YAS, I know you're trying to keep things in check, and that's a solid rational move, but I will offer up that old chestnut that "you can't win the division in April and May, but you CAN lose the division in April and May".
What's nice about this is the confidence factor. You get the Sox thinking that "YEAH, we can beat these guys in their own house" and you get inside the Twins' heads a little bit, that can only be good for the Sox.
A good start is vital for the Sox because of the changes that have been made. A slow start would have everyone second-guessing and then they might start pressing, trying to do too much.
I like what I've seen so far, now I want to see them keep this level of starting pitching up!
I could'nt have said it better!
