If the Sox are turning it around they must sweep. We have a favorable schedule the next couple weeks whereas CLE, DET play some tougher teams.

Quintana, Sale, Danks, Peavy. We should win all 4.

normally the sox would beat up the cubs whenever the cubs would have a decent season going and a win streak and then theyd the cubs would fall after the series, SO...

sox coming in on a streak, back at .500 so maybe the cubs will return the flavor...

have no faith in Jackson, so have to hope the bats all come together and cubs can grab 3 of 4 and make me smile this week..

I have zero faith in my team as I am sure cub fans are the same. I am very happy that this got knocked down to 4 games all in a row and not "crosstown" weekend 2 weekends in the month. This series got stale a while ago. The games would feel much better if the cubs win a World Series, than I think it would be a bit more intense.

the one good thing I find is the convienent factor since I watch both teams now I dont have to flip back and forth.

I see a split. One game goes into extra innings...the team that wins that game feels better about the series as a whole than the other team...and both teams aren't very good at the end of the day. White Sox > Cubs...but it really doesn't mean much of anything to anything ever in anything.

:shrug:

Id rather play DET or Cleveland and try to chip away at a division lead than play the cubs or atleast play NL teams that I havent seen in forever like the padres. this series is for the casual fan

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. Minnesota United FC
  1. Chicago Bulls
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
  1. Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Hopefully there are four good games. I'd love to see the Sox make the playoffs, so if they won all four, I really don't care.

Nice start for the Cubbies. Soriano with a perfect example of why you have to run hard out of the box. He could have had a double if he wouldn't have admired the ball while in flight.

Yeah, that was kinda dumb. Sucks though because he just missed it.

Yeah, he did just miss it, but even the one that he hit yesterday that he sat there and admired wasn't exactly knocked way out of the park. A few rows up is a little too close to be admiring.
