#WhiteSox are just 61-110 on the road since the start of 2013.

Any idea what their batting avg/hr splits is between home and road during this period?

wow.

Even better: how are they in the division on the road?

.360 winning percentage on the road, maybe the manager deserves some blame here.

9-2 score after three innings. Cmon, Robin. Wake up. ... We have obviously been patsies on a road a long time now. I'm glad Hayes looked that up. As a fan I know I've lamented a lot of lost series the past few seasons. I definitely have forgotten what it's like for the Sox to win road series on a halfway consistent basis. Team sucks big time on the road!

Not sure this article will inspire anyone to have much hope...

The ugly road team splits for 2015.

You can also change to 2014 and 2013 regular seasons.

 

3.1 runs per game. Only six homers in ten games...lowest or bottom 3-4 in nearly every category.

64-117 if you pick up from the end of 2012.

 

Closing in on 33.333%. Not easy to do.

The first thing they should do while on this road trip is flip flop Eaton and Micah in the batting order. Eaton has been All Around Awful in April.

The Sox seem to score 2 runs a game that won't work.

The other thing that won't work is the current production of their starting pitching.

 

Sale 5.32

Samardzija 4.78

Q 6.55

Danks 5.64

Noesi 5.23

 

With the way they catch the ball, it is probably fortunate they are 8-11. If they play this bad and are 8-11, wins should come in bunches when they start to hit and pitch like normal.

This team has the talent but they look soo damn flat it's disgusting. If it's not Robin's fault, whose fault is it? IMO the team takes on the personality of their manager. Even Ed Farmer called out Robin during his radio broadcast. If Robin isn't on the hot seat now, he will be soon with this uninspirering play.

Was Farmer back on the air yesterday? If so, good for him.

Even our announcers' tone is negative this year. They don't want to see the same ol s*** all season. We've already played the Central teams enough to know we're not going to contend. So that leaves the wild card. We're not going to get that either at this rate.

 

My suggestion is fire Robin just to see if we have the ability to play over .500 this season and hang with the wild card contenders or not. If we don't, I'd be all for re-booting again. Trade Shark and Robertson at the break and try for a haul. Also trade Melky and LaRoche and Danks. Just keep trying til we get it right. All those guys may have some value to contenders.

I'm not giving up, but I'd like a new skipper to see if team can turn it around or not. If the answer is no ... reboot it!

So how much of a 2-9 road record is a preparation/emotional thing?

The White Sox organization always seems to have a hard time letting go of a manager. This also happened with Ozzie and Jerry. The team needs a change and it needs to happen now, not in September.

They are now 8 and 13. To make the Wild Card, it will probably take around 88 wins. They need to go 80 and 61, the rest of the way.

How many of you think that they're capable of accomplishing that?

They would need get hot-- immediately. As in, win tomorrow, take 2 out of 3 from Detroit, then sweep Cincy.

 

If they play the first 28 at 11-17, that's a hole I don't seem them coming back from.

we are going to be 10 games out by mid-May

They are now in the same exact hole they were in at 0-4. They either need to rip off 15 of 25 or the season is pretty much over. They aren't going to go 20 over .500 from June to October.

And the last 5 weeks of the season are just like the first 5 weeks of the season....8 series in the division. So even if they play good ball through August, what do you expect the Sox to do the last 32 games? They better be 72-58 by then just to have a shot to go 88-74. And they'd still have to go 16-16, which seems impossible against these teams.

The #WhiteSox have won just 61 of their last 175 road games (35%).

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 60m60 minutes ago

 

Per @MLBNetwork, White Sox starters have allowed 68 runs (59 earned) in 73 innings on road this season. Their 7.27 ERA is worst in majors.

This is honestly remarkable to be this bad on the road and opposite at home.

16 of the next 23 on the road.

 

Now or never.
