I'd be a lot more upset if this was a one run game.

Not the Sox night! 2 OUT

All this "mentally weak" stuff about Gavin is such garbage.

 

He's an OK starter, not amazing. I don't see why an interesting narrative has to be created about each particular guy

Son of a b****.

 

Good defense screwed us out of a tie game.

Just remember we played this game without 2 of our 3 regular left handed hitting starters.

 

Feldman's handled lefties this year, it's righties that have crushed him. With that said, it will do wonders for this team to get AJP back in the lineup to balance it out.

There's one player on the Sox that I think struggles with the mental aspect of the game, and it's not Gavin. It's the player who everyone predicted would fail in his new spot in the batting order, and he has.

Shutout again.................take 2 of 3 is acceptable.

Eh tough loss & not a way I wanted them going into Minny with the was the Twins r playing.

 

But let's take care of business & hopefully Bucholz & Beckett can give the Tigers fits.

We definitely did not look like we came to play today. Just blah all game long. Blah on defense, blah on offense.

Oh well. On to Minny.

Yep. When Gavin has his A game going there aren't many better. You don't just give up on talent like that

Thornton is worse.

Its obvious the Escobar trade affected this team mentally....

I think Hawk has to admit it: it ain't all good sometimes

Thornton's situation isn't that rare though. There have been a lot of relievers over the years that were better suited for the 8th inning and didn't have a closer's mentality.

I think this observation does make sense. Comfort zone or whatever, but there is a different mindset to be the closer

Sucks to lose a game in the standings, but overall, this was a fantastic week for the White Sox. Just need to get everyone (besides Danks) healthy ASAP.

Why is it that occasional bad outings is now evidence of being bad mentally? Isn't that just evidence of being bad?

Gonzalez just posted that there will be a roster move before Monday's game, anyone have a guess?

No trade after the game? How boring.....

Didn't they already say Olmedo was coming up?

Yeah, but someone has to go down to make room for Liriano.

Probably one of the rookie lefty relievers to AAA.
