8/16 - White Sox (Clevinger) vs Cubs (TBD): 7:05pm, Marquee

[Derwood]

Blue balls offense

[CubinNY]

That should do it

[Irrelevant Dude]

Ugh.

The Cubs got those playoff ticket invoices out just in time.

[chibears55]

I really hate the Whitesox..

Shame, Assad actually pitched a good game,  need some help from the offense,  they keep scratching but not getting the big hits.

Hopefully they can break through the 3rd time through the order and their bullpen,  still early.. Lets Go

If not, they'll definitely get it the 4th time through... or maybe the 5th!

[Andy]

So we're just not gonna score anymore huh

[We Got The Whole 9]

We should have seen the gauntlet of David Peterson, Carlos Carrasco, Touki Toussaint, and Mike Clevenger coming 

[Dfan25]

It’s how baseball works , but still really frustrating . Work so hard to get back into the race only to horsefeathers the bed againts the White Sox and Mets when they really need wins .

[We Got The Whole 9]

Looking like the 5th straight game vs the worst teams in the league where they fail to score 4 runs. Just can't do anything at the plate tonight. 

[Derwood]

When Swanson goes cold, he goes ice cold. It’s astounding how he looks so bad some weeks and so good others. 

[UMFan83]

I knew it. You could just feel the slump coming I have a supernatural feeling for these things.*
 

I didnt watch or follow this one because of my supernatural feeling
 

*that supernatural feeling might just be making pessimistic statements until one is possibly correct

Well, this looks like the inning where all hope is lost for a comeback

Sox seem to always up their game when it comes to the cubs

[Irrelevant Dude]

Between this and the Stroman news, I'm in full "the sky is falling" mode.

[chibears55]

They better sweep the Royals

[Derwood]

Cuas had less than nothing tonight

Against a team that I assume has seen him a lot in the past

[Irrelevant Dude]

Wow, that was something.

[Derwood]

Oh, I see you Michael Fulmer

[chibears55]

Awesome job by Fulmer,  come on bats rally off of that now..

[Derwood]

Nick Madrigal will save us all

[mfcubs22]

Wow Michael Fulmer. Gonna lose the game, but damn impressive 

[Irrelevant Dude]

Who had a Nick Madrigal HR to finally get on the board?

[chibears55]

Here they Go...

Little Nicky gets them on the board 

[Irrelevant Dude]

Why Gomes there?  Wouldn't Amaya have been a better option with how poorly Gomes has been hitting lately?
