Finish off the sweep tonight, then time to go back to tanking for a top draft pick.

 

 

Reed now with saves in 5 straight games. Any idea what the record is?

53 is my guess

Consecutive team games with a save

 

6 (2 tied)

Éric Gagné, Los Angeles Dodgers - May 16 through 22, 2003

Rod Beck, Chicago Cubs - August 30 through September 5, 1998

About last night. Whoda thunk that the Sox, miserable on the road and against the AL Central would go on the road and have their longest winning streak of the year against the AL Central ?

 

Not only that but all our hard luck starters each got a win in the past week. That couldn't have happened all season to many teams since no decisions are commonplace for starters even during win streaks.

Just goes to show ya that we got the horses for this race. Just need a few more jockey's to ride those studs to some victories a lot more often.

Gagne and Beck blew out their arms too.

They both were also very into foreign substances. Gagne the PEDs, Beck the booze.

Addison Reed only pitcher in MLB this year to record a save in 5 straight team games, first pitcher in franchise history to accomplish feat.

Since there's no thread from tonight's win, I'll use this file. NICE PITCHING again against the punchless Royals.

 

I'm going to the game Thursday which means Axe will pitch and we will lose. It looks bad for me having an enjoyable night with Shields on the mound. I can only hope my arch-nemesis Dunn can connect vs. Shields. We need to keep hitting bombs and it's Dunn time. We lose Wednesday without Viciedo's bomb. Need some home runs.

My guess is we lose 7-1 or even 7-0. I may see a shutout since we're trying for a sweep.

 

 

Lol I like how just a few weeks ago you were applauding the Royals for bringing in George Brett because he turned around the Royals, and now they're the punchless Royals because they lost to the Sox.

Look at their lineup. The loss of Cain has killed them as well as Moustakas being hurt. Getz is also not good. They've got a weak ass lineup right now especially when Butler and Gordon aren't going well. I'd like a sweep.

so freaking what, all you do is backpeddle and spin your arguments....look at our lineup, not much better.

If the Royals hired fan favorite Ozzie Guillen and traded for AJP right now, they'd be World Series favorites.

Sweep!! Beating KC makes me happy, wish the Sox could have done that last year though. Anyway, time to start losing again, the Cubs are making a run for the 3rd pick.

Reed with 6 saves in a row. Not too big of a deal with the off day Monday so he didn't have to pitch more than three straight days.

6 games in 7 days is a ton of pitching. Over those 6 days, Addison has thrown 88 pitches. In other words he has basically made a start over that time period.

Of course, he's also done 6 warmups.
