Sox quietly building quite a team

Day 3 of White Sox camp was relatively quiet. Manager Robin Ventura appears to be acclimating himself rather nicely. He is so non-discript, I guess I’ll compare him to a ninja. There have been times when I don’t see him at all, but seconds later I look and he’s standing right next to me. The [...]

Sox stop streaking—on so many levels.

It happened, Finally! The Sox broke their 7 game losing streak. John Danks broke his 3 start losing streak, and the Sox, for the first time this year, beat Bruce Chen. Break out the Champagne. The Sox have now pulled to within 14 of Detroit, pending the outcome of the Tigers game, it could be [...]

Resilient Sox not ready to concede just yet.

Resilient. I think that’s the best way to describe the White Sox performance the past 2 days. On Tuesday, the came from 3 runs down, twice, to finally put away the Twins, 8-6. Wednesday, they almost came back from a 6-0 deficit, only to fall 7-6. Where was this resiliency in April, May, June & [...]

Paper or plastic. Sox don’t care, they just want 3 bags.

Good news, bad news for the Sox. Good news is they have split the first 2 with Cleveland, and haven’t lost any ground to Detroit. Bad News is they have lost AJ Pierzynski for a while with a wrist injury. Thank’s Bruce Chen. Well, when you hit 5 Sox batters, one is eventually gonna get [...]

One Bruce was born to run, the other was born to pitch against the Sox

After a road trip that raised hopes of all fans of the White Sox, the team came home and laid an egg, at least on Friday. Bruce Chen is the best pitcher in the world. Well, that’s how it appears when he faces the Sox. Chen has pitched 20 innings against the Sox this year, [...]

Sox mark the end of their trip with one more win

Starting last Friday, the Sox looked dead in the water. 6 straight losses made even the most hardcore fans start looking toward next year. Come on, 3 games in Minnesota and 4 in Baltimore didn’t give me a lot of confidence that the team would turn it around. But, in something no one could have [...]

So far, the Sox are on target in Minnesota

I, like a lot of you, want to put the Sox season to bed. 6 straight losses, no offense and bad pitching. Maybe it’s time to call it a day, and start to focus on next year. But, I can’t. Yes, I know the personalities of most of these guys, and there is not a [...]

Yanks blow in, blow past the Sox

It sure is tough to watch the White Sox lately. Not only are they playing badly..again, but they are boring to watch. In no way am I saying that the Yankees are a bad team, or that the Sox should be rolling over them, but the Sox just can’t anything going. The first two games [...]
