Another embarrassing matchup against the Twins. I love the disgust in Stone's voice when he's describing these scrub relief pitchers out there for Minnesota.

 

We need to lose these next two games. Nothing may happen, but if there ever was a moment to push change (ANY change) it'd be then; right before the ASB.

 

The Sox will be in 4th place. There's not much that can be done to change. For trades it will be garbage for garbage and there's nothing on the farm.

I don't see any changes being made, unfortunately, even after the inevitable sweep that will occur by the end of the weekend. Greg Walker has a job for life.

With our inability to beat the Central, this might be our best record at this point in the season for many years to come.

Owned.

Bruney has recently done a good, good job out of the pen lately. No runs allowed since June 24th. 6.1 innings.

Hawk! Shut up about the 4th out! Yes, it could/should have bee turned, but he's fast! It was Floyd's batting practice pitching that gave up the 6 runs! And, oh yes, the home run given up to a nobody hitter.

Piece of cake!

 

Can you imagine how happy Thome is being on the other side of this "rivalry?"

He got to hit the home run which was our last highlight against these guys now he gets to kick our ass.

 

 

On a serious note ... how long will fans show up for this?

Is the Cell experience so great (if it is, awesome) that the product doesn't matter much?

Or will our crowds start dwindling?

Alex Rios, thanks for coming out today. A cue shot to the 2nd baseman on a first swing fastball.

At least we are halfway through this misery called the Twins series.

Two more days of getting owned and we can forget about the Central Division til after the AS game.

wow two pitchers with ERA's over 6 and nothing to show for it except a nice hang with by Konerko

 

that is all I have to add

 

sorry

If not then, our pitching would have given up the lead anyway at another point.

Big deal. He might get to be in four games in the post season if the weather is descent. I don't think it matters.

 

I hope there are some good Sox fans at least making some good money on our faceplants vs. Minnie and the Central.

Those who bet wildly on the opponent would be bringing in some good money overall.

I would like to see somebody benefiting from this.

I wouldn't go. Hell...the sox were out here in June...and I'd be damned if I was gonna go out and spend money to watch that garbage.

He still can have a lotta fun 19 days in the regular season against his old team.

Will we take a game against them all year? Law of averages mite have us 2-17?

I am actually surprised we have been well above our AVG on this homestand. I want to say we have been around 27K each game this homestand, and like 31K In Monday's game. Our AVG was only about 23K.

Mauer has no clue against Sale....

Hawk somehow makes unbearable White Sox baseball even worse. He's such an embarrassment.

He just needs to be benched. Worst approach for any Sox hitter I can ever recall.

Man this game just drones on

It's amazing how it's a vicious circle, cycle.

He makes so much money he has to play. But by playing him, we won't make the playoffs, will keep losing which ultimately will make the team lose money.

It'd be neat if they would just bench these high paid guys who can't play anymore.

Man this game just drones on

... and on... and on...

see what I did there?

Sale has a very high ceiling and should be groomed to start next year. IMO, he has the most potential to become a true ace on our staff.

Looking at FanGraphs, it looks like Gavin has junked his slider to a cutter.

Yeah.......that's not working this year.
