macsandz Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I'm thinking Sox split by taking one of two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Well I think they're going to win both of them so we have all grounds covered (unless someone is VERY sure that one or both of the games will be rained out). In case you were wondering, the Royals pitching is really, really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 What would be wrong with a split in KC? Nothing. Come home 3-2, and have a 6-4 or 7-3 home stand. That would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Floyd and Buerhle going for the Sox is pretty good odds for us. But, I never figured we would go 162-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEdWalsh Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Still holding out hope for 161-1 though. Sweep the f***ing Royals!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royals lineup can rake. Hochevar is garbage and Francis is a soft tossing lefty. I'd be quite surprised if they don't score enough runs - 4-5 at a minimum for both, and I'm expecting closer to 6-8.

WCSox Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I have a bad feeling about our bullpen. Other than that, I'm still on the optimistic side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that feeling too. This bullpen is one that is going to have to be managed well. I'm not sure Ozzie has that in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think Linebrink works better in this analogy. MacDougal couldn't throw strikes, so if he came in, it was pretty much a given that he'd walk 2 hitters per appearance. Ohman hasn't had that problem. His problem has been throwing balls over the fat part of the plate, which was also Linebrink's problem.

It's way too early to bust that stuff out. Everyone realizes we have 159 games remaining right? Even the best teams of all time lose a decent amount.
