hi8is Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 We win 10 of the next 11. Season turns around here. If I'm wrong... My head will hang in shame and hi8is will give up on this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I sure hope so but its very unlikely. This team is sucking all around now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 That would be neat if you are right. Generally, however, a team doesn't suck radically at home on a homestand and go do something that you suggest is possible. Rather I think a 3-7 road trip is more likely. Or 2-8.

Â Â Pretty sure there are 11 games in 10 days (DH in Baltimore Thurs), next Monday is an off-day. Â Toronto, Baltimore, Houston and the Rangers. Â Two teams scuffling (granted, when's the last time we swept in Sky Dome, not sure it has ever happened...maybe 2005-06) and then two teams playing pretty darned well in Texas/Houston. Â 4-7 wouldn't be a total surprise. Edited May 25, 2015 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxsoxsoxsox Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 we're 12-19 in the central  that doesn't bode well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 5-6 is the best they can do. Most likely 4-7 3-8 the metrices have a negative WAR hitting team. This team is epically bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammy esposito Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Everything should be on the table if they win 2 or 3 games [/quote Pitching, hitting, fielding and base running are what makes baseball interesting to watch. Failing in the first 3 makes base running a moot point. Is there anything positive to say about the Sox's recent performances. If you can't hit and score runs there is little reason to watch the slaughter. Edited May 26, 2015 by sammy esposito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiderman Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 4-7 or 3-8 is probably the two most likely outcomes of this road trip. 5-6 or 2-9 being the next candidates. Â If this road trip goes the way I think it will, they are likely 10 games out of 1st place by early June. Everyday that goes by means Samardzia has less value with his contract status so Hahn will need to be in a spot where a major decision will need to be made early. Â It's hard to see the White Sox getting major value for him if they wait until end of July. It's easier to see the team getting good value with a move in early June should the wheels fall off. Â If the White Sox just tread water, say 5-6 on this road trip, and are 8 games back, what then? The same questions still apply. Â If Hahn wants to resign a guy who won't talk until free agency hits, do they take that risk? They would get a draft pick back in that scenario (to my understanding). Â So, a major decision looms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claydude14 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I've learned my lesson to subscribe to MLB.tv monthly rather than yearly, sadly. That 6 game streak gave me false hopes. Is there anyway to just play the Brewers and A's all the time?! The Twins piss me off the most. That's where I expected to be after this off-season.
