QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 29, 2012 -> 03:12 PM) I will start thinking post season after I see where we are following that brutal schedule in July I agree with that. Two months from today, the Sox finish a series in Texas. I would be very happy with a 55-46 record at that point, which means 28-24 from now to then. That would leave 61 games to go 35-26 for 90 wins.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 29, 2012 -> 07:47 AM) Jayson Stark ‏@jaysonst Here's that @MikeandMike trivia: Paul Konerko (400) is one of 4 active players w/ 300+ HR for their current team. Can you name the other 3? That was one of the easier Jayson Stark trivia questions.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ May 29, 2012 -> 02:13 PM) PK named AL player of the week...no shocker there Never forget.

I just hope Sale woke up this morning and his arm felt good.

Hawk09, good post. It's anecdotes, btw. I like Hawk's catchphrases. But my problem with him is that he goes too far making it about HIM. Punctuating every call with a WOW! or a Mercy! because he knows that will be used on highlight packages. It's not a natural call. It's forced by him to make it about him. If he just toned down the 60's references and the forced calls, I would still like Harrelson. And I think his chemistry with Stone is ok.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 29, 2012 -> 05:37 AM) If the season ended today, these would be your 2 wildcards... I would hope the Orioles and Rays would play a game first to decide the East.

Mitchell with 4 walks. OBP over .400.

This one has Lance McCullers going to the Sox. http://www.mymlbdraft.com/MLB-Mock-Draft-2012

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ May 28, 2012 -> 05:16 PM) With the surplus of pitches Sale had today anyway they can push his start back a day so we can get Kershaw/Sale??? I'm just being greedy lol You never know. I'm assuming they'll skip Humber with Thursday/Monday off days coming up. If they don't, it could be Sale vs Kershaw on June 15.

Please hit a gapper Rios.

QUOTE (K-Rock @ May 28, 2012 -> 04:27 PM) Has Adam had a game this year where he didn't strike out? Yes

Hawk voice: I love Memorial Day Sale's.

With Sale and Moore starting, this is a game you remember 20 years later.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 28, 2012 -> 04:07 PM) He'll be going on 5 days rest next start I may have to go to that game Sunday.

I hope Sale wakes up tomorrow feeling ok. This is one you have to worry about a little. What a great game.

Birmingham- Castro http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?s...cngaax_biraax_1 Winston-Salem- Petricka back out there, and gives up 3 runs in the first http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?s...frdafa_wswafa_1 Winston-Salem Gm 2- Buch http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?s...frdafa_wswafa_2 Kannapolis- Walters http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?s...romafx_kanafx_1

Tigers lost

Wow, Doyle keeps it up. 7.1 IP, 1 hit, 0 runs, 2 bb, 3 k 2.16 ERA in his last 58.1 innings

That Cardinals/Dodgers week looks scary: Garcia/Peavy Wainwright/Floyd Lynn/Sale Kershaw/Humber Billingsley/Danks That is if Danks is back on June 5. Hopefully the Sox go 9-3 before then, so that week isn't as important to go .500.

http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?p...&pid=458668 Danks' numbers aren't that bad. He still averages a K per game, but so do a lot of guys. OBP over .400. With his glove and probably better speed than Fukudome, he may be worth calling up soon.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 01:24 PM) De Aza actually worries me a bit long term, because he's a guy who's had serious leg injuries before. He worries me more short term. The Sox can't afford to lose him, and he plays a pretty high octane style in the outfield and on the bases. He's had a lot of painful moments this season already. I'm worried it's going to happen one of these days...a separated shoulder, a jammed finger, something like that.

I put in a vote for him, but I don't expect it to help much. If he doesn't start, oh well. He'll be there, and probably get 2 ABs.

Right now if you're Kenny, you just watch and enjoy. The AL playoff picture will have some texture once interleague play is over on June 24.
