June 1, 200718 yr Painful-lifeless New blood is needed-a transfusion of new players into this line up
June 1, 200718 yr last week if I would of told you the Sox would have scored 4 runs off Santana at Minn and MB would throw a 2 hitter against the blue jays, never would you have believed they'd be mired in a 5 game losing streak and look lifeless doing it they need to pull a miracle in these next three games or we're looking at 4 months of meaningless baseball Edited June 1, 200718 yr by SoxFan562004
June 1, 200718 yr You know, when things are this bad and we lose a two-hitter by Buehrle, you just have laugh at this point and ride it out. It's almost mystical what's going on. I can't even get depressed at this point because I think we're just going through a dark time where we can't get a break. It's like the anti-2005.
June 1, 200718 yr Author Its the lifeless look that is most troubling-slumps come & go-this is a funk teamwide
June 1, 200718 yr The one positive of the night is MB. Great game. Hopefully all the starters follow suit.
June 1, 200718 yr Awesome game by Buehrle, stepped up big time. Thank god we didn't have to watch the bullpen implode yet again. Halladay was f'n nasty. b**** and moan about all the f***ing hit and runs you want, he was still nasty.
June 1, 200718 yr Even though it's tought to watch games such tonight, the loss is easier to digest when you consider this White Sox team just isn't very good. They'll be around .500 the entire season -- perhaps feed off a weak National League for June -- but it's obvious this team isn't doing anything in October. Williams failed us this season. If this style of play continues, only one course of action is necessary -- selling players. And we'll need midseason deals that obviously favor us and immediately help our minor leauge system. Get on it, Williams. You'll have a lot of work to do over the next month.

Not that means that I think the way they're constructed/playing they're better than you say they are, but they'll have the illussion and Ozzie and KW will buy it Edited June 1, 200718 yr by SoxFan562004
June 1, 200718 yr We just aren't a very good team. Our offensive approach at the plate is terrible. I don't think anything will help this team at all right now. It's gonna be a long summer I think.
June 1, 200718 yr This team is going to make me more of an alcoholic than I already am. Awful, just awful... Oh well....
June 1, 200718 yr QUOTE(fathom @ May 31, 2007 -> 06:09 PM) It's a great thing that we preserved Jenks for tonight!! are you whining about the series in minnesota, or are you suggesting Buehrle should've been pulled?

I use sports as an escape, and I was hoping that the Sox would play meaningful games all summer, but at this pace and the way they look on the field, I have a hard time seeing that happening

Get something for them.

Making fun of people who were complaining that if we used Jenks last night for "two" innings, he wouldn't have been able to pitch tonight.

June 1, 200718 yr QUOTE(Allsox @ May 31, 2007 -> 08:14 PM) No worries, Bears training camp opens in July lol true, and look, I've been supernegative all night on this board, but I'll throw one optomistic disclaimer in here. If they can do a complete 180 and take the next three games, with CLE and DET playing each other they will gain 3 games on the division leaders in some combonation (long shot I know, but Roy doesn't pitch every night)
June 1, 200718 yr fathom, I think you need to keep track of games or get rid of that silly signature. Ozzie's been quite good this year.
