Yoda Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 The Sox are sending the right guy in the mound (in my opinion). Garland has done such a good job in the first 3 or 4 innings. After that, he collapses in where Judy comes out of nowhere. I hope Garland does ask for advice from both Garcia and Buehrle about their appearances against the Twins because today is a big game. Why do I say that? Because when was the last time we swept a team? Pitching matchup MIN: LHP Johan Santana 6-4, 4.38 ERA in 2004 0-1, 21.00 vs. CWS in 2004 1-3, 7.94 lifetime vs. CWS CWS: RHP Jon Garland 5-5, 4.84 ERA in 2004 1-0, 7.71 vs. MIN in 2004 3-4, 4.30 lifetime vs. MIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Santana has been red hot lately, we need a big game out of Jon. Should be a real nice game to end the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Damn dude, don't jinx it. Everytime it seems like we have the Twins number, they come back on us. Remember last year when we kicked their ass to start the season? They owned us when it counted. NEVER, NEVER count the Twins out. Leave the brooms at home.

moochpuppy Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Garland actually hasn't been that good in the 4th inning having an ERA near 5.10 and he is absolutely horrible in the 6th (ERA over 8.00). I hope the pen is ready tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddoz11 Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 I believe the last sweep we had was April 13-15 against the Royals. I do believe we will sweep the Twinkies today (even though Santana has been pretty much lights out). Probably a 3-2 or 4-2 victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And If I’m not mistaking, that’s been the only team we have swept this year. I just want to see our winning streak getting longer and not have to start all over. I’m all for W #5 Let’s start July with a W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but we usually hit Santana hard.

MinnesotaSoxFan Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 If Jon goes to 5 innings, we could send Rauch in there to go about three innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
