Cali Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I hope that Tiger sweep was a f***ing wake up call to this team. Great way to respond. Gotta try and take as many division games as possible... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexSoxFan#1 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Gotta be impressed with the way these guys bounced back from that horrible series vs Detroit, yeah it's the Twins but a few SoxTalkers were saying we wouldn't sniff 1st again...a series later we're back in 1st b*tches!

Kyyle23 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Remember back when the thought of the Twins coming to town meant that they would probably eviscerate the Sox in every way imaginable, and pretty much end any hope of contending? That is why beating on this bad team is fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsidepride15 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 We now have 6 starters either over, or right at (PK with 49) fifty RBI after 98 games. Youk, Becks (probably a stretch, lol) and DeAza could all be there in a couple weeks. This lineup is as dangerous as any if we stay healthy. Don't stop now boys!!

chw42 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 09:23 PM) Rios quietly having a career year. I thought this was the case in 2010 too. But by this time in 2010, Rios was starting to struggle. He stopped pulling the ball and started hitting weak grounders up the middle most of the time.

Butter Parque Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Where are all the people saying we would probably never see first place again after Detroit? It's a long season and we've proven to play with heart and resiliency. We'll be in it at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Juan Pierre should have been in LF yesterday. He would definitely have made those two plays yesterday that Viciedo couldn't make. Dayan is an embarassment and should only be a full-time DH or 1B. With our strong tradition of great outfielders like Pods and Juan and Caballo, we need someone who will serve as a better role model for our youngsters coming up, like Mitchell, Walker, Thompson and Hawkins.

Okay, I'll call a truce on the Viciedo one. I only got in this comment because I was at the game yesterday not too far from Viciedo but there was no way to post a comment online in the game thread then... Hopefully we won't hear any more about trading Alexei Ramirez, either. Marty always says that I should bring up all the times that Dayan fails or strikes out or doesn't walk. Would just like him to be equally critical of Gordon Beckham, that's all. But it seems half the White Sox fanbase has already picked up the "down with Beckham" bandwagon since Tuesday night.

Come on man, if you are going to call people out, at least update your signature to someone from the Sox who has been here this decade.

elrockinMT Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I think I get more satisfaction by beating the Twins then the feeling I get when we sweep other teams and then it feels real good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who has a problem with this. on sooooo many levels. They're highly paid professionals, vying for a division championship, playing their direct competitors, and they can't get up for those games. I'm not sure what this says about their make up. They've gone 3 - 3 in their last six, and why the totals come out the same, I think that I would of preferred it if they would have won a game or 2 in Detroit and lost a game or 2 against the Twins. They should of let their exhaustion show against the Twins, not the Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
