Peavy goes tomorrow against Derek Lowe

Every time the Cubs go on a winning streak over the years, I would always think of the Major League Its all coming together music.


I bet Indians fans do as well. Rag tag bunch of misfits

Agreed Boyd. No reason why they shouldn't take two of these. They'll win the Peavy start, and I will hold out hope that we'll see good Gavin in this series. I have no faith in Danks anymore. You just don't know what you're ever getting...kinda like how I felt every time Vasquez or Contreras took the bump.

Sox sweep the Tribe and take 2 of 3 in Tampa.

Then have a losing homestand against the Mariners, Blue Jays, and Astros :(

I'm actually more concerned about losing the Peavy start. Lowe has pretty good numbers, and as a sinkerballer, once he gets through the first inning or 2, he's a tough guy to hit off of...especially for the Sox.

I don't find anything very impressive about the Indians, yet they are playing well and are in 1st place. Why are they a good team?

They have guys that can hit. Just no one with a big name. Their pitching staff isn't bad. It helps that the Tigers are underperforming for the last 30-some games...I think I heard Gammons mention that they're 11-22 in their last 33 games.

Don't sleep on Gomez. He has great stuff. I will definitely be on the Tribe tonight.

I'm going to be there tonight. I really don't relish the thought of Quintana getting his brains beaten in like most of their minor league call ups seem to get. Gomez does have great stuff, though.

Should be an avg of 30k at the stadium this weekend. Great weather all weekend, including mid-90's on Sunday.

Make it happen, Sox fans.

30K? Let's not get too crazy...

Sox lose 2 of 3 as Sunday is a guaranteed loss because the Speeps family will be in attendance.

DB, why not? I don't see why you couldn't get 20-25 tonight, and 30-35 over the weekend.

Speeps and Jr will be the new Billy Ligue's...

Not likely.

We don't cavort with the riffraff. Suite for a hot day with an infant.

My post was made in a mocking tone. Drawing 30,000 on a beautiful holiday weekend should not be something to brag about.

The lineups are in for the first of the weekend series, complete with each player's batting average. Have your pencils & scorecards ready.

CLE:
17 Shin-Soo Choo RF (L) .268
22 Jason Kipnis 2B (L) .260
13 Asdrubal Cabrera SS (S) .300
41 Carlos Santana C (S) .252
4 Jose Lopez 3B (R) .286
47 Shelley Duncan DH (R) .196
33 Johnny Damon LF (L) .156
35 Casey Kotchman 1B (L) .222
2 Aaron Cunningham CF (R) .208


Jeanmar Gomez does the chucking for the Indians. He's 3-2 with a 3.19 ERA.

CHW:
30 Alejandro De Aza CF (L) .283
15 Gordon Beckham 2B (R) .204
32 Adam Dunn DH (L) .239
14 Paul Konerko 1B (R) .384

10 Alexei Ramirez SS (R) .201
5 Orlando Hudson 3B (S) .221


Lefty Jose Quintana starts in the place of John Danks tonight for the White Sox. In just 5 1/3 innings of relief back on May 7th in Cleveland, he held the Indians to just 1 hit and no runs during Game 1 of the Sox/Indians' day-night DH at (Not So) Progressive Field, both won by the Tribe.

Dont know if I heard it correctly but during Rangers pre game interview with Stone, Im almost sure Stone said that Beckham's .204 average isn't really hurting the Sox in the 2 hole.

Ya know it's really too bad the White Sox have the worst farm system in the history of the world that they're not able to call a guy up from the minors (Jose Quintana) to give the team a boost when needed.
