8/13 Sox Sweep!

The Tigers lead over the White Sox is down to 5.5 games thanks to today's Sox victory. Detroit is slumping while the Sox are surging. Every team goes through a slump at some point, and it is about time the the Tigers had theirs. Expect to see the Sox atop the American League Central Division standings by the time the smoke clears.

The key to the turnaround has been improved starting pitching. The Sox received quality starts from all three starters against Detroit, and the relief pitching has been sensational. Look for the Sox to go on a long winning streak as the starting pitching continues to improve.
