I expect the Sox to get handled tonight

[xCraCKz]

By the kid. We're always terrible against guys we've never seen before, and this guy is levels ahead of everybody else. I love my Sox but Strausberg is a man.

That's been changing lately.

10ks but they won in extras. Strasburg is legit. His curveball is unhitable

What record did Strasburg set tonight? Most K's ever in first three MLB starts or something like that?

Speaking of someones curveball who is unhittable right now..."pretty boy" Floyd!

 

[BigP50]

he has been excellent lately, his confidence must be through the roof right now, which is what I think he was lacking earlier in the season.

I'm very impressed with the outcome of the game. We're red hot and everythings starting to click, especially our pitching, which IMO our staffcould be atop the MLB if everything is clicking. Strausberg CHANGEUP is amazing as is his Curveball, that thing drops off the table! Great W for Gav and the Sox!

did the Twins win tonight?

 

[Got teeth? Keith doesn't.]

Twins lost and the Tigers won, so MIN leads DET by halfa game and us by 5.5.

Also, Floyd does seem to be back to his usual solid self, a 3.08 ERA in his last 6 starts with 12 BB and 35 K in 38 IP. He's known to get off to slow starts to start the season so wasn't too concerned with him this year.
