chw42 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 (edited) Let's hope we can be 4 games up on the Tigers by the end of the day. That, along with their injuries and tough schedule should make this a two team race pretty soon. Edited July 25, 2010 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Zack Greinke for giving the Royals a chance to at least win one game this series. Sox really need to dominate this home stand, Twins have Seattle coming to town this weekend.

caulfield12 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AreX...uerhealth072710 Mauer playing through pain...the question is how much it will affect him the next 8 years of that contract? Bonderman Considering Retirement By Tim Dierkes [July 28 at 9:16am CST] Jeremy Bonderman is seriously considering retiring at age 28 after the season, reports Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press. Bonderman will be a free agent, and he could hang up the spikes if he doesn't get an acceptable offer to return to the Tigers or sign with a team somewhat near his Pasco, Washington home. Bonderman says he's saved a lot of money, so he has the ability to retire. He's earned over $40MM in his career, most of it coming from a four-year deal signed in '06. Bonderman should find interest if he decides to continue pitching. He's shown good health, decent peripherals, and flashes of his former velocity this year.

greg775 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 What is with the Twins? Is it that they were constructed to just be better than anybody in the Central? Year after year they are champs. Their early exits in the playoffs never seem to demoralize them or take away their momentum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been on fire since your guy Bobby Jenks blew the big hairy one against them in the finale of the series there. Well that, and they're playing some weak competition right now.

And the Twins lost 2 of 3 at home to Cleveland starting this stretch too. The only thing the Twins have done a lot better than us in is divisional games, and most of our divisional games were early on when we absolutely sucked.

Benchwarmerjim Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 you guys got to beat up on the Os and weaker NL teams earlier in the year. Things are evening out now, and it shows the Sox and Twins are pretty much even teams recordwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
