The Sox played, on the road, two teams out of the AL Central that were widely regarded as pennant contenders in the Indians and Tigers. How satisfied are you with the 4-2 record in the first week?

Thomas Barbee: The fact that the Sox have not only posted a 4-2 record but have also been competitive in virtually every game is a testament to both the talent on the team as well as chemistry in the clubhouse. As indicated in the opener where the Sox came back from a 7-2 deficit, the Sox have displayed a lot of heart so far this year (something sorely lacking in their 2007 campaign) which will take them a long way. While it’s still early in the season, it’s good that the White Sox are showing such life early on, especially against the two teams that were supposed to finish at the top of the division.

Steve Jankowski: Overall pretty good. 5-1 was attainable if Buehrle didn't bomb his first start in Cleveland, but I'll take 4-2.

Corey Dowlar: If you would have told me that the White Sox were going to go 4-2 during this road trip, I probably would have laughed. These two teams are widely expected to finish among the top in the American League, so to go onto their turf and come away with four wins you have to be absolutely ecstatic.

TJ March: I’m very satisfied, and I have been saying since before spring training that neither of those teams are complete anyway. Detroit does not have pitching to compliment that dangerous lineup, and Cleveland does not have the lineup to compliment their pitching. However, I think with the way the Sox played ball over the first week in the season, many experts may re-think how things will shape up in the AL Central. Now, going into a homestand, I’m very excited to see more great baseball.

Jake Widlowski: I am very satisfied with the 4-2 record. The Sox played the Indians well and caught a few unlucky breaks (the blown calls in the season opener for example). If not for some unlucky breaks in game one, the Sox could be 5-1 right now. Their series against the Tigers was an excellent display of good teamwork, quality bullpen pitching, and especially hitting. They came together against the Tigers and looked very impressive.

Aaron Rusnak: Although we clearly should be 5-1, I am extremely happy with the team at this time. I predicted a 2-4 start, so boy, have I been proven wrong.
