they don't look good. They have an eight run lead and give up hits,
walks and play sloppy defense that lets the Flubs back in the game.

The Sox win 2 of 3 against the Cubbies when the should have easily won
all three. On Sunday, after a fine starting performance by Gavin
Floyd (finally) the Sox could have at least tied the game if they went
into the batters box without bats in their hands. However they get a
lead-off hit, a walk and a gift balk by the Cubbie closer and yet they
still can't manage to get a run home. So much for the offense looking
good.

The Sox get a chance to hopefully look alive against the Pirates. It
would be easy to look at the Pirates as a team that can be easily
beaten but ask the Cubbies how that has worked out for them. Then
it's a series against the Nationals, with phenom Strasburg starting
against the Sox. Wonder if Strasburg will break a strike-out record
when he faces the Sox?

Strasburg may have his best game yet facing these lousy bats.
