caulfield12 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) One thing's for sure, the Tigers are beating up the best team in baseball coming into this week and the Royals are looking tough, too. OTOH, Chris Sale hasn't been up to his 2012 standard, Dunn has been terrible until recently, Viciedo/Beckham/Keppinger/Floyd injured, and the worst-case scenario is we're 3 1/2 games behind KC and 2 1/2 behind the Tigers. That said, the next week is going to be really tough and being 5-6 GB the first week of May usually spells trouble, unless it's 2010, 2003 or 1983.

The Ginger Kid Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 27, 2013 -> 06:16 PM) We're now on to player #30 on the roster, and that's with 2 guys day to day as well. The best way to help this bench would be to hire Jesus and have him wave some hands over people. The Angels would never let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 More hitting there with RISP. Just what we needed...for Alex Rios to come back to earth. Dunn might be hitting, but Rios and Konerko aren't threats right now, so there's always something going awry with this line-up. Too many holes up and down to get runs consistently. Certainly not against elite pitchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we just won 3 in a row, but this has the makings of a very long season... It's just as likely we'll be right back at five games under facing Price and Darvish the next two.

Which is probably the right decision. I'd like Johnson to get more minor league seasoning. He's only pitched 31.0 innings at AA thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're really out of the division in the middle of the summer and the games are no longer as meaningful, then you can bring him up and given him starts the finally 2-3 months and set up things for 2013. Granted, it would be more FUN for us to watch anyone not named Floyd in the rotation, but that's not the criteria Hahn and Bell will choose to go with.

Plus Moore may just be the best pitcher in either league right now, so there's that... Coming back to win last night was huge. Like I said earlier, just win one of the next two and be content with it. Sox very well may be facing 3 of the top 4 Cy Young candidates this year.
