    :crying :lol: Nix is the last man off the bench, so no. We have a lot of problems, the root of it is not the guy who lucked into a 25-man roster spot because KW couldn't bring in a big fish.

    Couldn't or didn't because he believed in the DH plan?

  2. All this losing by the White Sox is turning us against each other. Why can't we all get along!?

     

    :drink Let's all have a beer and agree that this season is in trouble.

  3. Obviously nothing is going to happen in the near future. If there is going to be a fire sale, it'll happen when the trading normally begins. It is just so damn frustrating right now watching this team. I don't see a major turnaround coming, so myabe it's wait and see mode. We can at least theorize as to who gets traded where and for what.

    Tonight's game is another reason we ain't catching anybody. We'll battle the Royals for the bottom slot in the division.

    Nix's error ... we play just well enough to lose. That was key.

    The CQ and Lexi choke at bats in the ninth. We play just well enough to lose.

     

    I will give some credit to Pierre. He's resembling an actual big league player the past couple weeks and is much less hate-able.

    Even Hawk is thoroughly disgusted. He's said a few times recently that the defense has been "at best, bad". If it wasn't for Nix's TWO errors on one play, Konerko's homer ties the game in the ninth. But, like you said, TCQ and Alexei choked as usual.

    Still waiting for someone to address my question about those other rosters that are winning for such obvious reasons right now...

    Okay, I'll take a shot at it. You're right that there's no quick answer. There are rosters out there with less talent (on paper) that are playing much better than the Sox right now. We keep saying that the trend of so many hitters playing below their career averages and/or their potential. But with each passing day and each staggeringly ugly loss, we have to start considering the fact that it's just going to be a bad year. I keep hoping that AJ, Quentin, and Alexei will turn it around, and although yesterday's game gave us a glimmer of hope, I'm starting to wonder if they will.

  6. As bad as this team seems (and they are bad at times for sure), I'm surprised they are only 6 games below .500. I say that because it seems like they should be worse. 6 games below .500 is NOT good, but they sometimes play like a team that should be 10 games below or worse. They need to have more games like yesterday and get to .500 and start hacking away at the Twins' lead.
