Let's

G!

Sweep here would be HUGE, not to mention it would mean making for a 5-5 road trip (which is not a bad showing). Then come home from that, to face Detroit.

 

I still like two goals for the Sox by the ASB: over .500 and in 2nd place. If they can do both, I'd feel pretty good about this club's chances.

I'd feel even better if Dunn started hitting the ball with authority. That happens and I'm sold that we will take this division.

Good Lord that would nice.

I like the fact he is taking more walks. It means he is swinging at less bad pitches. The next step it to start hitting the pitches to hit.

Dunn 3 HR day

Can he hit some opposite field high flys over the monster. Or some cheap home runs in right field. I'd love to see Dunn have an awesome night. I do however realize that Wakefield is pitching. In the past I think as a team we have done well. I know Konerko hits him well enough. Can Dunn and others hit the knuckler. If so we can sweep!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dunn 3 HR day

Hell I would be happy with 1.

No Rios in the lineup. A birthday gift, with a bow on top.

Happy B-day RV23...........Hopefully a sweep is a 2nd present for you.

Dunn is strong enough to sit back on the knuckler and flip it off the monster kind of like hitting a softball.

This is when I miss Aaron Rowand.

The key it to hit it before it breaks. Move up in the box and make solid contact.

if it's low let it go, if it's high let it fly

Or swing so hard he'd fall over.

 

I think the Sox, especially Konerko, have had pretty good success against Wakefield in the past.

is humidity a friend or foe to the knuckler? Cuz it's humid today in beantown.

Friend, gives more resistance to the laces I believe. Dry air is smoother for the ball to go through.

Can we sign Frank for the day? He crushed Wakefield and had a three home run game off him way back when. Anyway, with Wakefield pitching and Saltalamacchia catching, we better be running all day long. Wakefield obviously slows throw and takes time to deliver it, and Saltalamacchia has an AJ-esque awful arm. Pierre should run all day long, ditto for Sexy, Lilli, Viz and Bacon.

So you're telling me Dunn has a .500 average against Wakefield and hits nothing but HR's? I like the sound of that.

I'd take him over Dunn right now.
