2-8, if that.

5-5 probably.. but I'm leaning towards 6-4. We usually play well versus the good teams so I'm optimistic on that but I can't see us beating the Twins in the series though I think we can take 1 game.

 

You absolutely shut down Peavy if we're more than 6 or 7 games out after the road trip. All reports indicate he's very uncomfortable on the mound, so why even risk him overcompensating for any soreness and messing up his mechanics? Same goes for Danks, as you can put some unusual torque on your shoulder when you can't guide the ball with your finger.

I think you quoted the wrong person. :P

I've already predicted but as an addendum ... if we go 3-3 at home versus the Royals and O's with a lot at stake, how in the heck can anybody predict better than .500 on this trip?

That stuff about playing to our competition doesn't cut it on the road.

5-5 would be a monumental miracle.

2-8 is rearing its ugly head at us.

Edited by greg775

i know sox play better against better opponents but i really cant see this sox team playing good right now.

floyd n danks r the only startin pitchers i really trust right now

 

 

n these guys sayin they gonna go 9-1 or 10-0 ...i really hope you guys r just messin around cuz no offense but its kind of a dumb thing to say right now

I said 5-5 because I can't be pessimistic and always hope for the best. I think this team will tease us till the very end. Even if the Sox do poorly so will Detroit.

Can you imagine if we'd have gone 6-0 versus KC and the Os? We'd be so pumped. But our passionless team didn't come close to that.

Those of you who say sweeps are not reasonable ... look at what the Twinks did to the pissant Royals over the weekend: Swept em in KC.

We should have at least won five of the six games. And we'd be so psyched.

I agree on the shutting down of Peavy at least if we go 2-8 and the Tigers go 7-3 or 8-2. s*** if the Twins sweep us, they'll be barreling past us as well. Shut him down if we don't excel on this trip.

I am guessing 4-7, 1 win at each site. .500 teams don't do any better than that on big boy road trips like this.

The Sox have played tough teams fairly well...in spurts. This road trip will probably be no exception. I would like to think they could go 7-3 or better, but I chose 6-4. If the road trip ends with the Sox 2 games or less out of first, it'll be good.

7-3. I was the 15th vote in that category...which made it 15.15%....me thinks that Becks has a HUGE road-trip and we come out smelling like a rose!! :headbang SADDLE UP SOX FANS!

well 12 people outta 106 are eliminated. this is getting extremely frustrating. a game under .500 so now we gotta turn it around.

Can I revise my prediction to 3-7?

 

I stand by my 2-8 which looks about right, but I truly wouldn't be shocked at 0-10. Would you?

So, only a few of us were right.. I was one of them.. sadly. But oh well, at least we NEVER have to go to the Metrodump again.

2-8.

 

Winner!

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 01:56 AM)
Winner!

Not only that, but got every series right.

I got it all right too. One win in Boston, said Yankees would sweep us and one win in Minnie.

Know your team.
