IM nervous for this series, i know theyre pitching isnt great but you can throw pitching out the window for this series. I dont know if our guys will try and just go for the homerun swing at every ab beacuse of the thin air and they havn't had experience at coors.

I have had that same feeling about this series especially with our two best groundball pitchers (MB AND JG) not pitching.

We'll win the first two games of the series and then let them have the third one.

Of course I would not have it any other way.

Does anyone else actually think we should be playing the Rockies. But that's what interleague does, matches you up with teams like that.

I wish they would go back to the Central vs Central type match ups. By and large they are way better than vs the teams outside of your region.

Why shouldn't we be playing Colorado? I don't see why so many people are opposed to playing interleague. Especially with all of the AL Central(minus the Twins) being crappy you at least get to see some better baseball. It's no worse than regular play honestly. I can't honestly see the difference or the bad part of interleague play.

That's what I wish too. I don't mind playing the Cubs or Reds one bit. And I miss playing the Brewers just like old times. I can see why they wanted to go out of the region so that the Giants and Dogders could play the Yankees, and other games like that. But still I just prefere the Central vs. Central also.

the homerun swing is actually a bad idea at Coors, that outfield is so spacious that if you just go for the gaps the homeruns will come naturally there.

thats what im saying the sox players might think o.k lets swing for the fences all day and they might have trouble getting runs.

Maybe Marte will give up some runs.

Garcia and Duke scare me at Coors.

I second that.

Garcia and Duke scare me at Coors.

they scare me anywhere

Freddy Garcia starting and Shingo will likely be used out of the bullpen. Get ready for the longball!

It is going to be pathetic watching Uribe and Cruddy swinging at everything a mile out of the strike zone. They need no incentive to pull for the fences, and this park will only make them do that more often. Pathetic ....really.

Meh, what's the difference? It's not like Crede gets on base anyways. He either hits a homer or does nothing. He may as well be swinging for the fences at Coors.

Probably just as easy to homer at US Cellular than it is at Coors. I think the team will continue to play their game and receive good pitching. I hope that we win all three because I am driving to Denver just to see the Sox play. Only regret I have is that Frank will most likely just be a pinch hitter. I'll be fine with that too, if he puts one out.

Enjoy your trip and be sure to give us your first hand impressions of everything when you can.

Uribe has spent enough time in Colorado to not be tempted by it. He will just continue to be a free-swinger.

 

Crede is in for his defense which was pretty average today. Any hits he gets are just a bonus.

Ugly ugly series forthcoming with our flyball pitchers in Coors.

Also a burnt out pen and a generally tired team.

 

Regardless, Colorado isn't good and 2 of 3 is a MUST

Colorado is respectable at home. I wouldn't be surprised if we lost 2 the way we play on the road.

Uribe still thinks he's in Colorado.

Long Ball Freddy+Coors= what do you think?

Road Ace Freddy = 3 runs MAX, don't care where the game is, as long as it's not at Comiskey.
