There's no way Humber comes out of the rotation right now. That can't happen. Why not see what happens with Buehrle tonight? If he has a rough one, maybe you skip him next time, and keep everyone else on 5 days rest. If not, Jackson has to be the guy to go to the bullpen.

Indians, Sox, and Tigers all have 30 quality starts. Indians 23-7 Tigers 20-10 Sox 18-12 Masterson and Tomlin are 18 for 19 in QS. That's not going to last, and that's why they'll come back to earth.

Real nice outing for Griffith, which is...new.

No drama. No drama, please.

The kids call him Rzep.

I hate that rule...but it goes both ways.

Relying on wild pitches again. hey, whatever works.

Most frustrating Sox team I've ever seen.

Absolutely, Sale should be in the minors starting. I have no idea what they're thinking there, especially with Ohman and Thornton as setup guys. They don't need three lefties without one of them being the closer.

I'd almost like to see some type of phantom injury for Dunn. Give him a couple weeks off. Send him home for a week to clear his head. I never would have guessed he would be this bad for this long. Unreal.

Kuhn 2-3, walk in the leadoff spot. Keep him there.

This is going to be sad.

I'm surprised Morrow is sporting a 5+ ERA, but hopefully he's bad. We kicked his ass last year up there.

It's incredible, they're this close to making it through April and May without one rain out. Especially this season, which has had 30+ rain outs.

Split a 4-gamer there last year.

Humber vs Morrow Pierre LF, Ramirez SS, Quentin RF, Konerko DH, Dunn 1B, Rios CF, Pierzynski C, Vizquel 3B, Beckham 2B

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 26, 2011 -> 01:00 PM) 7-0, out goes Scherzer. Sweep the Tigers please, then back off a little when you are back at Fenway on Monday Right now it looks like the Sox will face Lester/Aceves/Wakefield, but no Buchholz or Beckett. Just for the heck of it, I wanted to see who we'll face when Seattle comes to town...Pineda, Felix, Vargas. There's the payback.

Not sure if anyone brought it up, but remember last year Rios got booed mercilessly in Toronto, and he had a good series. Hopefully that will happen again.

Too bad about Posey. I hate to see young stars get sidetracked. Mauer and now Posey...it's not good for the game. As far as not being able to block the plate, it's an interesting dilemma. Kind of like an outfielder crashing into the wall to make a catch. Sure, you might save a run, but at the expense of being out for weeks or months? Probably not worth it in the won/loss column in the end.

Nice game for Mitchell, 3-4, double, homer, bb, 3 rbis

When the Sox were 11-22, would you have taken 12-6 the next 18 games? That's what they've done. Now let's get 4-5 wins in Toronto and Boston and come home and start kicking ass.

29 quality starts, and the Sox are only 17-12. 58.6% quality start conversion. Good teams convert on about 75-80% of quality starts. Sox should be 5-6 games better if not for the bad bullpen in the first couple weeks, and the awfulness of Pierre, Dunn, Rios, and our manager.

This game was lost when Dunn struck out. Maybe Ozzie might not want to use him against a lefty in a pressure situation until he actually gets a hit off a lefty in a non-pressure situation.

I didn't think the Web Redemption with the "boom" guy was that funny. Next week should be interesting with the naked guy.
