Vargas v. Peavy
Beavan v. Quintana
Millwood v. Floyd

Well we don't run into King Felix-thank god-but we still do face a very good Jason Vargas- however the rest is their lower half of the rotation. This is a very sweepable series IMO, but I'll play it safe and say we lose 1 but can't really say which one it will be, because we havent seen Beavan a lot so we could make him look like Cy Young, or if we do get to Beavan, Gavin could suck. I actually think we can beat Vargas because on the beat the streak game I play, a lot of the Sox hitters have a solid history against him. This is will be the last series the Sox play in Chicago before I leave for school, so I ponied up and am going to the game on Sunday.

I can see the Sox winning 2 of 3 here. A sweep would be great though. However though, I hope the Sox aren't taking the Mariners lightly. Seattle is coming into town with an 8 game winning streak. Then again, I remember the Mariners ending a 9 game winning streak the Sox had earlier in the year. So payback by ending their nice winning streak I think is in order. I'm actually thankful the Sox are not facing Felix Hernandez in this series.

Are you telling me that at one point you wanted him :lol: But in all seriousness this is a very sweepable series, and I posed this question on my Facebook, "the Mariners are technically a bad team... but they have won eight straight... so do we go Royals on them and get swept by a 'bad team' or do we go Yankees on them and sweep a 'good team?'"

Guess we'll see

Seeing the Sox are in a tight division race, hopefully the team that swept the Yankees shows up. Getting Peavy some run support on friday would be nice too.

The Sox could sweep this series with Peavy going up against Vargas and Quintana pitching against Beavan, who isn't very good. However we'll have to see which Gavin Floyd shows up to pitch Sunday afternoon.

The Mariners are also on an 8 game win streak and have won 9 out of their last 10. The Sox just got done sweeping the Yankees at home for the first time since 1991. A lot of momentum for both teams going into this series. Should be a good one.

Agreed. Something's gotta give. Our toughest game will definitely be the Millwood game.

2 out of 3 for me.

Seattle is hot and after KC, I don't think any team should be taken lightly.

Especially when the team coming in has won 8 straight games and we are only two up on Detroit :lol:

Adam Dunn in beast mode. Solid night for Dunn. Solid night for ARam. Peavy just needs to hold it here to continue to lead the Come Back Player of the Year in the AL
