They had a beautiful afternoon to play this game, but because baseball(like everything else) is all about money, they played it at night knowing there was rain in the forecast.
If the SOX lose tonight, the FO still has until 6PM Tuesday to sell Kenley and O'Neill. There's no way to fix the pitching problems on this team, so this is the best time to get the most for those two.
SOX picked up a DFA from the Dodgers. He's Yohan Ramirez, A RH reliever who sports a 5.97 ERA in 32 games this season.
Breslow says "I've gotten you a starter, a RH bat and a reliever. No excuses now. Go get 'em boys!'
Snell K'd 15 Rockies in 6 innings today. A new record for most K's in 6 innings or less. I wonder if that was the same Rockies' team the SOX just played?
The following is so obvious that even Capt Obvious says it's obvious.
Houck needs to have an excellent start. He needs to go 7 innings. With this SOX BP I almost wanted to post Houck has to go 9.
