hogan873 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Hopefully the Sox will win today...to hell with that. The Sox will win today. And, the Twins can't win today. 12:05 first pitch. Morel starting today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Well, if the Sox win today, they are 5 out - exactly where they were with 40 games left to play. Now it would be with 22 left to play. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 Yeah, things are not looking good. But, I still expect this race to come down to the last week of the season. Minnesota will lose a few games, and hopefully 2 or 3 are against the Sox. To be honest, I think it will be very tough to catch up to the Twins, but I won't stop cheering for them.

To be honest, I think it will be very tough to catch up to the Twins, but I won't stop cheering for them. Yeah, all the Sox can do is win as many as possible, and hope the Twins come back down to earth. As good a team as they may be, going on a 35-12 run is just absurd for ANY team. That's a .745 winning percentage over about 2 months' worth of games. Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An 8-2 road trip is nothing to sneeze about True, especially considering a sweep of the BoSox. We were spoiled by the sweep of Cleveland and Boston, so we were expecing the Sox to handle Detroit better. Regardless, 8-2 on a road trip is good. It's just a shame the damn Twins won't lose.

The Sox are going to have to dominate the upcoming homestand to make the season interesting, but today would be a good place to start the massive winning streak.

LittleHurt05 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) Porcello has been the Sox b**** this season, keep that s*** up today, make it an 8-2 road trip. If they can keep the deficit at 4-5 games back heading into next Tuesday, they at least will give themselves a chance to play their way back in the race.

GreatScott82 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 We can't afford to lose any more games. So yea- we BETTER win today. I don't know why but im clinging on life support right now. If we do sweep Minny- it can change everything. Here is what NEEDS to happen: Win today: Gain a half game. (5 games back) Sweep KC: Minny takes 2 of 3 in Cleveland. (4 games back) Sweep Minny: (1 game back) Minny then plays a tough Oakland team, while we play Detroit at home and I believe we can gain ground during this series as well. IM KEEPING HOPE ALIVE JUST LIKE IT WAS 2005! But it all starts with today. . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Can't wait for Morel to go 3/4 today with 2 doubles and makes a great defensive play, and then Ozzie sits him the rest of the weekend for Teahen...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 The Sox went on a 10 game road trip while the Twins played 9 at home. If after this trip the end result is a loss of .5 game and going 8-2 you can not ask for anything more. If the Twins play .900 ball all you can do is laugh and hope the Sox finish strong. My silver lining is I think thsi team will be really good next year. I hope they can get a .5 game today and one over the weekend and g ofrom there. The Twins are great at home but can be beat on the road.....let's hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
