QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 01:22 AM) Glad you weren't a Pirates or Royals fan. I know this about the Pirates and Royals... I've seen the Royals win two World Series and lose two World Series in my lifetime. I've seen the Pirates win a World Series and make the postseason the last three years....something the White Sox have never done. Yes, they had years of suck under a economic system that killed them. But here we are in a better economic system and a double wildcard format, and they're actually doing well, and the Sox are trying to duplicate 2005-- and doing terribly.

Jays with 2 runs off Zimmermann in the first.

John Danks got released after four starts with a 7.25 ERA. Mat Latos over his last 7 starts has a 7.25 ERA.

Maybe the least enthused to see a new guy in a Sox uniform ever. The last 25 games have done that. Hope they start winning games soon. That's all I got.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 8, 2016 -> 07:04 AM) If Sox could have just played .500 ball they'd be in great shape. If the Sox just played 12-13, and in the process gave the Indians and Tigers one loss each, and the Royals two losses in that road series, the standings would be: Sox 35-23 -- Cle 31-26 3.5 Det 29-29 6.0 KC 28-30 7.0

After tonight: May 10--June 7 Cle 17-11 (3-1 vs Sox) Det 16-11 (3-0 vs Sox) KC 15-12 ( 5-1 vs Sox) Sox 6-19

Putnam has soreness. So do I, but I digress.

Real talk, I think this homestand should be his final shot at this. If they're under .500 going to Cleveland, it's Renteria time.

If you were told on April 3rd that the Sox would be .500 on June 7th, you would have taken it! But seriously, this sucks bad.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 10:58 PM) You're making me toe the line man. It's hard not to jump with crap play for almost exactly 1 month. Jeez. All they had to do was play .500 for a couple months, make a couple solid trades, and win 90 games and the division. They were set up nicely, even if they got lucky a lot of the time. This sucks.

5 runs? Royals scored 7. 5 is nothing.

Good job by Purke.

Through May 9: Sox 23-10 -- Cle 15-14 6.0 KC 15-16 7.0 Det 14-17 8.0 29 days later...

QUOTE (soxfan85 @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 10:45 PM) We need Jose Canseco & Mark McGwire. Ryan Braun is available.

Must win tomorrow. Falling under .500 less than a month from being 13 over is a bad look.

Eaton isn't what you would call...consistent.

Phillippe Aumont.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Fire the whole stack and let Renteria pick his own guys. Coop can't be one of them. When they turn over the coaching staff, Coop leaving is a must. It's time for a fresh start.

23-10 6-19 Yep, that adds up to 29-29. .500

Pretty bizarre how Shuck was sent down for weeks, then when they called him back up, he's a DH, batting 5th, playing everyday, etc.

Here we go.

7th inning magic is coming! Nah, just kidding.

Hope Purke can go three before getting his ticket to Scranton.

Any chance this stays under 4 hours? Man.

Scherzer-Shields should knock them under.500. Just awesome.
