Getting back to the title of this thread all I can say is I hope Hahn doesn't listen to any of us LOL

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 19, 2013 -> 01:22 AM) Of course, another big defensive blunder....with Golden Boy this time. Sigh. We're third in the AL in errors....climbing again. Settle down big fella. Axe should have pitcyhed over the error but that's how the cookie crumbles I guess

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 18, 2013 -> 08:07 PM) No. The White Sox are in a position where they absolutely need to deal starting pitching. When Peavy comes back, the Sox will be sitting on 6 major league level starters again. They could run a 6 man rotation for a week or two until the deadline and maybe skip a Sale start or something like that, but doing that for more than a couple turns is intolerable with a staff full of young guys who can benefit from work, and moving Axelrod or Santiago to the bullpen is intolerable given that they're legit pieces who could be even bigger contributors next year if we give them their time this year. If you're worried about pitching depth next year, starter #6 next year is named Erik Johnson, he'll be sitting at Charlotte waiting for a shot, and then there are other fill-in options if we need a spot start. I don't know which starter it will be, but one of the starters needs moved in July unless we've somehow climbed back into the race. I said before that we have some ideas floated out there that really undervalue our players. I have seen where we trade three starting position players for some minor leaguers, etc. I think pitching is our strength so the ones I might consider trading would include Peavy and maybe Thornton. Keep our young pitchers and don't be so quick to give up on the likes of Beckham, Ramirez and Rios. Build around your strength. Ramirez does concern me some and if Carlos Sanchez is really the real thing maybe he can step in that spot, but I think we have a real strong DP combo in Alexei and Gordon

Interesting if not ridiculous trade ideas here. Undervaluing our players because the Sox are slumping is not good baseball sense

Konerko

It hasn't been a good year so far but it can get or at least feel better if we beat the Twins

Why don't we keep our better players and trade some that might benefit from a change of scenery and with a little tweaking be competitive in 2014?

Losing is not fun

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 15, 2013 -> 11:13 PM) Its a high ceiling guy. We need more of them in our system. If he fails, so what. Maybe we get lucky

Not a good sign when we give up the first inning run

Let's spoil the Astro's fun with a big win tonight

We can turn this ship around. Don't give up

Negro Baseball Hall of Fame Museum is here. Let's honor those past stars with a win so do your part right here

KC is famous for BBQ so let's cook them Royals

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 10:39 PM) Well, yeah the 59 team is what everyone remembers but Minnie Minoso and Jungle Jim Rivera ushered in the Go-Go era way before that. Nellie Fox is the one I remember the best. He and Luis Aparicio. But, Fox was my favorite as a kid and my first baseball glove was a Nellie Fox model

QUOTE (mike89128 @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 09:29 PM) 1951 GO GO SOX OK!!! However, I think the 59 team claims that slogan

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 16, 2013 -> 09:30 PM) I get what you're saying and feel much the same way. Nothing wrong with some griping though. To me, it's what separates us from the stereotypical Cubs fan who loves his Cubbies to death and thinks every year, this is the year. Sox fans don't like bad baseball and don't go to games just to soak up the rays and check out the chicks. We get pissed off when we're witnessing bad baseball. Your right and I do my griping too. We want to win no doubt. But, unlike some I really believe the players want to win too

Three losses in a row and all by one run and that is really becoming the offensive theme of the season. One real bad inning by Hector or Matt's homer allowed... make the dfference

De Azzzzzzaaaa! Homer
