mreye Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I think I'd be disappointed with a split. We need to go up there with a chip on our shoulder and kick some ass. Show them who's boss! They've owned us the last few years and did last weekend as well. We need to come out of there up 2 games or tied for 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I would call a split, a win. Yeah you want to win the series, but going up to that hellhole against a team that always finds a way to win, not losing the series is the most important thing. We need to be winning the series at HOME. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be winning the series at HOME. But, do we get any "momentum" with a split? I think not. We've got Texas and Anaheim following. ON the other hand, I'm VERY happy with our series record on the season of 7-3-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 A split would be a split, and a very nice result. I really wish we didn't pound out 15 runs yesterday, it seems like it always takes a team 2 or 3 games to recover and score more than 2.

SnB Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 A split wouldn't be a win, but then it wouldn't be a loss.......a split's a split. But in this case, I'd be satisfied w/ a split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 A split at the Metrodome where we have done so poorly the last few years would be acceptable, if not ideal. It would be nice to gain a game on them if not two by the end of the weekend though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSox30 Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Split=lost. ONLY BECAUSE we lost the series at home. We need to prove that we can beat those idiots at their house. This is a statement series and if we dont take three i'll be very worried for the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 The way our offense was hitting yesterday (those 2 out RBI’s) we have a pretty good chance of having a split. Yes, I know the Sox have done poorly after scoring more than 9 the day before but these guys can once again hit the ball tonight. Just look at our batters. We have a good chance of winning here. You never know, we might end up winning this 4 game series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Minnesota = mediocre team Split = unacceptable If Sox are no longer willing to endure being the LAUGHING STOCK of MLB, I suggest they start beating Minnesota, with ease and often. Or they can remain selfish, stupid losers they've been since the 1st half of 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnesota is missing: Ortiz Mauer Hawkins Mays Stewart Menkevic Pirzinski Guardado Milton Koskie Kielty Also, Hunter was on DL a few weeks ago. Santana coming off off-season surgery. Sox can't take 3 of 4, might as well forfeit the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they have played above their abilities so far this year and we have not consistently played to ours. I'm just not ready to call it a season if we don't take 3 of the games this weekend. My calendar still shows almost 4 and a half months left in the season, and a dozen games left with Minny after Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I want a sweep.....seriously So do I but tough as the Twinks are I think the very best we'll do is 3 of 4 & we've really gotta be on the ball to get that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
