Expectations on this year's team
We're starting off 11-8, 3 games over .500. That's really not too impressive considering we've only played the Tigers, Indians, and Royals (sure the Royals are playing well, but we should be able to beat them). We have 1 more easy series against the Orioles, and then its on to the big guys. The Twins series should give us a good idea of how much we have really improved from last year and where the Twins are at. We should take no less than 2 out of 3. Then we go out of the division and face the A's and Mariners for the next 12 games. From what I've seen so far, we've been very inconsistent at times. Our pitching has been pretty good (except for the last two games). D'Lo and Valentin have been very impressive leading off games. When our big guys (Thomas, Maggs, Konerko) start producing more, we should blow our opponents away. I would expect no less than division champs for the Sox with about 92 wins. The Twins just aren't as competitve as last year, when they put together a fairly magical season. The Royals will fall down to earth by about next month and we should have the division in control for 75% of the season.

Ballparks ranked
And I'm guessing they ranked Wrigly first?

Soriano vs Jimenez
I'd say. Just because Jimenez is hitting hot right now, he is NO WHERE near Soriano's level. Soriano, this little stick figure, will redefine the second baseman position.

The Unit is disabled
Hes on the 15-day DL. That team is getting way too old, I believe second oldest team in the majors (behind Seattle). Maybe it's finally time to start rebuilding?

Beat the Streak League
I've created a Beat the Streak league at MLB.com Basically the game is that you choose one player(on any team) everyday, and if the player gets a hit, your streak continues. Your goal is to the longest hitting streak. If anyone's interested in joining: League name: Soxnet Password: soxtalk http://www.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/fantasyBTSLe...vlet?action=mgt

Botch.....
JM is finally doing something right by giving Koch the ball in non-save opportunities. 1 bad start and we're already talking bout sending down Garland? Why not send down Buerhle too? And Dan Wright is as inconsistent as anyone in the rotation.

5 in 5
Rick Reed just blew up my ERA today :fyou

A bit of good news.
I'm hoping for a 1-0 Sox win since Ponson is on my fantasy team.

Soriano vs Jimenez
Soriano hit his 2nd Grand Slam of the season. D'Lo doesnt come close.

Sammy Sosa's hit in the head
Holy f*** I know we all hate Sosa's attitude, but no one deserves to be hit like that. It would be a sad day for sCrubbie fans if that put an end to his career... Any news on if he's ok?

Fun fact
O God...if the Cubs reach the World Series before us... Lets be realistic, the Cubs and Sox have about equal chance of making it to the WS. Barring injuries, the Cubs rotation is phenomenal with the Wood, Prior, Clement combo and is certainly a match for Buerhle, Colon, Garland. Their offense has scored over 10 runs in the last few games. I'd say they have a darn good chance. But of course, both Chicago teams have not done so well in the playoffs.

Fun fact
Soriano looks like a stick figure out there, but he was one homer off of 40HR/40steals last year. That kid is just amazing. With all the homers that he can hit now, I just hope that he doesnt get the idea into his head of how many he could hit once he's Bond's size. I would hate to see him get on steroids or something just to improve his game even more. Damn the Yankees..its just not fair And speaking of Jose Canseco, I think "Joe Blows" won the auction of a day with Canseco at $30,000

Damn you CLee
Same here. We are playing some great baseball right now. Our pitching looks better than it has been for years. Our offense is still off at times, but we're scoring the runs and getting the job done. I just hope that we can do the same against the Twins, Yankees, A's, Angels, Mariners...
