QUOTE (Tex @ May 5, 2011 -> 04:10 PM) This is a team that many around baseball picked to win their division at the minimum. No one seriously would have picked them for last place. The difference between what they were expected to play by the majority of baseball experts and what they are currently playing at, makes them about the best team to play this poorly. But of course some people here are much smarter than those that are paid to prognosticate. Hawk also made observations about how he thought certain slumping players seemed to be starting to maybe turn things around. We will see

Maybe we can get things turned around in Seattle? I'll let you know as I will be there. Stay tuned

We must have lost again

I think it's the uniforms causing this slump. We need to chnage them to the traditional white pin stripes. I am sure of it kind of maybe. I really do feel strongly both ways about this issue. But, I will be watching on WGN today

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 4, 2011 -> 04:40 PM) Mostly because I haven't seen him do any sort of managerial stuff, but I really fear that Cooper would be a terrible manager. I think Cooper kind of got the pitching staff back on track (mostly that is) but Walker hasn't gotten through to the hitters. But they are men and need to be treated as men and not high school/college players. If you don't know how to hit by this level I am not sure they can ever get it straightened out except on their own. Walker pretty much just has to encourage them. He can't really teach them anything. Can he?

QUOTE (since56 @ May 4, 2011 -> 12:55 PM) Don't give up! Don't ever give up!! Our Sox will rise again!!! Rah-Rah Sis Boom Bah GO SOX! Kind of hard to believe we have the worse record in baseball, but that will make it that much better when we turn this thing around and win the whole enchillada

QUOTE (Real @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:16 AM) We'll get perfect gamed on Friday, haha, maybe you should go to the Seattle game! I will be there and not looking forward to the possible result. But, maybe being there in person will somehow bring good Karma to this Sox rabble

I think the poll assumes we woud have won seasons marked as disappointing. The '67 and '77 teasm competed to the end basically with far less talent then other teams. Can't blame the '94 yeam for a strike. Sure they were disappointing years but for other reasons

It's hard to believe the Sox now have the worst record in baseball followed by the Twins and last night they beat us with a no-hitter. It's time these guys showed they are winners.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ May 4, 2011 -> 12:20 PM) Rule No. 1: You don’t get rid of a top-five manager in his prime. The only top 5 list Ozzie is making is Top 5 AL Central managers. He's atrocious. This team got rid of Tony Larussa way back when thanks to the ole Hawkeroo. Not saying that measn anything now, but makes you kind of wonder just how they make decisions

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2011 -> 02:59 AM) Seriously, me neither. Not that anyone cares, but I've emotionally checked out on this team. Sure, they can suck me back in with a 25-5 stretch, but I just don't believe in the organization right now. I'll be watching games now to enjoy Santos, Humber, and hope to see improvements from Beckham/Quentin/Rios/Dunn/Sale/Floyd/Morel Fathom, that's alot of improvements waiting to happen. Who would have ever thunk it!

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:32 AM) Thing is Jackson pitched well, his only sin was to kubel Yes sir! He showed up but that long ball is our achilles heel

OK folks. There is always tomorrow. I will be watching them on WGN at 1300 hrs CDT. They then move to Seattle and I will be there. Just hope I ddin't waste my hard earned dollars buying tickets to see my Chisox

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:28 AM) It's ok, we're just 10 games back, it's only early May! Let me get back to you on that

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:28 AM) well if you're making multi millions and need someone to motivate u,thats just having pathetic players. i dont see paulie needing anyone to motivate him(i know, no hits by him today but hes doing good) Hard to believe this team could be any worse but without PK we would be

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:27 AM) We suck so f***ing hard. This is embarrassing. No-hit by a team that sucks as bad as we do. But now we suck worse

QUOTE (Whitewashed in '05 @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:26 AM) I feel like vomiting. I'd at least give credit had he really deserved it. Giving up what 5 or 6 walks shows you it wasn't really the pitcher who got this no-hitter as much as it was our inept offesne giving it to him

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:25 AM) Sox chased at least 4 ball fours tonight against a pitcher with no command. I love guys like Morel and Beckham, who have no power, swinging out of their asses with a 3 ball count. No patience and they all seem to think they are Babe Ruth/ They can't amke the adjustments needed at the plate

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:24 AM) Laughingstocks of baseball. The White sox get no hit at home by a team that's been in the tank all season. Just f***ing fire everybody right now. Please. This is inexcusable

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:23 AM) Where's our Liriano? I have heard plenty abput how we have faced good pichers and that we have good pitchers, but for some reson they can't match the other team and that's what we need

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 4, 2011 -> 03:21 AM) Hey it's still early! You know you are right! But, it's too late for others

Gotta like Matt at 98 MPH though

This has been a horrendous season so far. No offsne, bunt into a triple play and now on the verge of a no-hitter

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2011 -> 02:02 AM) I dare anyone to say Walker shouldn't be fired. The "plan" and execution at the plate is sickening. where was the bunt sac?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 4, 2011 -> 02:01 AM) Walk to Castro and no out. This may be what we need. Liriano is probbaly getting by with gallons of adrenaline pumping and that walk and about 100 pitches has done him in on the other hand
