Twins - no lefty starters until Diamond comes back (unless you count Pedro Hernandez) Indians- no lefty starters until Kazmir is ready, if that. Tigers- no lefty starters Royals- no lefty starters So, that's 47% of the schedule.

We need 50 wins by July 8th. Let's make this one of them.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 11, 2013 -> 08:45 AM) Almost every team goes through an 8-game stretch like that during the season. Just so happens the Sox did it during the first 8 games I'll give you that. But the fear that this team just makes too many outs to be a serious contender haven't been disproved yet. I like to evaluate the team every 27 games. We'll see where we are at the end of the month.

I can complain about trivial things with the best of them. A pants stripe is not one of them. I'm more concerned about how mediocre the Sox organization is from top to bottom.

.278 OBP. Last in the AL---and that includes the Astros. Fire Walker...oh wait.

The Royals look like they could be something. They play Toronto next and then hit the road--Atlanta, Boston, Detroit. We'll see.

Win two. Lose two Win two Lose two

Watch the 2-out damage, Gavin.

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 07:15 PM) Loser! Trade his ass! I know. I've seen enough.

This Harper kid may be alright.

Hawkins K'd

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 06:36 PM) Hawkins with another HR. Giggity. May have to listen to his next AB. http://media4.aicmail.net:8080/MiLB/GameAu...ston-salem_dash

Tigers lose a game they should have won. That bullpen is proving to be hot garbage.

Hawkins homer. Hit it off Eduardo Rodriguez. Lefty. No. 3 prospect of Orioles.

Fun

Arencibia double. Scores three. Walks will kill you.

Villareal for the Tigers can't throw strikes. 6-5 tigers, bases loaded one out, Dotel coming in. Top 7.

Porcello hit the wall in the 6th. Seems to be going around. 6-4 Tigers, Jays still hitting

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 04:16 PM) I'm sure Toronto will eventually play better, but they stink right now. Hope they stay that way for another week. Agreed. Buehrle will probably end up being the same guy, but if he has an awful year, I wouldn't put it past him to leave a ton of money on the table, and just go home.

I think it would be Morel. You can keep him on the bench and put him in for defense late.

https://twitter.com/DanHayesCSN/status/322087775857938432 Just put him on the DL. We all know this is going to take more than a week.

How about an easy win tonight? Are the Sox capable of such a thing?

Jays-Tigers just started. Go Buehrle.
