Just don't get swept and no-hit

Getting swept pretty well forces a sell.

Gonzalez vs Arrieta, yeah not the greatest matchup for us

We got Jacob Turner pitching on Wednesday at Wrigley against his former team.

The USCF return of the Hawkeroo. I think Paulie is throwing out the first pitch.

 

Beat these losers.

I forgot Hawk was doing these games. Hopefully the Sox have a walkoff win because those calls are when Hawk is at his best.

Will be there, hoping the Konerko stuff is cool

Before the game, they run a couple commercials on the big board at USCF. One is for the Big Hurt Brewery in Berwyn.

 

Why does he have it in Berwyn? He should have it in Bridgeport. It doesn't matter if Big Hurt Brew sucks, the place would be a gold mine.

Fresh off the heels of a 4 game split with Detroit that feels like the Sox got swept. I'd say it's time to find a rock and hide under it, but that was back in May this year.

They really should move Turner into long relief for this series and give the start to Ranaudo. He definitely deserves a shot over Turner with the way he's pitched this year.

Hawk really dislikes the schedule makers at MLB for scheduling these Crosstown games on weeknights instead of weekends. You can expect Hawk to bring up that topic multiple times during tonite's telecast, LOL!

I'm torn. The good news is, I don't think there's any amount of games we can win which would cause Hahn to change how he feels about this team. I still am a little worried that winning this series will hurt our rebuild chances.

This.

I'm ok if we sweep this series and then play .200 baseball for the rest of the year, thus securing a top draft pick

I hate "Step Up" just as much as I hated "All In".

We should unload everybody tonight and then beat the cubs. Perfect

The crosstown is annoying. It doesn't have the impact anymore. The thing I miss about Ozzie is his complaints about Wrigley. I'm not sure I want to watch because there is some envy what is going on at the North Side. Their front office seems like a 180 compared to the Sox. Some of the offers in their trades will probably never happen again. The Twins fired their GM and are looking to the Cubs organization for a replacement. Do you think they might consider KW?

Ranaudo IS getting the start Wednesday now.

Ask and you shall receive.
