5/24 @ Houston

[bkzwhitestrican]

Next homestand could bring you guys back down to Earth a little. I don't think it will, but San Diego's no slouch, and Machado loves playing in NYC and Boston.

 

You could be right. We'll likely have bullpen games/spot starters in three of our next six games so going .500 or worse during that timeframe is possible, though I'll say we finish 4-2 against KC/SD. As for the Sox series, I feel like we'll take 3 of 4 at home but who really knows.

JD feeling better I see. Is a sweep too much to ask for? Realistically? Feeling optimistic.. lets go get some payback.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX have a strong bench tonight with Devers, Moreland and VAZ.

[vegasbob]

Chavis isn't the right guy to lead off vs Miley. The K was predictable

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It's disappointing that the SOX don't have a true lead-off batter. Oh, wait.

Just what I was thinking re: Mookie, but Cora will not backtrack on his mid-winter decision, even though Beni is clearly a movable feast

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Rather see Sale go 7 with no K's then go 6 with 10K's.

[d-money]

I hope they don’t make Miley look like cy young again.

[jad]

Is that what you meant by 3 outs with no Ks? (I think I'd feel safer with the K's!)

Cora is incoragible.

[vegasbob]

Rather see Sale go 7 with no K's then go 6 with 10K's.

Agreed, he needs to pitch them to a win, although he can't personally score the runs. At some level the K's are pointless.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

With this BP you'd better hope for 7.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Miley is SALEing along.

[vegasbob]

I hope they don’t make Miley look like cy young again.

 

Better try something stronger than hope. The second inning batters were in worse shape than the firsts.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Paethetic

[d-money]

Here we go again with these slow starts offensively.

Wait till you see the next 3.

[d-money]

Come on sale. Do your thing .

[d-money]

Sale has to be sharp facing cy miley.

[jad]

K's please!

[Station 13]

Sale is throwing BP.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Leon's only catching because of his bat. What's that? Er, nevermind.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Need abit of luck here

[Swiharts Ghost]

That's sale

[Swiharts Ghost]

Paethetic

[jung]

An old timey slide that appears to have worked out for the runner.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Fat strikes
