are we going to be 7 GB after 12 games? really?

 

Its early. We keep on playing like this against the division and early will become hey look X team once in a 100 years came back from 20 down to win the division.

 

 

Didn't Abreu get a single with Eaton on base in the first?

 

Sorry thought he walked in the first.

FWIW, I have been really impressed with Jennings so far. Especially since the Sox only had to trade Rienzo to get him.

How about someone who has actual experience managing. It can be in the minors. Just promoting guys that you happen to own a poster of doesn't make them good managers. Expect better. Not just random childhood heroes.

 

Until KW is GONE this is what we can expect from this organization

Haha it barely matters, your point stands.

And Pearl Harbor/in or out threads

From 1997-2008 we had a winning record against the AL Central every season. From 2009-2014 the only season we had a winning record against our division was 2012. I'm getting really sick of being unable to beat our division foes. This sucks.

damn, that was close.

They might as well hold off on Rodon tonight. It's his normal rest tomorrow, so they should be able to go to him early if they need to on Tuesday.

This is just pathetic to watch. Pitching is coming around somewhat to give us a chance to win but this offense is just atrocious.

JR more than KW

Sad part is the cubs are all they are to be and are playing well. The sox will have zero coverage and interest in about a week.

With the amount of games against your division you have to win divisional games to have a chance. Losing large amounts of games to your divisional foes makes it nearly impossible.

 

He brings nothing to the table. Team came out flat this year and already made two of the dumbest decisions a Sox manager has made in a long time.

If I recall correctly he rated quite highly in bullpen usage in terms of leverage

As I said earlier, the Sox have just killed all momentum they had as a franchise. I'm honestly not sure how to get things turned around.

I couldn't possibly care less what the Cubs are doing.

f***ing win, that's how.

The pitching in the division (besides Twins) seems like it's going to be really good. Indians have 4 guys with all-world stuff

This is the sad part. Off to a terrible start and all division games. This teams season is going to end quickly. As dumb as that sounds were going to have a just horrendous divisional record and zero shot at the post season. Robin will stay on because we're loyal to a fault.

I dunno, are we actually at the point where we think this is how the team will perform for most of this year? I still think they're significantly better than this, even if the baserunning and fielding foibles continue.

I don't remember a white sox season where "it's early" was ever even true. The playoff years always started well. The only decent slow start was 2010, which happened to also be my fav non playoff team ever, but still.

It's not like we got a lot of coverage even when the Cubs were losing 95 games every year the last five seasons. Barring a dynasty-type run by the Sox, this is not going to change.

Jennings was a real good pick up. He's got a good arm.

Robin sighting

How long can we keep saying its early? That excuse is going to run out soon. 6+ games back in the first two weeks. That's f***ing sad. The one time I'm excited for the season were f***ing terrible.
