It's a 4 run lead. I'd follow the Closer rules for Santiago. Put in Jones and see what he can do here.

 

I'd go with Thornton, as Indians have a ton of lefties coming up.

We don't have a scheduled offday forever. Saving Matty for a day makes some sense.

Its matty

Yea, tomorrow is a long way away . . .

Gasssssss

Balta, I do miss your "there's one"....with Santos from last year

Thornton's velocity is really up this game, at least against Hafner.

 

97.

Isn't tomorrow on off day ?

Yup. Unless they scheduled the makeup game for tomorrow? Which I have not heard.

 

Geezz Verlander going for a 1 hit shutout against the Rays. (Yet to a llow a run this season)

Ovahhhhhhh.

 

Time for the tigers.

 

Scherzer

Wilk

Porcello

Sweep. 3-2

Congrats to Danks for getting a victory early in the year.

Positively. Great game offensively. Ohman handled the lefties he faced. Thornton finished the game off. And no Verlander for us. Yes! Sweep of the Clevelanders! First time over .500

Wow, can't believe Verlander blew that game, 2-2 now, Rays threatening to go ahead.

Longoria ties it up.

SOX WIN OVER FIVE HUNDRED YES

Who else is impressed with the managing of Ventura so far?

 

I have to say it is quite nice to see a manager who knows how to fill out a lineup card on getaway day and make better choices with his bullpen. I know it has been a small sample size but I for one am happy with the current manager so far...but I am not surprised either. As much as I loved Ozzie's dictator attitude and swagger, it's nice to have a manager who has a brain and will make better decisions for us on a day to day basis.

Today was my first complaint...leaving Ohman in to face 2 guys from the right side out of 3 hitters (one, admittedly, switch).

If they do play this one, it's likely not to be much to watch anyway

:gosox1:

Lets be realistic. You can't spend the entire year using Ohman for one batter a game.

 

I think what was nice about today is they DID use him situationally to get the all important out. And then, because he was up by many runs, they decided to use him against further batters.

 

Ozzie --on his not so smart days-- might've done this in a tight ballgame. I'm glad Robin did it in one where he had a big lead.

They were up six at the time.

All Aboard!....for the "happy flight" back to Chicago. :gosox2:

Robin knows baseball and so did Ozzie Guillen. We won a World Series with Ozzie at the helm. I wouldn't be so quick to throw Guillen under the bus. They all say, and so did Ozzie, that managers are hired to be fired. Saying that though I like Robin Ventura
