Best 5th starter in baseball? Team record by starter: Garcia 9-4 Danks 7-6 Buehrle 7-7 Peavy 7-7 Floyd 4-10 34-34. Who would have thunk it 12 days ago when the Sox were 24-33? Awesome.

Threets with a scoreless 9th. Hudson gets his 9th win.

Danks seems to be getting it going lately. Double today.

Maybe the Tigers have someone they think can pitch every 5th game better than Porcello. I don't think the Sox are in that position with 2B, and Beckham. Let's face it, if CJ Retherford went to AAA this year and hit .300, he would have been up. But he sucked and now is back in AA. QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 12:07 PM) Porcello down to AAA. If the Tigers can make that move, we can send Beckham down as well.

I thought it was Hudson's turn today? He started last Sunday.

10 out 11 games with a quality start. The other one was a Freddy win. This is how you get on a roll.

Manute Bol gone at 47. RIP.

Laumann compared Ravelo to Mike Lowell.

Laumann was on with Rongey today. I missed who he said was going right to Kannapolis--either Saladino or Terry. Anyone hear which?

Interleague tally... AL leads 74-66. Sox, Tigers, and Red Sox are 24-6. The other 11 AL teams are 50-60.

Knocked off 3 games during interleague so far. Twins 5-5 (2 at Phi, 3 at Mil, 3 at NYM) Tigers 8-2 (2 vs Arz, 3 at NYM, 3 at Atl) Sox 8-2 (2 at Was, 3 vs Atl, 3 vs Cubs) The next 8 games are HUGE. They have to keep it going.

Sox picked up this guy, I guess. http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/p...id=ouelle001rya

Good. Keep it going. QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 11:21 PM) eek.. so three teams are 21-6 and the AL is only +6?

Sox are one of three AL teams at 7-2 in interleague. Tigers and Red Sox are the others. Half way through, AL leads 66-60.

Twins win. f***. Just can't make a bigger dent.

According to MLB Trade Rumors, the Sox have signed 22 players. They failed to provide a link, and there's nothing on the Sox website, so maybe tomorrow? edit: The Sox website does have a story now, but hasn't listed the signed players on their database yet. Bastards.

Seems to me Danks was rushed to AA last year, and AAA this year.

Is Jordan Danks bad at baseball?

Viciedo homered, and he's playing 3B tonight. Hmmm...

I think KW steps down after this season. Ozzie stays for another year, at least. Depending on the outcome of the season, maybe he'll be gone after 2011.

Ozzie, Kenny, and Joe Cowley?

Nice catch. QUOTE (kev211 @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 02:16 PM) I'm also sick of looking at left handed batting Alexei
