June 29, 200718 yr well after getting swept by the Cubs this team was officially considered dead by everyone everywhere. So now there is no pressure on this team they have won 4 in a row, maybe just maybe we can go on a historic run and make the playoffs. I'm feeling about a 10 game win streak one loss followed by an 8 gamer to get right back in it. Call me what ever you want but I just have that feeling.
June 29, 200718 yr Thanks for jinxing it. The sox are like the underpants gnomes. Don't pay attention to them, and let them do their thing.
June 29, 200718 yr It will take an act of GOD for sure.Yes I just beat thousands of others to the punch oh how cheesey Iam.
June 29, 200718 yr If the offense and bullpen stay as steady as they have this series, maybe. But we are playing the Devil Rays of all teams.
June 29, 200718 yr They'll have to win like 10 of the next 11, which is not including these last 4 with the DRays. That would put them at 14 of 15 and 2 games under .500, giving them atleast a shot in hell at doing anything at all.
June 29, 200718 yr For more than 40 years, i've never considered the Sox dead, why start now? The year i was born, the Go Go Sox went to the World Series, there's gotta be something to that, right? Ya, i'm old, but i have never stopped believing in the Chicago White Sox, and i never will. I just kick back and watch........
June 29, 200718 yr We have 12 games left against CLE and 14 against DET (I may have counted wrong). So I still have hope. They have both played so good they are bound to cool off. LETS GO SOX! Edited June 29, 200718 yr by striker62704
June 29, 200718 yr It's possible that we could still compete this year if we brought in a reliever or two, a few young kids and everybody started to hit like they can, but I'm not holding my breath.
June 29, 200718 yr Tonight's game was good for our mojo. Now, if we can just sweep these pesky Royals, we might have something here....and then 4 with Baltimore at home....
June 29, 200718 yr At this point, I'll be happy so long as this team wins more games than it loses. Losing seasons are for the north side.
June 29, 200718 yr This team has to play better than .700 baseball for the remainder of the season to have a shot at the playoffs.
June 29, 200718 yr QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 05:53 AM) This team has to play better than .700 baseball for the remainder of the season to have a shot at the playoffs. And this team is not capable of doing that, but the eternal optimists aren't going to grasp the reality of the situation. I just hope that Ken Williams is not one of them.
June 30, 200718 yr This team is closer to the 1st pick in the draft than they are to 3rd place in the Division.
June 30, 200718 yr If we would have swept the Royals, it might have been a starting point. Now the good feeling of starting to hit vs. Tampa is gone. To get shut down like that the last six innings is ridiculous. Bannister was bad early. He should have been abused tonight.
June 30, 200718 yr Look at who's in our lineup right now....we have so many guys who should be on the bench or in the minors. Only Konerko, Iguchi, Thome, and AJP should be starting in the majors right now. The Tampa series was a nice breather on what's been a miserable year, but it's hard to imagine any scenario when we can even get within 6 or 7 games of the division lead the rest of the way. our schedule during the 2nd half is incredibly tough.
