Josh Beckett v. John Danks
Curt Schilling v. Jon Garland
Tim Wakefield v. Mark Buehrle
Julian Tavarez v. Javier Vazquez
The only game that scares me a little is the Vazquez game. Danks and Garland are atrocious and the Red Sox destroy Buehrle. The White Sox have a terrible offense.
Sweep these fools and then sweep the Yankees.

The weather looks absolutely awful there, which really sucks for a few reasons:
1.) Beckett vs. Danks should be a win and we'd pick up a half game on the idle Yankees.
2.) The pitching matchups were setup perfectly for the Yankees series and we were set to throw Matsuzaka, Beckett and Schilling. A rain out or two could mess that up.

Why Peter King is a football "expert" and not a baseball one...
From today's MMQB:
Ortiz' monthly splits:
April .297 .402 .615
May .333 .459 .540
June .326 .439 .539
July .330 .427 .568
August .337 .454 .640
That Daubach must have been one hell of a player; much better than the Quad-A utility hitter I remember him as.
From today's MMQB:
g. The Red Sox scored 46 runs in 51 hours in their four-game sweep in Chicago, thanks in large part to David Ortiz finally starting to hit. For a few months, he was producing an awful lot like Brian Daubach.

Ortiz has been a monster this year. So he's not going to hit 50 HR. Big deal. He's gonna hit 50 doubles and walk 110 times. He could very well have his best season yet.
