    White sox know feldman very well, and have had success against him, except for feldman's last start.

    Danks has had 1 bad outting vs the cubs.

    White sox have a bullpen, cubs don't.

    White sox 4-1 last 5 at wrigley.

    Cubs have scored 9 runs last 12 innings. So, they will likely score 2 over the next 90.

    cubs are 5-10 vs lefties on the season.

    whie sox are over .500 against righties.

    sox 3-2 last 5, cubs 2-3.

    Feldman has started well, mostly against weak offensive teams, except for his revenge outting against tex. His good start probably due to national league hitters seeing him for first time.

    White sox are weak offensive team, for sure... but they are facing pitcher they know well. cubs are just as weak offensively.

    this rivalry means so much more to the sox than the cubs, esp at wrigley where they hope to steal some fans.

    This is why:
    1) Game 1 7-0 routing of sox
    2) Game 2 Cubs up 2-0 on SALE before rained out
    3) Danks has had a hell of a time with mechanics even in his triple A rehab starts and is coming off surgery with a very high walk %
    4) Konerko is out and that hurts even more.

    i gotta roll with the white sox looking for some respect from the chicago fan base.

    feldman is due for a bad outting, and once the it gets to the cubs bullpen who the hell knows what will happen.
    they could have a 6 run lead on the marlins in the 9th and not be safe.

    sox take it 4-3.

    Konerko is already getting old. His impact in the game is not felt as it used to be. Lets go sox!!

    I disagree. They could have done more damage there and given their kid a more comfy lead. And they only scored because of the error, Sox live ML down 0-1 right now has tremendous value.

    Cubs bullpen most likely blows it and it ends up either 4-6 or 5-6

    navarro hitting 2 bombs and white sox playing defense like they want the cubs to score.

    how do you cap for that?

    just want to what the great minds saw in the cubs today before the sox played defense worse than a 9yr old team?

    just fading danks? fading cold sox bats?

    could fade feldman just as easy and the almost always cold cub bats just as easily...

    I was fading Danks. He's having trouble throwing strikes.

    Line movement looked good too.
