Assuming Lester, Hendricks, Darvish. Hopefully the Sox do not hit 15 Home runs over the course of three games and Cubs take 2 of 3.

Cubs are at home.

If you’re going to make game threads at least make them accurate!

Ametuers! Psst.

It should be a good series. If the wind is blowing out, Lester might need to be on a short leash.

Meanwhile, Adzolay might deserve another start in Chatwood's spot in the rotation next week. But I don't think they want to burn an option to then demote him since they are comfortably ahead of the playoff cut line. They have another DH in early September, I think they bring him up then and keep him up so they can keep the playoff starters fresh and lined up for the first round.

Options go by years not times sent down.

You have to be sent down at least once to burn an option. What I don't remember is whether getting sent to the alternate site after summer camp qualifies.

Almost positive it qualifies as an option.

You are right, he was on the 40 man at the start of Sprung Training. What I was thinking is when it is not an option if he wasn't on the 40 man, gets brought up ("selected") and never goes back down. Same with Rule V guys who survive the whole year.

Everyone is looking at the White Sox offense but the pitching has been fantastic. Bullpen looks great. If the Cubs cant jump on them early in every game I think it could be a long series for them.

This ump is giving Keuchel a way inside strike tonight. Two runs may be enough.

plus cubs bats seem dead. even that first inning their approach at the plate you could tell it was going to be a struggle to score a run tonight.

If Benetti is too much of a homer what was hawk? He was nearly unlistenable to people that like homers.
