*OFFICIAL* 6-27-21 Split Doubleheader Postgames Thread

[Frater Perdurabo]

Lambert made Game 2 more interesting than necessary.

Even so, we gain half a game on Cleveland.

Maybe Mercedes and Collins have want to have a few more games like today?

[thomas35forever]

Still in control of the division. Let's hope we can gain a little more of it with a solid series against Minnesota. We certainly showed signs of breaking out of this slide in the second game.

Amazing stat - Score runs and you win. Don't score and you lose. Sox have not lost a game since June 1 when they've scored 4 or more.

Have to wonder how long Jose will be out. That was a scary shot on that knee.

[Harwar]

For me, there is nothing more exciting in the game of baseball, than an outfielder nailing a guy at the plate . nice to see some offense for a change . here come the Twins who have been winning of late.

[FielderJones]

Very nice throw by Luis Gonzalez to nail Seager at the plate. Turned out to be crucial with the crap outing by Lambert.

[HomeFish]

Lambert obviously has some things to work on in the minors. Other than that the Sox played very well today.

[MrX]

Crochet looks like he’s just mentally a mess. One of his walks should have been a K, but Collins moved it out of the zone.

Good to see Yermin contribute and Gonzalez looked good.

[Lipman 1]

Well at least they got a win AND increased their lead in the division.

But, another key player is going to be out awhile (although as bad as Jose has been slumping the rest may do him good), the offense is still basically non-existent, the pitchers are giving up home run after home run after home run and the Sox have lost seven of nine.

The S.S. White Sox is listing and taking on water from multiple areas. If Captain Rick doesn't get his **** together real soon the vessel is going to sink.

I'm sorry but I can't understand what he's waiting for myself. They've been talking supposedly about Escobar for a week...why isn't he here yet? I mean it's not rocket science since the Diamondbacks are D.O.A. and he's going to be a free agent...just give them a low minor league player and let's go! (Although Hahn needs to acquire a hell of a lot more than just him...)

X-Rays by the way on Jose were negative for a fracture. I was hit in the same spot on my right leg years ago when I played, there's no fat or muscle there to act as a cushion, it hurt like hell, in fact I was on crutches for about 10 days.

Sox may well have lost this game if it had gone nine, three RBsI from Mercedes and four RBIs from Collins notwithstanding. It wasn't actually a doubleheader, but MLB is content with making up rules for the sake of convenience. The difficulties weren'tt just about Lambert. Crochet hasn't had an acceptable outing since the last home stand.

The Sox are now 2-0 in games following losses where Abreu came out with scary-looking injuries.

With Abreu going down for sometime, that puts the AZ GM in the driver's seat, It'll take more than a low level minor league player. I guarantee that if a trade is made with AZ half this site will be screaming that Hahn over paid.

Abreu was hitting below .200 in June (probably more .190ish). I don't think this changes Arizona's bargaining position at all.

You do realize that the other team needs to agree to the deal, right? It isn't simply a matter of Hahn picking up the phone and declaring a trade.

Don't you know that all activities involving potential trades have to be made public or fans get all pissy?

I’d also add that I don’t think they really have anybody to trade.

I disagree with that.
