2021 ALDS, CHW VS HOU

[Remagellan]

Wait that's not an automatic out?

Edit: ah it was before the 45 foot box

Well, that has to be the most controversial play I've seen in the last hour or so.

 

[shawnrbu]

I wonder if Wainwright ever voted AJP as Most Hated MLB Player during all those years AJP topped the list.

 

[Remagellan]

The ChiSox have mastered the art of the infield offense.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Tough to watch Greinke at the end of his career like this.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Tough to watch Greinke at the end of his career like this.

Really? I mean, he still pitched 171 innings this season with a WHIP of 1.17. He isn't exactly Tim Lincecum

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

He is a free agent. Would you take him on the Sox if it was a reasonable deal?

 

[LogansDad]

He is a free agent. Would you take him on the Sox if it was a reasonable deal?

Yes. Absolutely. I would love to root for him in my home team's uniform, even if he is a mediocre pitcher. He's my favorite non-Pedro player of this millennium.

I just remember when the Sox signed AJP and the board nearly melted down.

 

[BornToRun]

I just remember when the Sox signed AJP and the board nearly melted down.

He did have that walkoff triple against Tampa.

 

[dhellers]

What is weird is seeing runners advance 1 st to third on soft base hits to right center (twice back in that whacky 5 run rally).

Btw: be cool to have a Sox Sox alcs. Get some revenge for the 2005 debacle

 

[Lowrielicious]

Yes. Absolutely. I would love to root for him in my home team's uniform, even if he is a mediocre pitcher. He's my favorite non-Pedro player of this millennium.

Your second favourite player of this millennium isn't a redsox player??

 

[LogansDad]

Your second favourite player of this millennium isn't a redsox player??

Yes, but I also spent the entire millennium in the military moving all over (joined in 99 and just retired last year), so while the Sox are still my favorite team bar none, I have learned to enjoy watching other teams and other teams' players. Papi is very close, obviously, but I just adore Greinke and his story and his quirkiness and everything he has gone through to get to where he is in baseball and in life. To me, he' a superhero.

 

[The Filthy One]

I would love to see the White Sox come back and take this series. I don't think it will happen, but that would be great.

I think they have the offensive talent to do it. Pitching may be another story, though.

Guess you missed the new rule in which a rain-out is a forfeit for the home team.

One of my students (I teach community college in Chicago) just emailed to let me know she couldn't make today's online class meeting because the rescheduled Astros-White Sox game conflicted.

at least she is honest!

That should be an automatic A

 

[nvalvo]

I have a very approachable pedagogical persona.

 

[joe dokes]

at least she is honest!

Or she knows the teacher's soft spot and is nowhere near a TV or ballpark.

 

[Ale Xander]

Jose not waiting around

 

[Ale Xander]

BRegman can’t get run home from 3rd and 1 out

umpire with wide strike zone
Rodon throwing 99

 

[The Filthy One]

Nice to see an early squander for the Astros.

 

[ehaz]

Rodon healthy is huge huge huge

 

[Ale Xander]

May need to put this on mute. Too much AJP

 

[Ale Xander]

Sheets HR hits top of wall

Astros CF looks hurt

 

[E5 Yaz]

shoulder?

 

[JCizzle]

Did he dislocate his shoulder? That impact didn’t seem overly hard considering it’s padded.

 

[joe dokes]

Hard hit there.

Replay: Ouch, glove arm really whipsawed.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Geesh, he gets to the dugout and only two teammates acknowledge him?

 

[JCizzle]

The Astros have big time 25 cabs for 25 guys vibes, but they’re so good that it probably doesn’t matter.

 

[Ed Hillel]

This ump is awful awful awful

 

[The Filthy One]

Is Dusty Baker the last manager who dresses like he might have to pinch hit later? Still rocking those wristbands.

 

[Ed Hillel]

What a huge AB here

 

[The Filthy One]

This is a terrifying at-bat. Come on, Rodón.

 

[LogansDad]

FUCK

 

[Ed Hillel]

Went up and got it

 

[The Filthy One]

Now he goes and gets him.

 

[jon abbey]

Correa is making himself sone serious money this season, $300M at least I think.

 

[jmcc5400]

Yeah, I want no part of Altuve, Bregman and Correa. We can beat them. But I'd rather not have to try.

 

[joe dokes]

Nice 3-1 out to save those Sox.

 

[joe dokes]

I like the red-winged blackbird effect of the orange panels on the Astros catching gear. Makes a nice target.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Correa in Detroit with Hinch seems like an obvious fit. You’re always one great player away from contending in the AL Central.

 

[strek1]

CWS better not get too far behind. (And they are - Danger Zone at 5-1)

 

[TFisNEXT]

Oof.....that feels like a dagger for the White Sox. I know it's still early but 4 runs down now. Had a chance to get out of that only down 2.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Yankees fans’ worst nightmare ALCS

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Yeah, I want no part of Altuve, Bregman and Correa. We can beat them. But I'd rather not have to try.

This is like rooting for weaker opponents against Pats during the dynasty. Rarely works out that way. Go beat the best.
