

[haubrich91]

I'm kind of excited for this game, don't ask me why.

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm kind of excited for this game, don't ask me why.

 

Night game on FOX... feels like the World Series

[Sosa21MVP]

Koyie Hill? What? :shock:

My excitement is plummeting.

[davell]

Sveum said Hill will get most of the starts until the others get back. I'm sure Lalli gets sent down as soon as one of the others gets back, then Koyie gets DFA'd as soon as we get two of them ready to go.

I guess I forgot to email this to Dale Sveum this morning. My bad.

[Schwarber Fan]

so... we getting a base runner tonight?

[davell]

This has to be the worst lineup we've thrown out all year. That said Demp has his best bud catching for him, like he probably wanted, so he deserves the offense that comes with it.

[haubrich91]

Ugh.
