June 10, 20169 yr Very impressed with MiGo as a 4th starter. He has been a rare pleasant surprise this year.
June 10, 20169 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 09:32 PM) The Sox and the Zack Attack!! I hate to do this to everyone, but if we take 2 of 3 from KC, we're back in business.
June 10, 20169 yr That is a relief. Please put this wretched stretch behind you and avenge the recent shaming in KC.
June 10, 20169 yr We get five hits but we win. Finally. This actually was our winning formula earlier in the year. It's unhealthy to just get five hits, of course, but it was enough. Actually our only hope of having a productive bullpen now appears to be what happened tonight. Nate has to suck it up and emerge as a consistent four out guy late in games we happen to lead. And Robertson has to get the save. The other relievers, it'd be nice if they could suck it up and get an out if Robin calls on them. Frankly tonight's game feels like one of those 60 you are going to win in a season no matter what. I'll take it though. That line smash to end the game ties the game if Melky doesn't get a proper read on it. Thanks, Melky. Now ... gulp, the Royals come to town with a 7-game losing streak. Let the craziness begin. If we actually had some brass balls, we'd sweep them and suddenly have a 4-game win streak and they'd have a 10-game losing streak. However ... those that know me KNOW my prediction is KC 3 games, Chicago no games. That actually 'might' get Robin fired after Hahn's statements today. GO SOX! It seems like I hate them but my 100 dollar mlb.com subscription says otherwise.

But seriously, kick those choochy Royals while their down. Enough of this losing vs the AL Central crap. Man up!
June 10, 20169 yr Gonzalas has pitched well for the Sox. An unexpected positive development. First win by the '5th starter' this season and was badly needed. More wins please. Mark
June 10, 20169 yr That was his first individual win since last July 25th....a little more than 10 months. Well deserved, bullpen has messed up quite a few of his games.
June 10, 20169 yr QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:29 AM) Yeah Gonzalez has been earning his spot, hasn't he? One bright spot... Yeah he definitely has. He had a bit of a rough going in his first start but since has put a 2.83 ERA with a 1.200 WHIP. Can't expect anything more out of a guy that we picked up for a song.
