I've figured it out assuming everybody pitches every 5th game.

Sox will face Mussina in game 4 or the Yankee series

Sox will face Cliff Lee on the last day of the season vs the Indians

Sox will miss Meche and Grienke in the Royals series. (Huge break to miss their 2 best starters in a 3-game series)

Sox will miss Liriano in the Twins series.

Sox will face Verlander and Rogers in the Tigers series. (Both are having shitty years. Rogers has been tough on the Sox. We've handled Verlander)

Beardown, I understand what you're trying to do, but analyzing pitching matchups for anything more than say 6 days from now is useless. Cliff Lee could get hurt, or the rotation be flipped or whatever. Same thing with Liriano. The Tigers sure didn't figuring on facing Lance Broadway on Saturday, but thats probably whats gonna happen because of the doubleheader yesterday. Rainouts, extra inning marathons, injuries, all that stuff affects the starting rotation. It is WAY too early to say the Sox will miss Liriano and face Cliff Lee 3 weeks from now.

I'm not so sure that the White Sox will miss Mike Mussina when they visit Yankee Stadium for their last visit next week, let alone missing out on the Twins' Francisco Liriano in the Metrodome during the Southsiders' upcoming 10 game roadie...I wish the Sox didn't have to face Roy Halladay tonight, but that's the hand they've been dealt.
