July 18, 200520 yr If there were any way for the White Sox to start out the second-half, this was the best. They have won 4 straight, sweeping the Indians, while adding three more games to their lead in the Central Division (an incredible 12 game lead). I pray this is a preview of what's to come. We sent a message by going into Cleveland and really just kicking their ass. The only game that was really within reach for the Indians was the opener, when Contreras dominated them. Our four starting pitchers really showed up in this series, and showed why the Chicago White Sox are the best team in baseball. I am anticipating good things from El Duque in his return, and starting to think that our need for another starting pitcher is not great enough to outweigh our need for a little more bullpen help. I also think, that if Joe Crede stays healthy, we are fine at 3B. I refuse to believe that there is not at least a .250 hitter in him, and if he can do that over the second half, stay healthy, and play good defense, we're fine at third. I am a little concerned with our SS situation, but not enough to warrant a huge deal. Anyway, this started out as a little praise of this team's 12 game lead, so let me just say "f*** YES," and "GO SOX!"
