why can't we get that guy home from 3rd with one out?

I'm a heck of a lot happier about the way Mark is pitching today. The hitting is gravy.

No doubt.

What do I win for picking the over for DPs hit into?

More pitching from Mark would be nice. The real question though, is whether Mark has actually improved or is this a one time deal?

I hope he isn't pulling a contreras.

If he has in fact turned something around (AJ catching him again), it's absolutely huge, cause then we have two legit starters.

At this point, it's only one game. Right now I'm just thinking "fluke." I've seen this game before: Vazquez @ Toronto and Jose vs. Detroit a couple of weeks back.

I hope he's pulling an August '05 - May '06 Contreras

I don't think we'll be able to tell which Buehrle we'll get the rest of this year. Obviously, I'm just hoping for the best each start out there, but I'm not going 100 pct either way on the Buehrle bandwagon.

I agree, he needs to do it again, but he has to start somewhere. It's nice it's against the Twins. It's also great that we have our best D out there to prevent unearned runs.

He has a good gameplan. Today he's throwing some fastballs up, but making sure they are out of the strike zone. An 88 MPH fastball up is very tempting to hitters but still not easy to catch up to if it is well located. It reminds me a lot of how he pitched in that 90 minute game against Seattle.

When you have non-strikeout pitchers, defense is overrated.

to the bottom of the 7th

Buerhle continues to cruise.

Rolling.

I'm glad Buehrle is having a quickie. Not only is it good for him and the sox and us as fans, it gives me some more time to play madden

I'll believe Mark is back when he starts consistently getting ahead of hitters again. But this start is a HUGE step forward in my opinion, especially with the way Count is struggling to deal with Fidel's illness.

I'm pretty sure you only meant that last part.

We both know it's not a permanent change so I can't get too excited about it. We might see this unit out there once next week.

Silva's gone.

I hope we get the can't find strike zone reyes again!
