  1. The Sox will have to sweep the Guardians and even then will need them to lose 3 or 4 in a row.
  2. All these calls for TLR to walk away are only making his resolve to come back all the stronger. The guy is an ego maniac and a narcissist. No one is going to tell the great TLR to take a hike.
  3. I wouldn't start questioning your fandom strictly because of this season. This has been an exceptionally frustrating year for White Sox fans because of the fact that everything was setting up for a very competitive team and legit WS contender until the day JR decided to hire TLR. And to make it even more incredibly frustrating we now know that JR not only hired a 78 year old with a drinking problem but a 78 year old with a pacemaker installed. You can't make this up. And even not knowing about the pacemaker we all knew it was the absolute worst hire he could have made.. And it has played out exactly as we all knew it would. And to make it even worse, we are now seeing what might have been with different leadership in the dugout and it's too friggen late. And it was totally avoidable. The front office totally let it's fan base down with not making every move possible to take advantage of this window of opportunity to be a serious contender.
  4. How did Cleveland end up with 6 at home against KC to end the year? Was this the original schedule or are there make up games included. Bottom line the Sox just waited too long to get serious about this thing. I blame a lot of this on TLR and his giving too many games away with terrible lineups. This group needed a constant fire lit under their butts and TLR was not the right Manager for that job.
  5. TLR will be back at some point this week. His ego is too big for him to walk away from a pennant race.
  6. The Sox can't let him come back to an incredible stressful situation like the middle of a pennant race just weeks after having a pacemaker installed. And I don't believe his Doctors will sign ok it either. Way too much possible liability issues involved.
  7. Every time I totally bury this team they come back to life and make me look like a fool. If it ain't broke don't fix it so I guess I will continue to give up on them. But seriously what a great gut check kind of win. And I'm really starting to like the looks of Romy as the permanent 2B. That was a huge pressure 2 strike hit he delivered.
  8. Pathetic performance offensively tonight. No excuse. Pitching was good enough. Just shows once again that this team has no chance of making the playoffs. They are exactly what their record says. Any other Division and they are already eliminated.
  9. This would be so much the 2022 White Sox to score 14 one night and get no hit the next by the Oakland friggen A's.
  10. The Sox will quickly remind you why they are only a .500 team. They have to hope they can at least split this series and hope the Twins can win their next two.
  11. This is looking like whoever scores 3 will win this.
  12. We all knew the Sox would struggle to score tonight after all the runs last night. It has been that way all season. They are going to have to find a way to grind this out. And Gio and the BP are going to have to keep it close.
  13. Why beat around the bush. Just tell us what you really feel about TLR.
  14. Can Romy be this teams every day 2B? He looks like he can be a good enough hitter and has legit pop in his bat. And he is only 26, just coming in to his prime years physically. The question is can he be an above average fielder?
  15. Moncada has all the tools to be great. The question is does he want to be.
  16. For the love of all that is good do not bring TLR back.
  17. These games, where everything points towards a win are just the games that worry me with this team. They need to come really dialed in tonight and Cease has to be at the top of his game.
  18. Been ripping this team most of the season so I need to give credit when it is due. Huge series win against a really good Seattle team. Team showed a lot of fight today. Now they really need to bear down these next 6 games against an Oakland team that can't hit and a Rockies team that can't pitch. Want to see them no more than 1GB when they play the make up game with Cleveland on the 15th.
  19. Sox can't count on KC giving them any help down the stretch. They can only control what they do and that has to be playing every game that is left as if it is a playoff game because essentially it is.
  20. Yoan, Robert, and Eloy all need to stay on the field these last 28 games. They have to play through whatever aches and pains they might feel. Need to get TA back and make a legit run with everyone available the last 3 weeks. This is it right now. Put up or shut up. Every game has to be played like a playoff game starting today.
  21. So what is the word on TA, Robert, and Kopech? When are they expected back?
  22. Managers, coaches ect like TLR know no other way of life. They have no hobbies or life outside of the sport they are involved with. They just keep managing until no one hires them anymore or something like this forces them to stop. Stress is an absolute silent killer. The most valuable thing any person can have in life is peace of mind. Hopefully this is the slap in the face that gets both JR and TLR's attention. It is time to hang it up and try to find some peace of mind away from the game. It is now time for new young blood in the organization.
