I think being home for 7 nights in a row will help. Home cooking. A routine. Hopefully in a few weeks the good players will have respectable numbers and the Sox go 12-8, and be 20-12.
Definitely enjoying the early wins and hopeful for contending all season, but if they average 3.5 runs a game, they won't.
I think the next four series against the Angels, Rangers, Blue Jays, and Orioles will see the Sox score a little more...they better.

Why exactly is Avi playing over Melky? Makes no sense.
Melky has started every game, and it's not a good move to have him start 155+ games anymore. Middle of 19 straight.
Rangers rained out today, so that pushes their rotation back to Tuesday.
Next weekend (if the Sox don't have rain problems themselves):
Perez vs Quintana
Lewis vs Rodon
Holland vs Latos
Upcoming series-
Mon- Santiago vs Rodon
Tue- Shoemaker vs Latos
Wed- Richards vs Sale
Thu- Weaver vs Danks
Day games Wednesday and Thursday. Then the Rangers come to town.
5-3 the next 8 would be just swell.
I appreciate Danks for being a hard worker and for giving a s***, but if his ERA is over 5 in four more starts, it's probably that time. Just need a better option come mid May.
