July 27, 201114 yr A win tonight would have gone a long way. Now there's a part of me that wants them to wake up Saturday morning 7 games out, just to see what would happen the rest of the weekend. Edited July 27, 201114 yr by flavum
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 05:15 AM) A win tonight would have gone a long way. Now there's a part of me that wants them to wake up Saturday morning 7 games out, just to see what would happen the rest of the weekend. Tonight's game sure sucked. Getting four off Verlander and losing. Gotta win home games. Our team still looks like it'll never break .500. Amazing season. And still no Dayan.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 09:38 PM) Are Dunn, Rios and Teahen still on the team? Then, I'm out. Great post. Those are three very very lousy baseball players.
July 27, 201114 yr All in, all the time.............Not blind and stupid though. All right maybe a little stupid.
July 27, 201114 yr I'm not sure. Remember that scene in A League of Their Own where Tom Hanks and Geena Davis are both standing on the dugout steps giving signals and the batter keeps dancing in and out of the batter's box? That's kinda how I feel.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:43 PM) Out! I think most fans would tend toward out after last night's blah game. If we win today, many may be leaning toward 'in' again. If we lose, there will be a mass rush toward the exits.
July 27, 201114 yr out. I'm glad I got to catch a glimpse of that rare beast, the Adam Dunn Home Run, last night.
July 27, 201114 yr Once out, wouldn't getting back in be jumping on the band wagon? So if the Sox make a run this season, no one who is out will get on board? Edited July 28, 201114 yr by since56
July 27, 201114 yr In, while attempting to future proof the team a bit. Get some new, young starters and an OF or 3B while not totally disintegrating the team.
July 27, 201114 yr Voting in this is officially impossible since the team itself doesn't even know if they're in or out right now, as recent events have shown. Edited July 27, 201114 yr by whitesoxfan101
July 27, 201114 yr Gotta be in after the win today. Today's game (well, really the series as a whole) was the make or break for me. We'll see how the rest of the trade deadline changes the team. It would be nice to make another move that certainly improves the team instead of this trade, which kind of just changes the team around.

Get some new, young starters and an OF or 3B while not totally disintegrating the team. I'm in too. I think changes like these will help change things up. KW's Rios to the bench comments gave me hope. Let's get some young hungry players in the mix and hope for strong pitching. Dunn is looking less bad since the break even if his number have not radically improved...yet.

July 28, 201114 yr I'm always in. I don't think we're winning the central but I'm in like I always am for the 162+ games. It's the curse of being a fan I guess.
July 28, 201114 yr In. The first start of the year was ruff and we didn't play great, but I have a feeling. This year we have had a bad Adam Dunn. Beckham started slow. Danks had bad luck earlier. Rios has been garbage, but now De Aza is mixing it up the way lillibridge did earlier in the year. All in!!!
July 28, 201114 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:43 PM) Out. The GM has no clue on how to trade.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:01 PM) Add "indifferent". 1.) His lousy trades are growing old, real old. Man he is underwhelming. 2.) No. Most of us follow the team every day. Who cares if we don't believe at the present time? 3.) Great post. I still am indifferent as well. No Dayan has made me that way. If Dunn somehow gets hot and Beckham and Lexi start raking and Rios stays on the bench and DeAza excels, maybe I'll believe. We're not taking advantage of a pretty good offensive season from AJP, that's for sure.
July 28, 201114 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 01:43 PM) Out. The GM has no clue on how to trade. Or run a farm system. Fans always complain, "why don't they teach these guys the fundamental?" I think that is the least concern of KW. The organization may reflect that. If there are negative patterns emerging in the minors than he needs to hold the instruction and scouting more accountable.
August 3, 201114 yr Guys I tried. I look forward to every game and still digest so much white sox stuff. But I'm done with 2011. I'm done with the obsession with bad grindy players. Done with the off the field stuff. Done with the excuses from this team as to why they suck. Done with the "well they'll get on a winning streak" lie. It's over. The window on anything is closed. You're White Sox dark ages are coming. The next 5-7 years are going to be brutal. I need to watch real baseball. I need mlb.tv. Welcome to the pennant race.
