Win 70 percent of Sale, Quintana and Rodon starts. Win 30 percent of the Danks and Latos starts and that's a 94 win team. With this bullpen it is very doable. Help is on the way too, with the payroll freed up by LaRoche, and Anderson and Fulmer in the minors.

Fyi- Fulmer got tattooed in his first start and Anderson has literally disappeared from Charlotte. The farm is not off to a great start.

I don't think it's that easy to post a .700 percentage in those three guys' games even if the bullpen is really good. See, that's the thing about a starter's W/L record. I realize that winning twenty games is difficult when the starters aren't expected to go as deep into the games. I don't expect a starter to have as many decisions as a guy in 1970 did. But I do expect that a top guy should have a higher winning percentage than a top guy in '70 did. A pitcher as good as Sale is supposed to be should only very rarely be exiting the game without the lead.

Baseball looks to be ticketed for #1 sport in Chicago again! Goodbye shitty Bears.

We should find back to back days where the board can attend a Cubs game and a Sox game.

These are the years we will be able to look back upon and cherish for decades.

Nobody knows. Usually the FutureSox guys are all over something like this but they have nothing.

It will take a back seat if the blackhawks reach their conference championship

This is actually true. Had a huge impact. Getting a washed up weirdo and his son out of a pro clubhouse pays dividends.

If anybody knows about pole positions, it's Cubs fans.

So when do fans start showing up to the park, because I think I see here in this box score 49.8% filled to capacity, which by my math is less than half full.

They have been conditioned to worry more about the owner's revenues than anything else.

Sox attendance truly is a weird subject. Much like TV ratings, who gives a shit? I watch what I want and attend what I want. If others do not, what difference does it make?

Jealous Cub fans know deep down that a World Series is fantasyland so the attendance is something they can use to beat Sox fans over the head.

So everyone talks shit about what I said, but no one says anything about Frank, huh?

Can't wait til Cubs and Sox this year. I will be attending my first ever Crosstown Classic game this year at The Cell, in full Cubs regalia and I dare someone say something.
