What the hell happened to Ricky Romero..

Even though lefty Aaron Laffey is starting for the Blue Jays tonight, the regular White Sox lineup is in place for tonight's first of 3 vs. Toronto. Here is tonight's White Sox lineup with batting average:

30 Alejandro De Aza CF (L) .291
20 Kevin Youkilis 3B (R) .249
32 Adam Dunn DH (L) .213
14 Paul Konerko 1B (R) .332
51 Alex Rios RF (R) .316
12 A.J. Pierzynski C (L) .287
24 Dayan Viciedo LF (R) .254
10 Alexei Ramirez SS (R) .256
15 Gordon Beckham 2B (R) .240

Jake Peavy hopes to snap a 4-game losing streak for the Southsiders tonight.

Please note that the Sox have not lost 4 straight, SHARK.

What does the Boyd Weather System show for tonite's game at "The Cell" on the Southside of Chicago?

I think we are in a heat wave, which is a prolonged period of excessively hot weather, which may be accompanied by high humidity. There is no universal definition of a heat wave; the term is relative to the usual weather in the area and relative to normal temperatures for the season. Temperatures that people from a hotter climate consider normal can be termed a heat wave in a cooler area if they are outside the normal climate pattern for that area. The term is applied both to routine weather variations and to extraordinary spells of heat which may occur only once a century. Severe heat waves have caused catastrophic crop failures, thousands of deaths from hyperthermia, and widespread power outages due to increased use of air conditioning.

"Old Man" Omar Vizquel isn't in tonight's lineup for the Blue Jays, but here's how they'll deal with the White Sox' Jake Peavy:

13 Brett Lawrie 3B (R) .291
28 Colby Rasmus CF (L) .262
19 Jose Bautista RF (R) .243
10 Edwin Encarnacion 1B (R) .295
26 Adam Lind DH (L) .201
5 Yunel Escobar SS (R) .256
11 Rajai Davis LF (R) .267
2 Kelly Johnson 2B (L) .245
9 J.P. Arencibia C (R) .226

Aaron Laffey does the chucking for Toronto this eve.

Wait: this is a game thread? What the fuck does it even mean?

Toronto is in town, pitching 3 lefties at the Sox. For whatever reason, Sox have really scuffled against the Jays over the last few years. They need to stay hot and take 2 of 3 into the AS Break. Though, who knows. in 2005 the A's swept them at The Cell going into the break. Need Floyd to have his good stuff, and Dunn and Konerko are due for a big series. Toronto Blue Jays vs. Chicago White Sox Friday, July 6, 7:10 PM CT, U.S. Cellular Field Aaron Laffey, LHP 0-0, 2.14 ERA Jake Peavy, RHP 6-5, 2.96 ERA Saturday, July 7, 3:10 PM CT, U.S. Cellular Field Ricky Romero, LHP 8-3, 5.35 ERA Gavin Floyd, RHP 6-8, 4.91 ERA Sunday, July 8, 1:10 PM CT, U.S. Cellular Field Brett Cecil, LHP 2-1, 5.64 ERA Sox pitcher is TBA for Sunday

I think they will throw Dylan Axelrod out there on Sunday so they can conserve Chris Sale for the All Star Game appearance on Tuesday night. Need his effort to get home field at the Cell for the World Series, you know.

There was talk that they won't even let him pitch in the AS game. That's BS. The kid has earned every right to pitch in or start that game. Tell Cokehead Washington that its 1 inning/ 25 pitch max and let him throw. He doesn't even have to leave KC since the Sox play there right after the break. I heard earlier in the year they were going to give Sale a long layoff over the AS Break, and I don't have a problem with that. I'd rather Sale pitch against the Red Sox than the Royals anyway. Crain went on the Dl (again ), and they brought up a guy from Charlotte who might start on Sunday.

If I was Ron Washington, I would do a couple of lines in the clubhouse prior to the game and then I would start Sale and leave him in for the whole game.

That free gallon of milk deal at Aldi when the Sox get a save is pretty nice...kids are finally going to be able to have something other than the powdered stuff Nestle discontinued.

We buy organic as well but free trumps all. I don't drink milk anyway.

That was a nice strike-em-out-throw-em-out double play to end the top half of the first.

Just a tip for future reference, Frankles...throw the dates on at the beginning...then I won't have to mock Shark Sports for half an afternoon.

Jake Peavy does not look like Wanda Sykes. Now if you'd said Pam Grier...
