No you wouldn't, as there's no reason to rebuild unless they trade your BFF Sale.

If trading Sale meant that the Sox as a team would be good again, I'd be all for it.

 

Sale is one of my all time favorites, but I'd much rather have the Sox be successful as a team than him.

Twins back up 6-5 in the 5th.

Wow Kluber is not even changing things up just pounding the strike zone and getting easy outs.

 

The late inning smoke and mirror magic is gone and now we are left with a team that struggles to score more then three runs a game and is shut down rather easily.

They're not going to rebuild with Quintana, Sale, Rodon, Eaton, and Abreu locked up for cheap.

It was never a matter of rebuilding ...it was a matter of building and amassing sufficient young talent. All they needed was another offseason or 2. But after a reasonably successful effort in 2013, Williams and Hahn reversed tack and went for the veterans....which is essentially what williams had been doing (and failing at) for years. There is a reason that championship teams are built the way Williams/Hahn want to construct a team.

 

At this point, I would ride it out, while using Charlotte more to try out a few players.

Thank god Rollins is batting 2nd

Time to end the Jimmy Rollins experiment. This dude is f***ing done. Bring up Anderson.

With a loss today, are they 4-11 since that loss in Texas? They were 23-10 at the time.

Yep, that 3-run hump for them is unbelievable.

 

Rollins seems like a fraud batting from the LH side.

Please end the Jimmy Rollins show

 

Rollins has 8 RBI on 2 home runs and has a guy who has had an OBP around .400 for most of the season in front of him. Think about that.

 

 

Rollins has to be a KW guy......

 

Sickening

I don't think that Anderson is ready but I bet we see him for the start of the next home stand.

When you really look at our opponents and most of their ABs and compare that with ours you can just tell who has a better game plan at the plate. Ours has always been horses*** 90% of our games and I am tired of it. Get a whole new group in there already and change up how we go about getting ready to face a pitcher

Everytime I look at GameDay, Cleveland has a bum on base. Every time.

It has been that way forever with the White Sox and seems to be product of the steroid era that White Sox have not realized is over.

Honestly, even if he's not ready, I dont think he could be any worse and he sure as s*** can be a lot better if he does adjust quickly

The White Sox are also famous for rushing guys who are not ready and then failing.

 

Yet they continue to do it.

 

Saladino can at least field the ball and gives the same offensive output as Rollins.

 

Really sad.

 

 

Rollins now has a .483 OPS vs RHP. Lawrie is at .760 and Melky at .769. Why is Rollins batting 2nd!!

Because he kinda fast?

With men on 1st and 2nd and two outs and the cards mounting a comeback, Wong swing 3-0 and flew out....and then made an error to lead off the next inning.

 

If Wong was facing the White Sox it would be a two run game tying double.

That was a wonderful 2 pitch at bat.... sigh.

This team died

Yeah, that was just awful. Babe Diaz was on deck for them also

Advanced metrics and advanced scouting mystify your Chicago White Sox

 

Jimmy Rollins simply sucks

Abreu 5 for last 6!
