Here is one more from the SNOTman:
Scott Spreitzer's MLB BLOCKBUSTER BLOWOUT! *11-1 L5 days!
I'm laying the price with the White Sox on Saturday night. The "Southsiders" are almost automatic at home when Gavin Floyd toes the rubber. They're 9-1 in his 10 starts at U.S. Cellular. Floyd has allowed just 20 earned runs and 68 base runners in those outings, covering 70 innings of action. That's a white-hot, 2.57 ERA and 0.97 WHIP to go along with an outstanding .172 BAA! I expect more of the same tonight, facing a Royals' squad that's 5-12 in road night games against righties, scoring just 3.1 runs per game. Meanwhile, KC starter Gil Meche will have to deal with a ChiSox team that's in one of their best in-season situations. Chicago pounds righties for 6.2 runs per game in home night outings, cashing 11 of 17 tickets. The Royals are 2-4 in Meche's last six road starts, and he was pounded for five runs and 12 base runners in 5 2/3 IP in a loss to Chicago last month. It's a serious mismatch at the plate and on the mound. Look for Chicago to extend their lead in the AL Central with a "Blockbuster Blowout" win on Saturday night. Thanks! GL! Scott.
