JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 It’s never as bad as it seems during the bad times and never as good as it seems during the good times. This is still a good team, they’re just not great yet. Despite this recent bad stretch, there’s still a chance to make a deep playoff run.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 If Sox win today, they will have won 2 of their final 4 series - against winning teams. The world is on fire though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world is on fire though! As I said the other night after the 10-0 loss, this team is still capable of a deep playoff run. But I also sympathize with those that are concerned. Hahn has to improve in free agency moving forward. Signing Bauer would a great compliment to last winter’s Keuchel signing but please no more washed up DHs, RF or RP. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some don't like the irrational positivity. Pale Hoser's aren't the only ones expressing concerns. The players are. Commentators are. The best player in Sox history is. So us Sox talkers are out of line. You are right. Edited September 27, 2020 by SonofaRoache Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're 11 games over .500 after 59 games. There's nothing irrational about being positive and excited about that. Every team loses games and has bad stretches. Frank Thomas had plenty of stretches far worse than the Sox just had on his teams in the past. They're on a 95-98 win pace right now. In Big Franks entire time with the Sox, they won more than 95 games once. They are leading the AL in run differential; a Frank Thomas led team did that once before.

This team over achieved in a 60 game season. I could see your point. I agree that there are only 2 legit starters, an untested rookie in Dunning, and then a metric fuckton of walks and HRs from Lopez/Cease. Over 162, this team, with this rotation, and THAT manager could be a one that starts off HOT, but then wilters as the BP gets ground down by overusage. Oh, and Lopez/Cease walking the yard every 5th day. And Rodon and Gonzalez doing their gascan bit as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 We are 8 games under. 500 against teams not named Pirates, Tigers, and Royals. We are 12 and 20 against .500 teams or better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 White Sox secret geniuses; will face 2 lefty starters in the first round.

Matchups are important and I don't think we wanted the Yankees or Cleveland in a three game series with their top two starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
