fathom Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Still can't believe that Ford, McLouth and Teagarden played such a big role in this series. Now we know how Seattle felt having Flowers and Wise beat up on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 30, 2012 -> 01:11 PM) For a rookie pitcher who is 7-0 with a 3.20 ERA and averages almost a strikeout an inning for a first place team, Nate Jones gets an incredible amount of crap on this board. He's no HOFer, but he's been a lot better than could be reasonably expected. Wins/Losses for a middle reliever have to rank up there with blown saves for set up men as the worlds worst stats.

The odds a wild card team wins the extra game and then wins a best-of-5 has gone way down, and that will be proven over the next 10-20 years. So unless the Sox win the division, I really don't give them much of a chance anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Sox lose 3 of 4 in Baltimore at this stage of the season? Wow. I'd have never thought Kansas City would actually save the day against Detroit. Can the Royals actually sweep the Tigers? If Detroit as expected would have swept KC, I'm thinking most all of baseball would be preparing for a Detroit mauling of the Sox this weekend. Now it's just two floundering teams going at it. Anything can happen this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't make the playoffs, after being in first most of the year, its going to be real dissappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I should say Sox are floundering badly as a road team suddenly. Sox look like a very bad team on the road now. The O's just massacred Quintana.

Noonskadoodle Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Always seems we have to roll into Detroit on a tail end of a road trip. Hopefully they don't look as worn out/exhausted this time around. With Guthrie facing the Tigers tonight there is a very good chance we will be in Detroit tomorrow w/ a 2 game lead. Hopefully Peavy can come up big for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
