Couldn't agree more, especially with runners on base. No one shortened up their swing. You could tell Hawk was pissed.

 

and to think i talked myself into "well we win these next 2 games and we are only 3.5 out, thats not too bad 4 games into this road trip..."

You have to wonder if any heads would roll if it was an 0-fer road trip.

You know what I'm happy about? It's that if we're atrocious the remainder of this road trip (and I don't see why we wouldn't be), there should be NO excuses. What contributing player aside from Peavy was on the DL the final 40 games? EVERYONE is here. We're not the Mets. There will be no one to blame but ourselves.

 

 

is anybody else tired of seeing Dye?

Or if you're Hawk, the ump every other game.

Why would you think that? Didn't you know Coop can fix him?

 

Can't fix what ain't broke. He's just not good enough to pitch in the bottom of the 9th in a tie game against the heart of the Red Sox order.

I know. You don't really want to see them go 0-11 or 1-10 or whatever, but it might prove a point.

I don't see the point in rooting for it.

No need for an In or Out poll. I think we've all accepted that this team is not going to the playoffs.

if DET goes .500 the sox only need to go 23-12

And I never would. I was just saying that others outside of SoxTalk would realize that this team has problems.

Can September get here soon enough? Need to see what 2010...and on looks like.

I agree. And tip a beer towards Freddy for last night. He buckled down and pitched (and sweat) his ass off. :drink

What makes you think that Ozzie is going to play kids in September. In 07 he threw out his vets for most of the games. Get ready for a steady diet of Wise and your kid will be Lillibridge.

 

 

ok am done being pissed, we get on a tear starting tommorow ;)

Truth is, even after a disastrous road trip the Sox could conceivably stagger to their feet in September and be within 4 games going into a 3 game series against Detroit at home. Which will only prolong the pain.

Or make for a legendary ending that becomes the best selling movie in Hollywood history when Gordon Beckham wins an Oscar for his role as Gordon Beckham.

yeah, it's not worth getting pissed off about. But I would like to finish the season ahead of the twins! :D

PK: "Just to throw all the intensity in and say, ‘Let’s go,’ I’m not a big believer in that. I don’t think it works in this game.''

 

Outside of the 6 month long slumps, or suicide shrug's I will miss his leadership the most when he is gone.

didn't think that they'd be 1 ahead at this point a week ago. too stressful being a sox fan.

An 0-10 trip is still a possibility.

Good job, White Sox and your stellar relief pitchers.

Nice trade Kenny. Brandon should be laughing somewhere.

Laughing with his .167/.231 in 12 atbats? If anything it's just a slight chuckle this far in.

We definitely have no use for the reliever we acquired for him. Just another rag arm hack we'll have to replace this offseason.
