Let’s hope tonight’s game is a better game the last few have been, that is, if we get one in. The weather is not favorable right now, but looks to clear up around 8pm.

We have some roster moves ahead of tonight’s game:

  • Ryan Borucki has been reinstated from the COVID-19 IL, and Ty Tice optioned back down
  • Lourdes Gurriel Jr has been added to the COVID-19 IL (vaccine side effects), and Santiago Espinal has been recalled to take his place

In team COVID news:

Here is tonight’s lineup. Vladdy gets a DH day, Espinal will make his season debut at 3rd, and Palacios gets the start in LF.

We are glad you are here, and hope you feel welcome. As a reminder, we have rules. Mostly it’s “don’t be terrible,” but these days it’s also, “please debate about baseball and not the coronavirus or vaccines.” If a moderator asks you to stop doing something, please stop. If you want to discuss the rules, don’t do it in the thread. Email Tom instead. We also have a BBB Glossary full of GameThread lingo you can find here. You can Adopt-a-Jay here, and here’s a helpful tutorial on how to post images in comments.
