Posted in One thing came out of the just completed Sox-Cubs Windy City Rivalry. The Sox are better than the Cubs at just about every position. Some could argue that shortstop is a toss up, but in terms of longevity, you have to take Alexei Ramirez. I digress. The Sox didn’t take 2 of 3 like I [...]

Wood retires from baseball, but the Sox retire the Cubs
What a game? After traveling across country twice in the past 3 days, the Sox couldn’t be blamed if they came out a little flat. Not only did they not come out flat, they came out swinging. Especially Paul Konerko, who continues his career assault of the Cubs. The Captain hit an early 2-run home [...]
Sox and Cubs ready to mix it up, again
The Crosstown rivalry, or Windy City Rivalry to some is finally upon us. I’m sure it’ll still be a drunken bash for most Cub fans, who are putting up with a team that just isn’t that good. It’s not like the White Sox are bashing teams into oblivion either, but they do have a better [...]
Heavy hearts for the South Siders, who won a game but lost a friend
I have no idea what MLB was thinking. On Tuesday, the Sox played the Tigers at the Cell. On Wednesday, they started a two game series in Anaheim. Friday they pay the Cubs at Wrigley. What did the Sox do to Bud Selig, and company? The Sox got mixed results in their 2 day, west [...]
Sox are down & up…then up & down
If you only watched the final 5 innings on Monday, and the first 5 innings on Tuesday, you would have left with a huge smile on your face. You see, in those 9 innings, the Sox scored 11 runs. Monday they actually came back from an early 3 run deficit, twice, to win. Game one [...]
Royals had their fill of Phil, but loved the Sox pen
Good news. After 3 real bad starts, Phil Humber pitched great! Pitching in to the 7th inning, Humber only gave up 4 hits and 1 run, while striking out 7. The bullpen was another thing. Matt Thornton is going through a bad stretch right now. relieving Humber, Thornton came in with a man on, and [...]
Lately Floyd has been pitcher perfect
Where are all the guys that wanted to dump Gavin Floyd? You know, if Jake Peavy wasn’t around, Floyd would be your de facto ace. Floyd continues his early season surge, helping the Sox take down the Royals 5-0 in game 1 of a the 3 game series. In his last 28.1 innings, Floyd has [...]
Sox salvage a tough trip
Nice recovery by the White Sox. Loser of 3 straight, including a doubleheader to the Indians, the Sox won the final 2 games. They won 3 of 7 games on this trip, but it could have been worse. Well, it could have been better, but still. John Danks showed how great a pitcher he can [...]
