Although unlikely, we can all hope the White Sox will pull off a split.

Given the overall poor play of the White Sox this season, winning two of the five game series against Kansas City seems about right. If the Sox win three, that would be good.

Before yesterday's game, I was hoping for a White Sox split. Now, that seems unlikely.

How about Lenyn Sosa at short?

Anderson's on a pace to commit 52 errors this season. Hmm.

Considering the White Sox starters for the first two games, winning one of the three games against Boston will be satisfactory.

I have never seen such an injury prone group of players in my 66 years as a White Sox fan. I don't get it. Back in the day, the starting team played nearly every game together. Fox and Aparicio started nearly every game together for several years, including both ends of a Sunday doubleheader separated by less than 30 minutes. There's the old baseball axiom that you get in condition for playing baseball by playing baseball not working out in a gym.

This should be another tough game for the White Sox. When on his game, Hendricks can be tricky. Going into the series I would have been satisfied with a split, so this game is gravy.

Even with a slow start, Madrigal's BA is still higher than Harrison, Pollock, Engel, Garcia, Grandal and McGuire.

As presently constituted, the Cubs are fielding a better lineup than the White Sox. It should be a tough two game series for the Sox. Hopefully, the Sox will be able to win one of the two games.

Before yesterday, the Sox had a shot at a 156 loss season. Well, they still could lose 155.

How about Vaughn for left field? Is there any significant drop-off in offensive and/or defensive quality of play going from Jimenez to Vaughn? I'm beginning to think Jimenez isn't the player most of us thought he would be. I'm not just talking about the fragility of Jimenez.

The White Sox did that last year when they gave away Madrigal.

When healthy, Jimenez can be the DH and he can have a DR. (Designated Runner)

Anyone know what Shingo's up to these days?
