The tribe take the road to Chicago. Now 2.5 games back of the tigers. The tribe need to take 2 of 3 with masterson and jimenez pitching this series.
Game 1- Jimenez vs Floyd
Game 2- Carmona vs Buehrle
Game 3- Masterson vs Humber
Let's go tribe!

I see 2 possibly 3 wins in this series....carmona needs another solid outing. We can't lose a series to a divisional team the rest of the way! If we want to win the Central and make a run in the playoffs we need to win every central division series.

White Sox have been planning really well lately, albeit against the royals, orioles and twins. Hopefully the White Sox can keep it up and take this weak division.

We haven't had any luck against the Twins either, but just beat them twice.
Two out of three is possible and with the way Fausto has been pitching, a sweep isn't impossible... Just hopefully Fausto doesn't get "Deer in headlights" syndrome when he sees the Sox jerseys lmao

Big series for the Tribe. They can make a statement if they can win at least 2 of 3. They have the pitching match ups to do it. Game 1 is very important to get, because Buehrle pitches game 2. He's been very good lately and will be hard to beat.

we're 1-6 against the ChiSox this season, so it's going to be tough, especially at Comiskey...but, I think we can take 2 out of 3--GO TRIBE!!!

Buerhle owns us. That will be a tough one to win.

It sure seems that way but his stats (14-15, 4.67 ERA) against the Indians are some of his worst versus AL teams. On the downside, the White Sox have won 5 straight against us when he starts.

Wow. Doesn't feel that way. Seems like he threw a shutout against us on opening day every year for about 5 years.

I'm gonna be a little upset if we don't see David Huff versus Buehrle or Humber pushing Masterson back to the Tigers series.

Thank God the Twins didnt go all Baltimore on us. Pick up a game without playing a game the last 2 days. Gotta love that!

Can't stand Judas Thome but if he's gonna hit 599 & 600, might as well be against the Kitties. Hit a few more in this series, Jimmy Boy.
