6 hours ago6 hr Lucas Spence coming out of nowhere to win the Astros games. Can't overlook him in this series.
6 hours ago6 hr For what it's worth, Houston has a losing record at home, Texas are much better at home.

5 hours ago5 hr 17 hours ago, Colome's Hat said:I think we actually match up with Houston well. We just happened to get the Astros at a bad time when they were hot. They have bats but I would favor the white Sox. As long as the bats show up, we should be fine. Astros walk a lot of hitters.Very much this. Houston is an under .500 division winner who got hot for a bit this summer, including when we played them. At the same time, the Sox offense was sputtering badly. Houston will not be going into this series feeling very confident. Going into today, 4-6 over their last 10 in crunch time. Meanwhile, we’ve been performing relatively well under the same pressure and the offense is alive again. I think we’re headed to the ALDS.
5 hours ago5 hr We've always got owned by the Astros in Houston. I was at games 1/2 there in 2021 it was awful. Hopefully the new guys don't carry on the tradition of sucking there

Hopefully the new guys don't carry on the tradition of sucking thereThat was a 95-win Astros team against a TLR Sox team that played .500 ball in the second half, had no fight in them, and had a terrible clubhouse atmosphere. How many Sox players from that 2021 squad are still on the team? Looking back, I don't blame the stadium for the Astros outclassing us in that ALDS.That being said, the Sox are 2-5 vs. Houston this year, so I'm not saying I'm glad we're (likely) facing them.

4 hours ago4 hr this is a bunch of kids who have to grow up quicklythis is their disadvantage plus the pitching staff put together by duct tape
2 hours ago2 hr If the Sox coughed up something like Carlson + Schultz for Ried Detmers, the Sox would have won the division, would have been favored to win the ALDS, and would also have gone on to potentially win the ALCS - bringing them into World Series talks.I hope that Carlson rakes and bulks and brings back a better SP next year, that Schultz keeps growing and becomes an ace, and this team grows into that type of path perpetually.Until it happens ( or until this team shocks us again and survives deep into the 26 post season - I’ll forever have a chip on my shoulder. )f*** THE ASSBLOWS - LFGWS!!!

2 hours ago2 hr If the stars align to allow us to knock the cheaters out of the playoffs all will be well.
2 hours ago2 hr Astros? Yikes…2-5 record against them this season.Good luck. Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by WhiteSox2023
1 hour ago1 hr 4 hours ago, BigHurt3515 said:Houston has a lot of experience though and they have our number a lotAbsolutely. They have owned the Sox the past several years.Nothing the Sox can do about it now, just play the game with nothing to lose and see what happens.
1 hour ago1 hr Looking at all the teams in the playoffs. Anyone but the Sox or Rays winning the AL pennant will make me puke. On the NL side, I can live with anyone but the Cubs or Dodgers making it to the World Series.
