oblong Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 sure hope the rain holds off. Doesn't look like a soaker but could be some thunder around. I will be there and also going Friday/Saturday/Sunday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be there and also going Friday/Saturday/Sunday. These kind of rain situations can toast Skubal for sure. Pitch 1-2 inning then long delay. Lets hope it clears out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Good idea posting this day before. We’ll probably have at least five full pages in the books before game time. I wouldn’t say I’m nervous, exactly, but I do have a bit of trepidation going into this week because now, all of a sudden, I feel the twinge of expectations. With playoffs odds around 70%, it would be at least somewhat disappointing for me to see them fall short. Even if we finish 0-6, I will still be very, very happy with this season and our prospects going into 2025. But just a little twinge, y’know? But that’s OK. That just means we have a good team to root for now. With the Twins playing the Marlins, it wouldn’t surprise me to see them win 2/3 while we win only 1/3 from the Rays and we go into the weekend down one. That would make sweeping the White Sox imperative. It would be a sweet tension I haven’t felt with this franchise probably since 2013. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are on the road, albeit against washington. A 4-2 homestand is a must, 5-1 preferable obviously. **** it, sweep the Rays and keep it gravy. This team has supposed to have folded the last month and they haven't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're playing loose, no pressure. Playing spoiler. But we have Skubal going Tuesday. Win 2 out of 3 so fans don't panic...😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Let's hope it isn't postponed cause that could be the difference between getting 2 Skubal starts to end the regular season or just one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 This is like you've been smoking this garbage Mexican dirt weed from the 70's on a makeshift beer can pipe for the last ten years, and all of a sudden someone packs some hydroponic Godfather OG into a Dopezilla Hydra bong and makes you take the biggest huff of your life. That's what this all feels like. h/t @Hongbit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
