No lineups yet. Peavy vs Johnson. Trying to keep my game thread/games won streak going.

O/U on actual people in the seats: 1,000. Bundle up boys & girls

I'm not close enough to consider going anyway, but even if I were I'm not sure I'd take free tickets for tonight's game. Unless there's some kind of giveaway--then I'd consider going, watching Abreu bat once, and then leave.

im taking the under.

 

 

The Sox need to work Peavy over and frustrate him tonight

Loved Peavy but let's bomb him boys

Over. Don't forget the Boston Bandwagon is here.

36 degrees now forecast throughout the game.

 

Will feel like 30-32, actually expected to "warm" up a bit as the night goes on.

 

 

 

I'm not sure what is worse...having sub 10,000 attendance games, having 10-15,000 with the Red Sox in town and being 80-85% Boston Bandwagon fans or the fact that these games would have made the White Sox a lot more revenue on a weekend/May-August.

 

As it is, there's going to be articles written about the low attendance with Boston in town, in spite of the weather factor.

I can't wait to get to another game but no chance in hell I'm going tonight.

 

Anywho, regardless of the result it'd be very nice to see Johnson's stuff improve from his 2 previous outings tonight.

I just got a call from my ticket rep that the UD is closed and they're reassigning to 100 level.

Lets hope Johnson bounces back or at least gives us 6+ solid innings

Seeing his velocity improve would make me happy. Seems like he's been down 1-2 MPH on his fastball this year, so getting his stuff back would be a huge step in the right direction. If his struggles were to continue at that point, then you start to worry about him a bit. Right now, I'm more concerned with getting velocity on track than actual results.

I see 4 other games have been postponed due to weather tonight...wonder what the most single day postponements due to weather have been?

 

And the weather map looks like it's snowing there. yikes.

Let's go boys! Very cold game could benefit Johnson if he can throw strikes.

Lets go Johnson just need to be serviceable.

sawed off sizemore, control looks a bit better today.

He's thrown 4 pitches. Wait.

its a good sign when Flowers isn't sprinting all over the plate trying to catch his pitches.

He's starting to use a cutter. Hope he can use that as an effective pitch

Gawn!

great 1-2-3 inning, his control is much improved from his previous starts and he looks relaxed

Nice start for EJ.

Good inning. For those who have seen Johnson a lot, does he have any off-speed?? I feel like he throws two pitches that are only a small difference in speed. I noticed this his last outing as well
