I have to think after last night's division clinching winning performance, Lance McCullers becomes a dark horse CY award candidate.

 

If Lance could've gotten his shit together with all the walks he would be the best pitcher in the AL and potentially in the whole MLB

[perfectchaos007 6,636]

So our magic number for the #2 seed is 1?

[Scraps 13,561]

Slammin buds last night = this shit

[tx 3 putt 76,928]

Yes.  Three games to go 1 win needed or 1 white sox loss but the Tigers are running out the dregs of the earth this weekend so likely not going to get any help from LaRussa/Hinch there.

Cruz has hit like he should be on the Astros all series.

Yeah going a whole series without giving up a bomb to him seems like a new strategy for us

Lulz, homered his first AB against the Yankees tonight

Errbody getting rest. I would prefer to hold off on resting guys until we clinch the 2 seed but what do I know 

[Scraps 13,561]

Siri gives zero fucks

that's exactly what you want out of your lead off hitter, wear down the pitcher 

[Guadaloopy 10,964]

Oof.  Alvarez needs a slumpbuster.  

[Mo Horn 8,833]

That was one ugly at bat by Yordan

[Scraps 13,561]

Tucker in RF

I’m good with leaving him off the playoff roster. Would rather carry 3 catchers 

[Guadaloopy 10,964]

Siri hurt or did he run through another sign?

[Gourmand 7,774]

Siri got pulled from the game, most likely for that baserunning decision I'm guessing.

[Scraps 13,561]

Probably fucked up his shoulder or something sliding into Harrison

this 

[UTPhil2006 3,807]

For being a jackass on two separate deals on one play 

[Gourmand 7,774]

He ran through a sign with the way Lopez was pointing at third base after his slide

[WBT 20,564]

Framberlamps is dealing early

[Mo Horn 8,833]

He didn't look hurt the way he was celebrating

[Gourmand 7,774]

Actually I watched the replay again and it looked like he was grimacing as he made a fist with his left right hand

[Mo Horn 8,833]

Wtf Carlos

[Scraps 13,561]

His neck got bent up so it is probably either neck or shoulder.

If he got pulled for going to 3rd thats chickenshit.

[tx 3 putt 76,928]

framber is in the zone, he needs short night 

[Scraps 13,561]

No hitters usually take close to 3 hours sir

I think he jammed his hand on the base sliding into third.

[Scraps 13,561]

I was kind of upset Tucker didn't start anyway since he owns this dork

Chas is single, got wasted had sex.

Yordan is married with kids.

[Guadaloopy 10,964]

30 HR is a nice round number for a season.  Just sayin’, Tucker.

Chas did tell Sparky in the locker room that he was already getting buzzed.

[Mo Horn 8,833]

Yordan is lost right now

[Mo Horn 8,833]

Good thing we cinched last night

Plenty of ball to play tonight.  Manaea will be out soon and the A’s pen blows.  

[HtownHorn 14,678]

White Sox up 3-1. Just absolutely no reason with 3 days off before the playoffs that the regular lineup should not be playing tonight and tomorrow.

[HoustonFrog 368]

Yeh the division was a forgone conclusion, having home field is what matters

[Scraps 13,561]

That was clocked

[Mo Horn 8,833]

And we may be done here

[tx 3 putt 76,928]

[HtownHorn 14,678]

This is why half the city hates Dusty Baker.
