Why we brought him up is beyond me. He sucks

He's basically Bonifacio.

Why he keeps getting chances is hard to see.

Carlos and Melky hitting streaks have been snapped. That's game.

Hacking away like we're down by one run. Oh well 3 of 4 7-1 road trip. Let's go home and kick some Yankee ass

Lets get to .500 and go from there.............Sox brass in a very tough spot tonight, should be interesting to see.

Last time they were at .500 was may 17 and 19. They unfortunately went 1-7 their next 8 game after

Losing one game shouldn't change their minds

Losing one game shouldn't change their minds

 

Yes but going winning 7 games in a row after starting off the Second half going 1-5 shouldn't have changed their mines either

Back to a tie with the Tigers, who managed to close out a slim 9-8 lead (was 9-2) with apparent new closer Wilson.

 

 

The problem, of course, is that Sox brass hasn't seen how they would compete with top-flight competition (since the All-Star Break) other than the Royals and Cardinals...obviously, they let one of the Cards games get away, but they're simply not in a position to add 2 of the top 20 players in baseball in Price and Tulo.

 

AA is gambling his future as a GM on those deals working out.

 

The White Sox are not in the same position.

Yes, it should have... we were literally inches away from being 3-3 those games, and don't forget we went something like 9-3 right before that 1-5 stretch.

Still 17-9 since the first Cardinals series

What the actual shows is how inconsistent this team is. They win some then play bad then play good.

Place your bets on if the FO buys or sells because time is running out.

And yet they are still under .500 and have been for the majority of the year

There's only one piece to sell. That Samardzija. You might as well listen to offers. If something blows them out of the water, do it, otherwise, this team has nothing really to sell.

With so many teams needing pitchers somebody hopefully should make a decent offer. Heck the jays are still trying for more starting pitching. Yankees need it horribly after sending nova to dl

That's quality baseball.

 

START ANOTHER 7 GAME STREAK TOMORROW AGAINST THE DOG f***ING YANKEES!

Yes, but you can argue with our rs/ra ratio, all the dramatic late comebacks from down 3-4 runs in the first six weeks or so (there must have been five or six of them), the fact that we're playing two rookies on the infield who have never been through a pennant race, there's just a lot of factors arrayed against them (along with the upcoming schedule).

 

Baltimore's been really quiet, and Minnesota hasn't made a move, either.

 

You'd have to imagine they will all come up with something in the next 17 hours or so.

Yes, but it's also very hard to give up on a team that was built to contend and has won 17 of 26 games.

Agreed. I would much prefer infield prospects over the end of year draft compensation. Williams/Hahn are horrible at drafting position players and the lack of out of town stupid in baseball now is making it really hard for us to pawn off our garbage for real players.

You can move Shark and still potentially contend. It would be harder, but the White Sox odds are not all that fantastic as is. There's nothing else to sell, though, so you can "sell" without throwing in the white flag.

Buying a bat. Can't change your mind because of one rainy s***ty game facing a knuckleballer.

Which is what Upton/Cespedes would help. The fact that we're under .500 is irrelevant when we're what, 2.5, 3 games out of a playoff spot?

Same here. The overreaction after the inevitable loss, while expected, is still mind-boggling.
