Bmr31 Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 If we dont win the next two games in Detroit, you can kiss this season goodbye. We have too much of an uphill climb, as it is. Minnesotas schedule is easy from here. The sox better win the next two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gotta play some pretty amazing baseball to win this division. I'm not sure if we can... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question is, will we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Im thankful that I missed the game tonight. I would of been screaming s*** at my TV, or going completely nuts on this message board. I dont have confidence in Garland tomorrow to get us out of this hole. Seems hes always good for giving up 4 or 5 runs, and Maroth is due for a good start. Although Im expecting Loaiza to do good for the finale. He needs an easy win before the upcoming stretch to build his confidence in the event of a bad start. If we do somehow get swept, chances are that we will drop out of first (possibly second). The worst possible scenario can only leave us 2 games out. Im not going to say their are alot of games left to make up, but there is 9 game homestand coming up. 4 of which are against Minn. Besides the Cleveland series next weekend, every remaining series left is against playoff contenders. Sox do well against good teams that aren't called the Mariners and maybe its better that we are facing these teams in the final month. Easier schedules will put more pressure on KC,MInn to win every series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem for Jon is that he'll get into early trouble and give up 2 or 3 runs then settle down the rest of the gm. It's gonna be important for him to get off to a good start and hold em down the 1st 3 or 4 innings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude ive been watching baseball long enough to know, if a teams in a pennant race at the start of september, and they get swept by the worst team in the history of baseball, and they have a much more difficult schedule than the other two teams, uhhh theyre going nowhere. If you havent, i suggest you just keep watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I disagree. With the exception of the M's (mainly because of Ichiro & the RH's they have) we play MUCH better against the better clubs in the AL than we do against the weaker. Many of you kissed them off when DET swept them, & they roared right back. As long as they remain healthy(Maggs?) I think they are very capable of winning the series that count the most : 2 vs KC, 2 vs MIN, 2 vs BOS, 1 vs NYY. They typically bring their A game vs those opp this year.

whitesox247 Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 (edited) I'm sorry but if we get swept by Detroit, the season is not over. We've bounced back before and we can do it again. The Twins are 29-27 against the central, thats damn awful, and they're only 1/2 game back. You can say they dont have heart or whatever but some fans dont give up on their team until they're eliminated, especially when they're tied for first place.

JUGGERNAUT Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Eh, it doesnt matter. The sox arent gonna get swept by the tigers anyway. Anything's possible in Comerica. You can't win it with the long ball there. You must manufacture runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmr31 Posted August 30, 2003 Author Share Posted August 30, 2003 Anything's possible in Comerica. You can't win it with the long ball there. You must manufacture runs. Its a nice theory, but only an excuse. The parks do not decide the outcomes, thats ridiculous. I did some minor research. The top two home run hitting teams in the AL did just fine in Detroit and Seattle(texas and Boston). In fact their records on the road reflect what you would expect. Combined those two teams are 5-1 in Detroit and 3-5 in Seattle. It has nothing to do with home runs, or the parks. It has to do with the sox being mental midgets and not preparing for lessor teams and not preparing for the time changes out west. End of story.
