GoSox05 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 We need a big game from Floyd. Very very big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 this matchup FAVORS a sox win, but who the hell knows how it'll turn out over/under for errors, i'll say is 1 i'll take over if they can play tight defense, and gavin can locate at least 3 of his 4 pitches, we should have a good game i think, livan just isn't very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 If things were going halfway decent for the Sox I know this call would be a no brainer, but there not and it isn't. However, if we win tonight we leave Minny guaranteed to still be in first place at the end of this 4 game set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsgoarow Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 We have won 4 of 7 games, lets win 5 of 8. Doesnt look so bad when you look at a stretch of more than 2 games now does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwolf68 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 If we let Livan Hernandez take first place from us, then what kind of hope is there, really? That guy is a stiff. I'm so glad they haven't replaced him with Liriano or we may be 4 or 5 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy is a stiff. I'm so glad they haven't replaced him with Liriano or we may be 4 or 5 out. simply put, if our hitters have an intelligent hitting approach to Livan tonight, we'll clobber him. we've shown that we can time his slow pitches and score a lot of runs on him. there's no reason why these guys don't come into tonights game with the mindset that they can hit him around you'll know from the 4th inning or so how this game is going to be IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Not only is this a big game for the team, but, I think its a potentially defining moment for Gavin. A solid game here does a lot for his confidence, and the team's confidence in him. A pummelling by the Twinkies could spell a lot of trouble. Go out and get 'em, Gavin.

Go and and get 'em, Gavin. i agree, you can't have a game that's as close to playoff road atmosphere as tonight's game, it's that simple you have a team at home who is one win away from overtaking 1st place, and doing it against the team that currently holds that spot this game will be huge, the crowd will be insane, I hope Gavin can shut these guys down and keep us in 1st place after this series is over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Huge game for Floyd as you said. We could use a quality start and rock their starter who has not exactly been great this season. Our pitching has been horrible of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have 3 in KC, and need to win one or two there, to call it a success, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 03:42 PM) Fixed for you. We still have 3 in KC, and need to win one or two there, to call it a success, IMO. We'd need to win at least 2 in KC to call it successful IMO. That would make us 5-5 on the trip (assuming we win 1 of 2 here in Minny) and in a year where seemingly every team other than the Angels has been bad on the road, i would be okay with that.

Whitewashed in '05 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Lets go Gavin. Show us your dominant form when we need you tonight. I take these losses as bad as anyone, but there are plently of games left in the season and were not playing good right now. Time to turn it around and get on a roll. Lets go guys!
