What are the odds of the Sox recovering from a 4 game sweep, if it were to happen?

 

Feels like the entire season is on the line, but if Jenks can't be the closer anymore...it's pretty much history for us anyway.

 

The only hope is that the Twins have been equally worse in recent days, if not more abysmal.

The point about Jenks isn't just this game... The point is, when was the last time you saw him come out, and NOT allow at least one baserunner? Hell, he's gotten a couple saves this year where he's given up runs and squeeked out of it. He's not a dominant pitcher anymore, and he rarely, if ever, comes into the game, and doesn't allow a baserunner. Your closer shouldn't blow big games like this for you. He's got an ERA over four for f***'s sake.

Hanging sliders, here we come. Can someone go kidnap Dan Hudson so KW won't even consider trading him?

 

Basically we have dropped out pants and inserted our head for 3 games here. This is something we used to do with the Twins. Kick the ball around, no hitting, and late inning struggles by the pen. Hopefully we keep on the plan to transform this team in the offseason.

With games at Minnesota and then home vs the Yankees, there's a very legitimate possibility that we're sellers by the deadline.

And absolutely no hitting with RISP

What a swing of emotions over the course of four games...I was thinking we were just going to take off as a team like in 2003, but that was a pipedream to think this team could replicate the 2nd half of 2003 or that these Tigers are as vulnerable as those Royals were.
