  1. E-Rod 5-4 6.21ERA vs A. Kittredge 5-1 1.34ERA Hopefully, my Mojo will be risin' tonight. Note: "Mr Mojo Risin'" is an anagram for "Jim Morrison." I will play 'L.A. Woman' by The Doors before the game. Maybe it will help my Mojo. GO SOX!
  2. I'd be very happy if the SOX can go 3-3 over the next 6 games.
  3. 3 outs on 7 pitches. SOX in a hurry to play golf tomorrow.
  4. At least the SOX will have their best hitters up in the 9th.
  5. It appears in the case of Marwin and Santana that because each had one really good offensive year, they get a whole season to prove they can't hit anymore.
  6. Arroyo's injury didn't take long to come back to haunt us.
  7. Bobby was thrown a very hittable mistake that he fouled off.
  8. Speaking of pitchers who aren't earning their money, do you all remember Ryan Dempster? Before the 2013 season he signed a 2 year 26.5 million dollar contract with the SOX. Before the 2014 season started, Dempsey decided to retire saving the SOX 13 million dollars. I remember Ryan saying that he was terrible in 2013 and he wanted to spend more time with his family. He was a class act.
  9. Looks like the SOX don't like playing on Fathers' Day.
  10. What should the SOX do regarding Andriese. Is his 2.1 million contract too high to DFA him?
  11. I'm guessing they'll bring up MC to replace Arroyo, but I like your thinking.
  12. I'm hoping Cora can forget about 2018 and start managing with brains and not hunches.
  13. I have no idea, but it could be another Cora hunch that failed.
  14. Speaking of SOX world series; from 1946-1986 the SOX lost 4 WS and every one of them went 7 games. What's the odds of that happening. Maybe it was truly a curse.
  15. That is correct. Ted Williams was also hit in the arm by a pitch right before the 1946 WS. Ted underperformed in that WS, but he never used his arm injury as an excuse.
  16. 1975. The 'gold-dust twins' and the last year before everything changed in the business of baseball. Charlie Finley saw it coming and bailed.
  17. Before that in '75 he was injured right before the PO's and wasn't able to play in any of the games. That really sucked.
  18. When one sees how easy it is to get injured in sports, it just makes Cal Ripken's consecutive game streak even more unbelievable.
  19. That the SOX are in 1st place in late June with this starting 5 is miraculous.
  20. A fastball with no movement in MLB is called batting practice.
