flavum Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 QUOTE (soxfan85 @ May 30, 2016 -> 02:46 PM) This team sucks. What a great mirage at the beginning of the season. And no excuse for what has happened over the last three weeks. This isn't regressing to the mean. It's bigger than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2016 -> 02:47 PM) This season ended on Rua's bomb. Team has lost all of its confidence and swagger since. And that falls 100% on Robin. A good leader would have gotten the team past that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnCangelosi Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 This team is awful and do whatever it will take to lose. Hawk was talking about the Royals and TWTW "the will to win", well, with the Sox it seems as if it will be "TWTL" the will to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Seven in a row...and no end in sight. When the team is hitting and scoring runs the pitching is s***. When the team gets great pitching the hitting is s***. What a f***ed up organization. And it starts from the very top down. Someone posted that Harvey who had an ERA of over six would get well against the Sox a few days ago. They were right on the money. Yet Robin remains the manager. LOL!

soxfan85 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 In a few days, this team is going to be below .500 I am in absolute shock that this has happened after a 23-10 start. This goes far beyond slumping, etc. There is a major, major issue with what is going on within this organization. There is no more "let's get 'em tomorrow, etc." It is time for major changes.

fathom Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Sox should be doing everything they can to avoid letting their awful hitting catchers bat late in games. Instead we get them hitting consecutively with Avi and Saladino available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 We need to dump the trash. Rollins, Avila, Sands... basically the players that bring nothing to the table.

I was not a fan of the Robin hiring but firing him would not solve the problem. I think the roster is a .500 team. But first step I think Robin should go quickly so they can give Renteria a chance to show what he can do over the rest of the season. Second step w Renteria's input is to clean out some dead wood like the group you mention. That way he gets some input on his roster. Third step is to add a LH bat and a SP but again w some input from Renteria. Everyone is blaming Robin and he gets some blame. But Hahn does as well since the bench is awful and there are still holes in the everyday lineup and bullpen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Seven losses in a row. Please don't think this is hyperbole. I think before all is said and done we might vie for a top three draft pick this year. Clearly we are one of the worst hitting teams in Sox history. Bad hitting teams with lousy bullpens tend to drop a lot of games. And we have 4 months of baseball to go! Think about it. We're not going to win many blowouts and with no bullpen we are going to drop a TON of the close games we are in. I think we lose well over 90 games. Anybody on board with this thinking?
