May 6, 201510 yr Author Yeah, 29-49 now. We have the rotation well-aligned with Sale and Q and they're going with Simon/Lobstein, so NOT taking 2/3 would be pretty much unacceptable at this point.

May 6, 201510 yr This NEEDS to be a sweep. No, it doesn't. A series win is just fine. It's May 6th, the Sox dont need to make up for that 5 game skid all at once. Just win these series' and they'll be right in the thick of it a month and a half from now.

A large part of the problem with the Sox play is it appears they are trying to make 3 games up in the standings almost every night. This is beyond a marathon. Every team will go into a funk, unfortunately, all we have seen from the White Sox is a funk, so many have just assumed that is what they are.
May 6, 201510 yr With our top 3 starters going we need to sweep. Time for this team to nut up and gain back some ground.

If we sweep I'll be very happy! Probably pull a few Soxtalkers away from the ledge. But the Sox dont NEED to sweep. Good teams will beat good pitchers, and the Tigers are a good team.
May 6, 201510 yr Considering Q's last start vs. Detroit and Sale's last start in general I would be very happy with 2/3...we need to walk before we can run. That being said I feel 2/3 is necessary this weekend as well even though it's going to be a makeshift pitching rotation.

Too impatient and trying to do too much at once.
