Big series this week, who are you taking?

Mon - Porcello vs Quintana
Tues - Fister vs Peavy
Wed - Scherzer vs Liriano
Thurs - Verlander vs Sale
 
anything less than a split, would be a disaster, lets sweep and take a 2 game lead over them.
 
I voted split. The way they are playing I wouldn't be surprised if the Sox take it 3-1 but for some reason the Tigers have their number.
 
It's really a shame we haven't been able to beat anybody else recently because we've been owning these Shit-Sox this year...
 
We need to win 3, at least. Not sure what might happen but a split would suck. But probably not feasible to do it to Chicago again this season. We've been smoking them.
 
Split.

It will be hard to sweep and even take 3 considering two of our pitchers are flyball pitchers, and routine flyouts in CoPa will be homeruns there.

Add the fact they actually have more then 3 guys who can hit a ball to the outfield and I'll be happy with a split.

i would hope for a split, but i honestly think we'll lose 3 of 4. i'll predict that the bullpen will blow a game and that the offense will show up for MAYBE one game as per usual.

I think if they lose 3 of 4 they lose the division. I know that there is still a lot of baseball left but they would be 4 back with 19 to play. Scherzer or Fister should win. It will be up to JV to get the split.....if they are losing the series 1-2 when he takes the mound he NEEDS to step up!

I think Porcello is our surest win.

He's has been good here, plus gets ground balls, and that's what we need.

Scherzer also owns the Sox, and I'd say we have a 50-50 chance to win JV-Sale too, but I'm worried about Fister.

As long as we don't keep our current streak of 4 scoreless games alive when Rick is on the mound.

If that was their surest win I don't think I will be watching the rest of the series!

I was going on the assumption (stupidly) that he would get some runs behind him off his shitty counterpart.

He was impressive at times though, stranding a runner at 3rd 3 times.

But I have no faith now in the offense (or even Cabrera/Fielder), so my prediction still hold, last night was our best chance to do something and get us motivated, now we're taking on water fast.

No there isn't, after this series what, 3 weeks? 4 down won't be easy with the way this team has been playing. Regardless what happened last year with the Red Sox and Braves it happens rarely. 4 games is a big lead if it plays out that way.

That's why I said if they lose 3 of 4 I think they lose the division.
