Dare I say: could the Sox go on a winning "streak" tonight?
Let's all hope because it will be the starting debut of Junichi Tazawa. Tazawa's big league debut was in that fun game we all watched for like eight hours the other night. Yeah, he gave up the homer...

Today, two extremely puzzling trades occurred.
The first was the Royals shipping two minor league pitchers (including their best one, Daniel Cortes) to Seattle for shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt.
As I put it on Twitter, the Royals just took on $10 million of a no-hit, no-field...

Over the last couple of months, I have noticed that Red Sox fans seem to be losing attention to the team. Tickets are harder to sell off if you can't make a game. Comments on Red Sox blogs have dropped.

Unfortunately, Jose Contreras is not pitching for the White Sox tonight.
Instead, it's Freddy Garcia -- which could be just as good.
Jon Lester will be on the hill for the Red. His last four outings have been very solid as he's lowered his ERA to 3.58 on the season.
