Beavis and Butthead having a rough 2nd half

Can't wait to watch 30 for 30: How a White Polo Saved the White Sox

By this time last year I had stopped watching completely.  Now I can't miss a game.  Wouldn't it be something to rattle off like 10 in a row.  It would be the most improvement win streak in baseball history

Id love them to ride 6 in a row into the cubs series and take them down a peg or two.

Fortunately just A's Pirates Nats to contend with for worst record with Rockies locked out this year...and A's can't get Top 6 pick three consecutive years from what it seems.

 

Kind of opposite of last season...this year Pythagorean has them underperforming by six full games, should theoretically be 42-59.

 

Angels, Orioles +5

Blue Jays +6

 

Rays -5

Braves, Yankees, Rangers, White Sox -6

Last year, the Sox' 4th win after the break came on 8/21.

Win #36 for the season was on 9/16.

Some guys are definitely playing themselves into valuable trade pieces.

Good God...

Let’s see how they do without Tauchman Robert Houser/Civale Wilson Gilbert Altavilla etc.

 

Note:  please play Teel/Quero together more

One of the crazier concerts I've been to.

I mean that’s what it felt like. I swear they didn’t win in July until like the last week

2 things that make no sense at all. 

Sox 1st team to ever to win their 1st 4 games after the All -Star break by 5 or more runs. 

Best start after the break by the Sox since 2005.

Best team in baseball!

It's crazy how well they are playing.  Maybe coming out of the break against a bad Pirates team was what they needed.  I expected them to fall flat in Tampa, but they looked just as good as they did in Pittsburgh.  Obviously this level of play won't last, and there will likely be more losses than wins going forward (especially after the trade deadline), but it's nice to see the young guys playing well.  It's stretches like this that allow you to squint and almost see a bright future.

As you know it's all about talent and Sox currently have five good regular lineup players compared to what, one last season? I do think our manager must be good because I'm still vastly unimpressed with the pitching staff. He's doing a good job with five or six pitchers a game. Now that Robert is raking that will be a bit of buzzkill if he's traded soon.

Uh-oh, a 36-65 team celebrating victories:

White Sox partying like it's 2005 ... but celebration is top secret

I like how they snuck this in...

This 4-0 run is the best second-half start for the White Sox since going 5-0 in 2005 when they went on to win the World Series. It’s worth noting. It’s worth enjoying.
