Sox Week One

This would probably be a long post if I did it in paragraph form, so I'm going to do it in bullet form and not do too much explanation.

• 3-3 isnt bad, would have been nice to be 4-2, but it could have been much worse. Half game out of first after one week, good not great.
• The pitching has been fantastic. Contreras was the worst starter and MacDougal the worst reliever and I really dont see too much a problem with either as we move forward. The bullpen has been downright nasty, rough day against the Twinks can be overlooked, and Jenks struggling in non-save situations is not a huge deal. Dotel has been unreal, Thornton great, Linebrink good, and Richard better than expected out there.
• Hitting started out slow, but it is coming around a little bit. Only 5 runs in 3 games against the Royals is not good, better in series 2. Looks like it will continue to get better. Alexei and Quentin are the keys. They got going against the Twins and off the Sox went.
• Lots of balls to the warning track. The ball will fly more as the Sox travel to different parks and as the weather warms up. This team will hit a lot of home runs. (Bold prediction, right)
  
• Amazingly the weather held off. Opening Day had to be pushed back, but then they got 6 straight games in. Not bad for April in Chicago.
• 6 road games coming up, I predict 3, 4 would be nice. Anywhere between 2-5 is possible

This used to be in bullet form but a certain writer (cough Justin cough) changed the layout of the site. I like the new layouts, but I think no longer will I be using bullets.
