If the Sox had 3 more wins last year (and 3 less losses) they'd have been in the playoffs!

Then you can't honestly say that the Sox are doing everything they can to give the fans another championship. Maybe they're doing all that they are willing to do, but not all that they can do.

Question: Were there players available vis free agency this off season who's acquisition(s) woul've improved the team's chances for success?

Here's what you don't seem to understand...the Sox' "window" for playoff success is rapidly closing. We have several players who won't be around (or effective) much longer and we don't really have viable replacements for them in the minors. The time to "go for it" is now, before Konerko is gone, before Peavy is gone, before Dunn is gone, etc. If they go around picking up a "Keppinger" here, a "Lindstrom" there...those are nice pieces to have but, without something "major", the Sox won't catch Detroit.

Dude...I just gave "props" to the Sox for making a positive move to improve the team...quit your damn b****ing and moaning already. Just for the record, if there was a player "out there" who's acquisition could guarantee the Sox another WS Championship, I wouldn't care if they paid him $50 million/season. I just want the Sox to win; they can suck for the next 5 seasons, but I want to see another championship.

That would be THOSE in the Sox' front office!

DeWayne Wise sucks! I'd rather the Sox keep Jordan Danks on the team than give Wise more at-bats!

Some of you guys are too hung up on what the Sox might be paying him...Who the f cares?!? The Sox (obviously) wouldn't have signed him if he was "cost prohibitive". The "bottom line" will always be the bottom line. I think it was a solid baseball move...congrats Mr. Hahn. Now go out and get us a back up catcher (George Kottaras?) and a left handed hitting infielder (Matt Carpenter?), and lets declaw the f--king Tigers!

Can you get a decent milkshake at US Cellular?

Thank "Grammar Rock".

Bingo!!!

Amen brother!

Yes sir!

You are a condescending know-it-all.

Especially if they were smart enough to move the team to the South Loop!

Know what sucks? That I can't respond the way I'd like to cuz you're an "Admin" and you'd ban me.

Not that it matters, but most baseball people have the Sox finishing third, behind Detroit and KC in 2013.

Any baseball fan with a brain would take Moustakas over Keppinger ANY day of the week.

Sorry I don't believe that the Sox are fielding the best team that they are capable of putting out there!

It's pretty sad that as Sox fans, these are the names we're supposed to get excited about. Dodgers fan: Hey! We signed Greinke! Angels fan: So what? We got Hamilton. Bluejays fan: We traded for Josh Johnson, Buehrle, Jose Reyes and traded for RA Dickey White Sox fan: We re-signed Peavy, and signed Keppinger, Josh Bell, Brian Anderson, Trancoso, Gartrell, etc., Yep...(cricket sounds)

I can't disagree, except I think I'd try to hold on to Alexei!
