bobryansson Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The board only allows 10 choices, so I had to pick between having 10-0 and 0-10 as choices. I refuse to even think of 0-10 as an option, whereas thinking a pipe dream of 10-0 is fun. On that note, I'm going to pick 6-4. Split in Boston, win each of the 2 other series.

BigEdWalsh Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I voted 7-3. I got my mojo workin'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeGone33 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 7-3 here also, I still believe there is no way Detroit is going to win this division. We got this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YonderLaroche Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 9-1... only 1 loss to Boston. Everyone else gets swept, we take lead in division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatScott82 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 2-2 in Boston 1-2 in NY 2-1 in Minny (yes i said it) 1-0 @ Wrigley = 6-4 Detroit's next 10 games: 3 @ Angels 4 vs Tampa 3 vs Cleveland. (playing decent ball) It will be important for the Sox to remian close during this road trip because after these next 10 games, Detroit closes the season playing 20 out of 29 games vs teams under .500. While the Sox play 16 out of 27 games vs teams over .500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) I have a feeling the results of the poll will change if we lose today's game to the s*** O's which we could do on a Sunday day game. 1-3 in Boston. 0-3 in NY 1-2 in Minnie for 2-8. The Cub game could go either way. My real hope is SOMEHOW 2-2 in Boston (odds of that just aren't good with Boston's home record and recent destroying of Detroit; why should we do better than a good Tiger team in beantown?) 2-1 in NY (beating a team 2 of 3 after they want to kick our ass for what we did to them in the Cell is not likely; plus the Yankees are damn good, especially at home. 2-1 in Minnie (Minnie's getting it back together finally in kicking KC's ass; we don't win in the dome). That would be a miraculous 6-4 and would likely keep us breathing depending on the Tigers' 10 games. Only way we can do 6-4 is with extraordinary pitching and average defense. We're not capable of great defense, but are capable of average. Edited August 23, 2009 by greg775 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiddleCoastBias Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I picked 6-4. I feel like we're definitely going to win the Boston series, maybe sweep. They've been playing pretty poorly lately, pitching has been off. I expect the Yanks to continue their tear, and the Twinks seem pretty confused. Optimistically, 7-3 if we get the sweep in Boston.

greg775 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Baconator, if we sweep in Boston you get the call of the year award. It just doesn't seem remotely possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I love the Sox, but the 09 version has been terribly inconsistent, leaning more bad than good. That said, I think we'll catch a win on Monday with the carmines coming off an emotional series, then go on a bad run. I think this will effectively do them in for this season, but one can dream.

MiddleCoastBias Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I like how today's game has progressed, the 'doom and gloom' has become more evident. We're coming back to win this in the 9th and we're going 6-4 in the next 10! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWhiteSoxinNJ Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The Sox aren't better then the 3 times we are playing, and we can't beat a bad O's team. This road trip will be the nail in the coffin for this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sin city sox fan Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 10-0 and we return home with the lead in the division! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco72 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The way things have gone this season, the Sox will play well (at least above .500) now that everyone is declaring them dead. I'm predicting 6-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 5-5. They've been a .500 team all year, so why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 4-6. Not bad, but certainly not good. I forgot if that sentence was meant to describe the upcoming road trip or the 2009 White Sox as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCSox Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I hate to say it, but 4-6 looks probable to me... 2-2 in Boston 1-2 in NY 1-2 in Minny (with the way they play there, 0-3 wouldn't be surprising) I hope I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what I was thinking. We get put to bed for the year on this roadtrip. The only thing we will debate is whether or not to shut Peavy down for the year.

SoxAce Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 5-5 probably.. but I'm leaning towards 6-4. We usually play well versus the good teams so I'm optimistic on that but I can't see us beating the Twins in the series though I think we can take 1 game.
