The Upcoming Yankee Series

This should be fun and a great early season test to show if the Sox can compete with what is looking like one of the top teams in the AL. The ballpark should be packed for all 4 games. Really looking forward to seeing how both Cease and Kopech compete against a really tough lineup.

When Stanton and Judge are both in the lineup together that is a scary team. Gleyber Torres is becoming Mr. Walk Off. Judge  (10 HR) , Rizzo, 9 and Stanton, 7 make our top HR hitters look like little leaguers along with our fielding. Their starting pitching and bull pen have been really good.

But you're right ,should be fun for the Yankee fans.

I hope you're right about the ballpark being packed. It looks like there are alot of unsold seats for this series on ticketmaster.

The Yankees offense is obviously superior to ours right now. Hopefully that will change when we are at full strength down the road. More importantly, the Yankees are 2nd in MLB in pitching at 2.60 ERA and #1 in least errors 9 to our 26, which is last in errors per game.

Other than Kuechel, I am confident Cease and Kopech can step up for the challenge. The concern is our offense which needs to start producing! In the month of May thus far, two key leaders Abreu are 8-37/.216 and 1 home run and Grandal, 5-30/.167 with 0 doubles, 0 home runs and 0 RBI's. This is a huge problem when you consider they are the top two salaries on the Sox.

Finally the bullpen needs to be strong and consistent with no more imploding and giving up leads?

I hope the Sox are ready to step up to this major challenge and not embarrass themselves.

So fucking pissed I get kuechel on Saturday. I got prime seats. He better not fuck it up.

I'm also pissed about this. Going from planning to see Kopech and instead seeing Keuchel is a major letdown. I'll have to have an extra beer or two before heading into the park.

I find the weather forecasters struggle to get the daily weather right. Having said that, there is an 88% chance of rain Saturday. Hopefully prime seats have a roof over them.

Looks like it might just be rainy in the am. Might be chilly at night though, relatively speaking.
