But Youkilis, now there's a guy who can hit a slider.
I don't understand playing Youk and sitting WMB. I understand that you have to play Youk to trade Youk, but you also have to win games and WMB clearly gives the team a better chance.

You tell me. How is pitch 3 to Pedroia a strike, but pitches 2 and 4 to Bernadina are both balls?? That umpire was a huge piece of s***.
Wow. Yeah. Aceves has done GREAT as a closer. His 6.19 ERA in Save Situations has been brilliant. What a bunch of idiots. Likely the Saturday morning show on CSNNE.
It just takes a couple strings of solid outings from the rotation and the Sox are right back in the thick of things.
Fortunately they go MIA CHC MIA over the next 9 games, so they should be able to take 6-7 of those. Should be able to pick up 2-3 games on the Yanks/Rays over the next 9 games.
I've taken the formula back to all teams from last year and it's extremely accurate. Within 1-2 games of almost every team. It will straighten itself out, don't worry.
Sox will be fine. Put it in your sig if you'd like.
