5:00 Eastern: White Sox @ Astros. White Sox won game one, I thought it was the best game of the day.

Sean Burke (11-7, 3.34) vs. Hunter Brown (6-4, 3.19).

8:00 Eastern: Red Sox @ Yankees. Yankees crushed the Red Sox yesterday. Always happy to see the Red Sox get thumped, but then it was the Yankees.

Sonny Gray (18-5, 2.72) vs. Max Fried (5-5, 2.80). If they can figure out a way for both to lose, I’d appreciate it.

10:00 Eastern: Cubs @ Padres. Padres won game one.

Kevin Gausman (9-12, 4.51) vs. Nick Pivetta (3-2, 2.86). Go Kevin Go.

I am going to cheer for all the teams that lost yesterday, so we get more baseball, other than the Yankees/Red Sox game, I can’t cheer for either of those teams.
