Chi-Guy- You can think what you want... The only thing I care about is making the playoffs and kicking some team asses when we finally get there..

Balta- I totally agree with you nobody on the Sox should think about the wildcard .. I believe we will the divison by 7 games.. Im just looking if somehow the Twins do overtake us we will have a playoff spot and thats the main thing because I think with our rotation and if KW makes this team better we will go to the World Series to play St.Louis IMO

Im curious how many others look how the other AL great teams such as the Rangers,Yankees and Redsox are doing each night... I hope that the Cubs sweep the Redsox that way the Sox can have a bigger lead on Boston

I would love for the Sox to win the AL Central but getting into the playoffs is the main thing.. If somehow the Twins over take us which i dont think they will.. The Sox have a 7.5 game lead on Texas for the Wildcard spot...

In his column today, the Tribune's Teddy Greenstein says "[WSCR-AM (670)], riding a wave of momentum, could hear next week they've landed the broadcast rights for the White Sox. That would end WMVP-AM 1000's 10-year relationship with the team." Greenstein also says that the Score is looking to land the Bulls but that WGN-AM (720) is favored to land them.

The Twins know that this year is ours thats why they are b****in...

Really miss the Rockies BY JASON WILLIAMS Pioneer Press PHOENIX — The unbalanced schedule has been a hot topic since interleague play began in 1997. And the argument probably never will end, especially if it determines the American League Central Division race this year. The Twins' chief divisional rival, Chicago, had lowly Colorado on its interleague schedule, while Minnesota does not play the National League's worst team. The White Sox entered Wednesday's game in Denver looking for a three-game sweep of the Rockies, who had a 19-38 record — second-worst in the majors. Those games ultimately could decide what is shaping up to be a neck-and-neck race in the Central, with the first-place White Sox entering Wednesday with a four-game lead over second-place Minnesota. "I've heard people argue about that," Twins pitcher Kyle Lohse said of the unbalanced schedule. "It is kind of unfair when teams within in the division are playing different schedules and things within the division are so tight. But the bottom line, I think, is you've just got to beat the teams you're supposed to beat. And if you take care of your own business, you'll end up there at the end."

Jim Landis joked he "really didn't want to remember the 1959 World Series." But the former five-time Gold Glove White Sox center fielder realizes Series appearances in Chicago are rare. Landis, 71, and nine of his former Go-Go Sox teammates plan to be in Chicago the weekend of June 17-19 when the Sox play host to the L.A. Dodgers at U.S. Cellular Field. It marks the first time the Dodgers have faced the Sox in Chicago since Game 6 of the 1959 World Series, which the Dodgers won four games to two. The Sox won the first game 11-0 with right-hander Early Wynn getting the victory over Roger Craig at Comiskey Park. Ted Kluszewski drove in five runs with two homers and a pair of singles. Johnny Podres outdueled Sox starter Bob Shaw for a 4-3 victory in the second game to even the series. In Game 3 in Los Angeles, Don Drysdale beat Dick Donovan 3-1 as Carl Furillo drove in two runs with a pinch-hit single and Charlie Neal added an RBI double in the eighth inning. Reliever Larry Sherry, who would earn World Series MVP honors, was credited with the victory in Game 4. Despite a three-run homer by Sox catcher Sherm Lollar, the Dodgers prevailed 5-4 when Gil Hodges homered to lead off the eighth. Three White Sox pitchers combined to blank the Dodgers 1-0 and beat Sandy Koufax in Game 5. But the Dodgers would celebrate the '59 title with a 9-3 thrashing of Wynn in Game 6. "We were happy to be ahead in the Series 1-0, but we knew there were many games to go," Landis said. Known more for his speed and defense, Landis was a .247 career hitter over 11 seasons, the first eight with the White Sox in 1957-64. But Landis batted .292 (7-for-24) in the '59 World Series. "As young as I was, I was just happy to be there, to be honest with you," Landis said. The Sox's appearance in the '59 World Series was their first since the infamous 1919 Black Sox scandal. On June 18, Landis is to be joined by Rudolfo "Rudy" Arias, Joe Hicks, Ron Jackson, Jim McAnany, J.C. Martin, Billy Pierce, Claude Raymond, Jim Rivera and Shaw. In addition, current Sox and Dodgers players will wear '59 replica uniforms and the center-field video board will feature 1959 trivia and entertainment. WGN-Ch. 9 will incorporate throwback graphics and in-game features on 1959 team members into it broadcast. Festivities at U.S. Cellular Field begin June 17 when the Sox and Miller Lite will give away '59 replica caps to the first 10,000 fans 21 and older. "I remember how it was in 1959, how the fans were so excited and greeted us at the airport," Landis said. "When the Sox win the pennant this year, the fans will be like that also." Overheard: Landis' style of play would fit into manager Ozzie Guillen's philosophy this season. "I am old school, I know that," Landis said. "But the game does not change. A winning team has real good defense and good pitching. I am very proud of the organization going that way. A lot of teams can hit 200 home runs and still finish dead last."

Would love to have Cameron back on the Sox as our 4th OF

Does anyone think the Giants might trade Omar Visquel would love to see the SOx get this guy... He would be an awesome #9 hitter

The Giants will be looking for pitching help of any kind... The talk here in SF that they might trade Jason Schdimt

How about moving Uribe to 3rd base and finding a SS like Jack Wilson or Omar Visquel

Has the Sox trading Everett to one of three teams Nationals,Marlins or Orioles.. Would love to get Mota from FLA

mine is Carlton Fisk

Feliz is 31 years old..

Feliz would be a great addition to the Sox team. Is he eligible for salary arb next year that might be the reason the Giants might want to trade him

I just called the local sports station here in SF the guy who anwser the phone said he hasnt heard about any rumors about Feliz being traded to the Sox

On WSI it says that the Sox are talking to the Giants about P Feliz.. I lived in SF and havent heard any news about this

Cerb- I would love for you to try to do an interview with Jordan Danks... Im hoping that the Sox will sign him...

I dont know if he will excel in the majors but its worth a shot. He is batting over 300 and has good power plus right now we dont have a backup for PK

I hope the Sox bring this guy up to the majors to be Konerko backup until we make a trade for a backup 1B

I would love if the Sox made a trade for Daryl Ward of Pitt

I will be at all 3 games as well
