Great to see Sale get his s*** together. At the start of this week, I said let's go 6-1. We're halfway there.

Great to see Sale pitch like that and get some run support.

JDM needs to find his stroke as he looks lost at the plate and his average is in free fall

[dannycater]

Devers, Holt, Bogie, Betts all swinging the bat well and Workman mostly been lights out of pen. Sale was due, overdue, and past due. Good for him, better for the Sox.

I will take 11-6 or better

[dannycater]

I find it way too much to play teams 19 teams or so a year. It's too many games same opponent.

[moonslav59]

I will take 11-6 or better

 

Starting 5-1 or 6-0 would help greatly.

We already have one sweep at the Trop this year. Now's a good time for another, especially if Sale has turned the corner

[OH FOY]

Guardians are hot. They took over top WC spot, and only 4 games behind the Twins.

[moonslav59]

Oakland lost. TB got swept.

 

We are 1 down in the loss column to TB and 2 down to the Guardians.

 

Games behind:

 

CLE +1

 

TBR -1

 

BOS -1

 

We are now ties with TB and 2.5 up on the Rangers.

 

Time to rock'n'roll!

 

Our .546 winning % would be 3rd best in the NL.

 

[OH FOY]

4 in the loss column to the Guardians.

3 behind the Guardians,

2 behind Rays and A's, for last spot. I think this is easier to figure it out.

Games behind is for last WC spot, not 1st. At this point A's have the last spot. A's need to make up 2 games though.

Got to finish this weekend with last cupcake, for 2 weeks. Rays and Yanks have owned us so far this season. They have to turn that around. 5-11, with 2 rainouts.

Lets sweep Baltimore so we can hurry up and start this stretch with Tampa and New York. That in my opinion is what will make or break us.

After Baltimore, which should be a sweep along with Eovaldi's return in a new role, there are the 14 TBR/NYY games that will reshape this inconsistent season. If the Sox get 9-5 from the Rays and Yanks, then the Wild Card will be looking more realistic. 7-7 or less will be treading water or near drowning.
