Kyyle23 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 F*** Seattle and the rain they brought with them, part deux. Go Sox I heard Floyd went and had a surgical procedure to get his head removed from his rear end. There were no complications so he should be good to go today.

Marty34 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) I'll be by the Beers of the World stand in LF during the top of the third today and tomorrow I'll buy the first one to say "Hey Marty" a beer each day. I'll be wearing a Sox hat with a shamrock on the back of it. Can't make it too easy for you, right? Edited June 2, 2012 by Marty34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 1 game back of Texas for best record in the AL. Winning streaks do wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning streaks win divisions. The "winning series" philosophy is a bad philosophy. I think Robin has this team only thinking about showing up to the park THAT DAY, and playing the game the right way, and with the talent they have, good results will happen. By the way, take away the head-to-head vs Texas in their park, and the Sox have the same record as Texas. Sox are in very good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkjt Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Dodgers have come back to the pack also...only 2 games better than the Sox for best record in MLB. Sox need to keep this rolling at home the next 8, so that when they go on the road vs the defending World Champ Cards and the best team in baseball Dodgers,they have some cushion. Being on a roll when they get to interleague play is a good concept,instead of waiting until they start interleague play to get on a roll. Roll into interleague play,then keep rolling!

The Dodgers are not as good as their record suggests...they've been getting good pitching out of Ted Lilly/Aaron Harang/Chris Capuano...that will not continue at the rate they have been...and now Kemp looks like he may be out another month...I've been watching the Dodgers quite a bit lately...we are a much better team than they are right now.

That's the truth. Lilly just went on the DL. There is no way in hell Capuano will keep pitching like a top 5 Cy Young candidate. (last night @ Coors doesn't really count though) Abreu & Jerry Hairston Jr. have had revitalizations so far, they are probably due to regress.

And Ted Lilly is also on the shelf now with a sore shoulder, so the Sox will not be facing him either. Which is good, because Lilly has generally been pretty good against the Sox.

But yes, Dodgers are definitely heading back towards middle of the pack. Giants should win that division, especially with Melky Ruth in their lineup.

Or don't pitch him for the jinx to take place and him to throw a great game. But we don't play well at home. In all seriousness, Floyd has been lights out career-wise against the Mariners.
