CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 My 1st effort at a game thread this year. Need to get back on a winning track or looking at next years draft and hoping to do badly threads will be popping up all over Soxtalk. Sale has to be a stopper tonight.

BigHurt3515 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Why is Gillaspie batting 7th now?? He has the highest average on the team. I guess we are facing a lefty today so it makes sense but didn't he bat lower in the line up yesterday too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunt Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Better question is why the f*** is Viciedo batting cleanup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Better question is why the f*** is Viciedo batting cleanup? He usually does vs LHP. Not really a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I hate when the Sox play the Orioles. Seems like it's a formality that a closer blows a save and the O's walk it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) How the hell is the Sox collection of talent supposed to win one on the road vs. Balt after losing four to a hellhole team like Minnesota? Answer. Sox can't. So pencil in 3 losses. I assume it's a 3 game series. Of course Sale might shut out anybody so I guess one win is possible.

witesoxfan Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 23, 2014 -> 03:16 PM) Bobby Jenks probably had really decent numbers after stripping his outings against Baltimore. 7.02 career ERA against Baltimore. I expected it to be even worse than that.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I feel infinitely more confident against the Orioles than I do the Royals or Twins. We seem to play to our opponent's level. We play well against good teams, we play bad against bad teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1dog Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) When do we hear the first Cy Chen reference? I'll guess the 4th inning. LOL ok, wrong Chen. Same idea though. Edited June 23, 2014 by 1dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
