chw42 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:34 PM) We just need to pound Volquez tomorrow. Because the Royals are going to jump on Danks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:35 PM) This will probably be our downfall really abysmal, for a team that has started slow traditionally. Of course, when we've started fast it usually meant we were a playoff team. Oh well, probably doesn't mean anything, shouldn't overthink it.

greg775 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Apr 9, 2015 -> 04:25 AM) I can see people getting upset. It still looks like the Sox of 2014 playing games 163, 164. Yeah, that's what bums me out as well as being doormats vs. the Royals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, when we've started fast it usually meant we were a playoff team. Oh well, probably doesn't mean anything, shouldn't overthink it. I dunno not only did they lose they lost in pretty much the exact way everyone worst cased before the season. Offense is solid but not elite and this pitching and defense? Hell this is with the top of the rotation, granted sans Sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) 3-1 (end of 2013) 13-6 2-0 Royals have won 18 of their last 25 head-to-head meetings. 72% Probably lower than the betting odds going into tmrw afternoon's game with Danksie. The Royals ALSO won 10 of their final 12 games against the White Sox in 2012 (when the Sox desperately needed those wins). All the White Sox needed was 6-6 or 5-7.

flavum Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Danks- 16 career starts vs KC 7-0, 2.43 ERA 10 starts at KC 4-0, 1.73 ERA How does he only have 16 career starts? Twins- 27, Cleveland and Detroit- 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 09:59 PM) Danks- 16 career starts vs KC 7-0, 2.43 ERA 10 starts at KC 4-0, 1.73 ERA How does he only have 16 career starts? Twins- 27, Cleveland and Detroit- 22 Post-surgery? I would imagine that the specific 2009-2011 the numbers looked a lot better...Danks was shaky, especially to end, in 2008. Could be wrong and he just has their number... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) I am almost dreading*** the game tomorrow. Hopefully Soto will be a lucky charm or something Edited April 9, 2015 by BigHurt3515 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/batvspitch/_...8508/john-danks Hosmer is the only one in the entire line-up to put up an OPS approaching 800ish against Danks. The rest of the Royals have been terrible against him. At least, up until tmrw afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerksticks Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 We got some really nice pieces. Hang in there boys. Royals SP doesn't scare me and they have no thunder and they pitched a million innings last year. The man'll pitch next week. I'm excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 If the Sox stink this year I'd be all for changing to an organization that keeps firing managers every 2-3 years til we get the next superstar skipper. I mean I worshiped Ozzie and was loyal to him, but I'm not in the mood to be that loyal to Robin, even though I like his interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
