Just remember....we won the offseason.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:10 PM) Please rain tomorrow, please rain tomorrow. I don't want Danks starting, especially not against the Royals. Not happening. Afternoon tomorrow is clear.

I guess losing now is better than watching them act like assholes on a walk off.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) Rain coming soon? No

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:02 PM) Robin makes Abreu strike out. You're better than that

This is a death march to 0-2

Make that 5 shutouts today. Cleveland shutout Houston 2-0. Carrasco may have finally found it.

They shouldn't even try to steal on Perez. Know your limitations. if Eaton can't steal on a catcher like Perez, don't do it. Just use your speed for 1st to 3rd.

The Sox play f***ing stupid.

Four more shutouts today. What the...

They'll tie it on a DP....can I be anymore negative!?

Herrera-Davis-Holland vs Putnam-Duke-Robertson

Sox bullpen will be tested tonight. Eh, who are we kidding? Sox will lose 8-4.

Hopefully the Sox pull this one out. That Hosmer homer...really acting that way in the 3rd inning of the second game of the season? So un-pro.

You got Price, Milone, Vargas, Duffy, and House in the division. That's 25% of the division starters. If Beckham starts 40 and Gillaspie starts 120, is that bad? I mean, other than Beckham getting 40 starts? BTW- the average last five seasons, the Sox face lefty starters 43 games per season.

Milone is starting Friday. Pelfrey and Hughes against Shark and Sale.

It's been a thing in the past where you give everyone a start the first series just to get their feet wet at the beginning of the season. I'm sure Soto and Bonifacio will start tomorrow, and then they'll play the regulars at home, until Milone starts--then probably more Bexx.

Nicklaus got a hole-in-one today. https://vine.co/v/eB6QeBY0MDF

Royals going with their regulars https://twitter.com/Royals/status/585895828276908032

Sale- 31 Samardzija- 32 Quintana- 32 Noesi- 30 Danks- 9 Rodon- 20 Beck- 4 Carroll- 3 Johnson- 1 We can come back and laugh at this in September.

QUOTE (BrianAnderson @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 02:02 PM) Really? Come on. I get sticking by your point if you had one. But fact check yourself.. Noesi never has pitched over 160 innings in his career. That was last year. The next highest are 106 innings and 55 innings. Danks has pitched 193, 138, 53, 170 innings over his past 4 years. Shark - has started over 30 games twice Rodon - hasn't sniffed the majors yet and will most likely be on a innings limitation Quintana - has pitched consistently in his 3 years up. But far from calling him Mark Buehrle Sale - has started 30 games once in his 3 years I'm done responding on this topic. It's too much to get worked up about. You're right. It's going to be sunshine and rainbows all year. Bye

The first 5 you listed. Not the second 5. But I don't think Penny will. Before June, Carroll. After June, Rodon. Anything else, it's doubleheaders or injuries I don't want to think about.

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 01:24 PM) This is optimistic. On average, teams will use 10 starters per season (Sox used exactly 10 last year) and will need, on average, 32 starts from starters outside their top 5 (Sox had 26 last year). Yes, an optimistic and realistic scenario if Sale, Samardzija, Quintana, Danks, Rodon, and Noesi stay healthy...which for the most part, they have been.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 01:20 PM) Man, the Twins are going to be BAD this season. Not sure this is a statement I would make until Sunday night. It's a team the Sox are going to have to dominate.
