You better not watch,
You better not cry,
You better not cheer,
I’m tellin’ you why—
The White Sox are letting us down.

They’re bootin’ the ball,
They’re swingin’ at air,
They’re leavin’ the bases loaded out there—
The White Sox are letting us down.


They can’t hit with RISP, man,
Their bullpen's full of dread,
They say that they’re “rebuilding”
But we all know what that meant (they're dead!)

So grab your old Sox cap,
And throw it in the fire,
‘Cause hoping in August
Just makes you a liar—
The White Sox are letting us down.

🎶
(Bridge)
We’re dreamin’ of ‘05 again,
While Jerry’s counting his gold,
We’re stuck with this circus,
With no one to hold...

So don’t check the score,
Just spare yourself pain,
They'll strand the whole lineup again and again—
The White Sox are letting us doooown.

Gold.

I think bad umpiring is particularly harmful to a team like the Sox where so many of your innings/games are won and lost on the margins, so I get especially annoyed by it.

And that's doubly true when we have so many young guys trying to dial in their zone understanding as is.

And it's TRIPLY true when there's no consistency.

If you're gonna call a bad zone, at least keep it the same bad zone and don't make guys guess.

Colson is a stud, I've seen enough. even if he doesn't hit at all like 220 he can do 220/300/430 and play a solid SS for 4 WAR.

I surprised they didn't sit him after a successful series

I have decided I know who Baldwin reminds me of, and that’s Billy from the movie Predator.  This is my totally random footnote thank you for your time 

Sonny Landham ,also one of the bad guys from 48 HRS. named Billy Bear . James Remar was the other bad guy, Dexter's father in the original Dexter TV show.

Landham died in 2017 . He was 76.

Apropos of Mongomery's first game: Montgomery makes that catch!  🙃 Meidroth great effort though

Guess I didn't convince you Montgomery got a bad jump on that bloop in the 1st game even though he said so himself. 🙃

As I recall, the discussion was whether Meidroth makes that catch or not.  I still don't think so...

...and I do think Montgomery makes tonight's play.  But again, just havin' fun here.  🖖

Loperfido…didn’t we want to trade for that guy when he was in Houston? 

I’m gonna be honest with you, this is the first time I have ever seen that name

You can make money with that.

Can’t recall who we were trading him for.  Maybe Fedde. Toronto traded kikuchi for him. if it was even him. Hard hitting second baseman (who can’t play 2nd) who was old for his level but killing it. I could’ve imagined this whole scenario
