White Sox loser

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but this schedule, combined with this weather, has been brutal for us thus far. Cleveland is a very tough team, we never usually do well at Oakland, we had to face Santana already and we have other series coming up against contenders (@ det, det, LAA). The only easy games we have this month are the two @ KC and the three at home vs. Tex, and there's no guarantee either will be pushovers.

 

If we can get out of this month at .500 I think I'll be pretty pleased.

 

In May, we have 15 Chicago games in a row against a lot of soft opponents:

 

vs. KC

vs. NYY (not soft, I know)

@ cubs

vs. Oak

vs. TB

 

That is a pretty juicy part of the schedule where we should be able to go 10-5. Three of those teams just aren't very good (I know, I know, rays beat santana and bonser in the dome).

 

In June, we have four NL series in a row against these teams:

 

Hou, @ Philly, @ Pit, and Florida. I like our chances there to go maybe 8-4 and pick up some games there as well.

 

And additionally, our second half schedule features 10 KC games, and after an extended road trip to open the second half, we play 35 of our final 62 games at USCF and we don't even ever leave the midwest in september.

 

In other words, I think as long as we can survive this early part of the schedule, it should be easier going as we move along.

We need to get the job done against teams like the Royals, Mariners, Orioles, etc. Whoever can beat the teams they're supposed to beat will win this division.

I don't care what team we're playing but we need to beat the bad pitchers that we face on a regular basis. Sowers, Bryd, etc. We can't keep getting shut down by no namers as well as the Santanas and Sabathias out there.
