Stay hot. Kill the Twins. Coast to playoffs with 98 wins.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 05:43 PM) I thought the same thing. Definitely thought they would of gone Pavano, Liriano to start the 2nd half. Maybe the pitching match ups line up a certain way for them in the upcoming weeks this way. Pavano started Sunday. So they were not going to pitch him on 3 days rest.

Bright sunshine to start the games the next few nights. Could be tough hitting early on.

Torres pitched two innings in the AAA All Star Game. Got the first 5 guys out, then single, walk, single. One run scored.

Sorry if this is posted somewhere else, but Carlos Torres is starting the AAA All-Star Game tonight. It's on MLB Network. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/news/ar...b&fext=.jsp

Based on the schedule that's set up, are you comfortable with Hudson getting these 14 starts: 7-19 at Sea 7-25 at Oak 7-30 vs Oak 8-4 at Det 8-10 vs Min 8-15 vs Det 8-21 at KC 8-27 vs NY 9-1 at Cle 9-7 at Det 9-12 vs KC 9-18 vs Det 9-25 at Ana 9-30 vs Bos

Bout time for Bellamy.

He's not even going to be stretched out enough in the minors to start in the majors. Don't be daft. If he comes up, he'll be a situational lefty reliever. That's his role in 2010. In 2011, he'll start.

That's not going to happen with Sale. Not a chance in hell he starts a game for the Sox this year.

Sale got roughed up a little. Looks like the defense let him down, too. Bellamy needs to be moved up. Why he's not in Birmingham by now, I have no idea.

Sox have 14 left with Detroit, not 10.

Law is off, but the proof will be in the last 75 games. With 14 against the Tigers and 13 against the Twins, the division is in their control. The best team will come out on top.

First place and the Sox are under .500 against AL opponents (34-35), and AL Central opponents (16-17). That'll change for the better, but kind of interesting I think.

To each their own...I'm glad Greinke is on the shelf today. Especially with Hudson as his opponent. That could have gotten in his head.

Ozzie got it right. http://twitter.com/MDGonzales/status/18282486622 After the break: 1. Danks 2. Floyd 3. Buehrle 4. Garcia 5. Hudson

I'll still take my chances with Lerew. It may loosen Hudson up, too.

Well, maybe it's ok with Konerko sitting today. Last time he faced Lerew he went 0-4, and struck out 3 times. Enjoy Anaheim, Paul.

I want Paul in there now that Lerew is starting.

Pierre -- LF, Vizquel -- SS, Rios -- CF, Quentin -- DH, Kotsay -- 1B AJ - c Jones -- RF Viciedo -- 3B Beckham --2B So Paulie gets a day off because he made the all star team. That sucks.

Greinke scratched as a precaution. Shoulder. Lerew starts!!!

Scott Kazmir got shelled tonight. He goes to the break with a 6.92 ERA.

s***. I wasted all that time.

QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 10, 2010 -> 09:28 PM) I'm too lazy to look them up, but I'd love to go back and read some of those "our season is over, we suck, we'll never catch the Twins" posts that cluttered the board before we got rolling. I'm sure I had a few of them, but I really don't want to hear from the ultra-positive "it's early" group. The fact is the Sox were in a bad spot, and it's incredible that they have won 24 of 29. Let's just be thankful and enjoy the second half. 27 games with Minnesota and Detroit. Buckle in. It's going to be fun.
