Can't wait to see what the Sox record is on June 19th. Anything less than 42-28 isn't good enough after starting 23-10.

Sox are due for a walk off

The Sox are falling back to Earth. Fast.

To top if off, we have the 7-9 hitters due up for the 9th inning.

 

When things go bad, they really go bad in a hurry. Amazing to think we started this week STILL as the 2nd best team in MLB according to the ESPN Power Rankings.

 

 

Have to hold them here and at least manufacture one damn run.

I'd prepare to be disappointed if I were you.

Lawrie has got to stand closer to the plate. Pitchers always throw it outside to him. He can't hit them from where he's standing.

Ah the doom in gloom is back. Soxtalk is right back at home.

Offense has been fine. It's all about pitching and defense. That's why I expect any trade additions to be pitching.

I'll admit it. This team had me fooled.

Wow at least wait until they aren't in first to jump off the bandwagon

Saturday it was not fine, tonight it is not fine.

Come on Fathom you know better...a good portion of the people on here would be happier in a forever rebuilding process. That way they can sulk for all eternity about what a pile of s*** their team is.

Right now, it's hard to imagine the bullpen just holding the lead for any game where the starter doesn't hand the ball over to Robertson in the 9th.

 

These games against the Astros were supposed to be "the break in our schedule." The hell part is coming up soon.

 

It feels like this division is going to be fought between 5-10 games over .500 now with lots of ebbs and flows back and forth. The idea of the White Sox running away and hiding from their competition went out the window last Tuesday night, along with that 11-6 lead.

Goodbye bandwagoners obviously you've never followed a team through an entire 162 game baseball season.

Well it's looking like that will happen during the upcoming slate of divisional games

Not sure what's going on here anymore. Lots of new posters

If a team could play flawless 162 games of baseball that would be awesome. It's not practical and even the f***ing Cubs lost to the Brew crew tonight. You fair weather fans and your whining is absolutely unnecessary.

 

Just stop watching the f***ing games then.

A slump was going to happen.

 

Does that mean tehy will rebound? not neccessarily.

 

But much too early to panic.

I look forward to the litmus test

Saladino walk off please?

I think people forget this isnt a 16 game season. But a good portion of it is what I said above. Some of these people would be "happier" as Atlanta Brave fans.

Get someone on for our best player in Eaton

I'll continue watching because the inly teams I love in the world are the Sox and Bears, but this corpse ball looks all too familiar. They are looking like the champions of April now and nothing right now.
