May 16, 200520 yr The Sox, obviously, are sitting at a record of 27-11. With 124 games to go, if they played .500 ball from here on out, they would finish with 89 wins. That's playing .500 ball!!!! I'm optimistic. I, just truly believe that they may regress some, but will play well above .500. Am I way off here? Tell me what you think.
May 16, 200520 yr It's weird - everything about this team screams "85 wins" to me, but now that they've jumped out to the fast start, without the meat of the order hitting all that much, and with Big Frank probably coming back right after the first round of Interleague play, I can see this team in the low-to-mid 90's. Barring, of course, the annual catastrophic injuries to the exact players they can least afford to lose.... PLEASE not this year.....

Barring, of course, the annual catastrophic injuries to the exact players they can least afford to lose.... PLEASE not this year..... Injuries probably should be the biggest concern. But, you know Kenny, never afraid to make the trade to get what they need. I'm enjoying this now, but because of the fast start, even 95 wins is only 6 games over .500 from here on out. I think it's very reachable.
May 16, 200520 yr I dont know, I just have a feeling Big Frank is on a mission this year......lets hope my premonition is right

May 16, 200520 yr I'll be happy with going a little over .500 for the rest of the way, should probably be just good enough to make the playoffs.
