The Boston Red Sox roster hasn't changed much from last year's team that won it all, but what has changed has been the hunger to win. Boston is buried in the basement of the AL East at 11 games under .500. Boston entered this season as the toughest team to shutout over the last decade, but here we are prior to the All-Star break and they have gone scoreless 9 times, including last night. Brandon Workman has been awful in his last two starts allowing 10 runs in 11 innings and serving up four long ones. John Danks has found the groove for Chicago as he has completed seven quality starts in his last eight where he owns a 4-2 record and 2.65 ERA. Boston has been crippled by left-handed pitching of late where they are 1-8 in their last nine, and they face a hot one in Danks tonight. Play on Chicago.
