Until the Sox kick off their ALDS games with the Angels…so more randomness from the Boston Red Thoughts Locker…. Minnesota and the White Sox and STILL in a holding pattern after last night’s win by the White Sox–They play a tie breaker, a winner takes all game, which started at 7:30 in Chicago on TBS…Frankly, I [...]
