I'd be ok with us losing the other 158 games, as long as we beat the Cubs

Go Bears

Each player will have a day with The Cup. Social media will be inundated with pictures of players and what they are doing that day with The Cup.

Batters will be taking a swing at it and missing. Pitchers will be throwing it through a window 5 feet away and end up throwing 4. Everyday they try to get The Cup to Grandal, and everyday it somehow gets by him.

Series will probably be split so the Sox will retain the Cup which is about perfect for the way both of the teams' seasons have gone.

I hope the Sox go 0-4.

Its a Tuesday, the prices as jacked up, and the teams suck. Not surprising.

Good start, with Jackie Robinson making an error on a fairly routine play and homers following by Swanson and Morel. Mastrobuoni nearly had yet another. The look on Koepeck's face looked like he thought that one was out too. Does he lead baseball in homers surrendered?

Probably the biggest crowds they will have the rest of the season in these 2 games, with Cubs fans pushing the numbers significantly higher. Can't blame Sux fans when the team is 19 under .500

The turnaround Kopech is going to need to even have the career of noted buster Jeff Samardzija will need to amazing .

How old are you? Isn't it time to drop the "sux" thing? Christ aren't you like 65 or something?

Grandal is so bad defensively.

Why did he take the ball out of his glove?

All he had to do was glove and spin. The throw was perfect.

And he gets stolen on like nothing. Why not steal on him?

Kopech should have been replaced 3 batters ago. Nice management.

Kopech sucks and nothing matters.

Pitch him the whole game.

I expect that is what happens. Let him go all out for 1-2 innings. The only problem is he seems pretty weak mentally. Can he handle the pressure of closing out a game?

I'd like to find out. This starter thing is not working. He was decent (at best) in middle relief at one point.

He also throws like 95 now and the pitch clock seems to have broken him.

It was fun when they played each other 6 times during the season and at least one series fell on a weekend.

It’ll be fun again when both teams aren’t pure, steaming dog shit.
