Beckham is back to being bad at the plate. Looks completely lost.

Anyone else get the feeling we're watching the end of our season? I hope not, but it could've started with Cody Ross' bat flip last night

 

Disagree, losing to Verlander is no big shame. All it takes is one win Saturday or Sunday to go back to the Cell in first place.

Beckham is back to being bad at the plate. Looks completely lost.

 

At least he swung hard and pulled a ball today. He's looked terrible since the game he got put in the 9th spot in the lineup. He's absolutely a candidate for a change of scenery trade this offseason.

Two incredibly frustrating defeats in a row following a laugher. Ugh. 3.5 into .5 in 3 days.

 

Jinx?

Not a chance. The tigers aren't that great.

 

They're pretty damn good right now. A very confident team that sounds like they're going to add a starting pitcher by the deadline.

I'm starting to feelbthat way. If we don't get a reliable offense back, we're done.

You mean like what happens after the ASB seemingly every year with the Sox? I'd love to see a stat comparing OPS before and after the ASB for the Sox since 2003.

hooray for the bullpen

Hard to win games when you can't score late and you bullpen sucks.

Well it looks like its academic, since we brought in a scrub to face Cabrera and Fielder. Valverde sucks in my opinion and is very hittable but it won't matter now that we're going to be down a big number it appears

 

please be hurt

Youk keeping the game in reach. Clutch

please be hurt

 

Dude it's not cool to wish for a player to be hurt. Don't be Mark Buehrle.

Omogrosso's actually been our best reliever since the ASB. Unfortunately, Ventura has really no reliable options out there right now. You get the feeling KW's going to have to overpay for a veteran reliever.

I can stomach these losses better than the one last night. Still f***ing fuming over that one

Even for wife-beating boozers?

With the highway robbery HOU pulled on the Jays today, id say so...

Classic sox killer right here. We should put a roster together of worthless hitters who kill the Sox.

Would have upset me a lot more if there were two outs when it happened.

Wow. Our pen is a LOT worse than I thought.

Raburn. Sox killah

Carlos Gomez

Bill Melton is right.

 

The White Sox just don't any relievers who can consistently throw offspeed pitches. Doesn't matter how hard you throw, you will get torched in the big leagues, especially when you get behind in the count.

 

That and the fact that Konerko's hitting about .230 with no power for the last 40-45 games and Adam Dunn is quickly closing in on .200.

 

It would be a mistake to make any big trades to try to save this season IMO.

Been impressed by Veals offspeed stuff so far...

Step aside Thor, make way for the veal
