Posted in What a year so far for the White Sox. The team has surpassed even the most optimistic of expectations, as they sit atop the Central Division. So how can you be part of the fun? Yeah, you can get your tickets to any game, but there is one coming up that I implore you not [...]

Sox offense can drive a person batty, but they are still getting it done
The worst kept secret is no more. John Danks won’t pitch again until spring 2013. Having been out since May, I didn’t think he’d be back this year. He hadn’t even made any rehab starts, and it’s now August. Only the supreme optimist thought Danks would all of a sudden heal up than ride in [...]
Sox continue to be movers and shakers
The Sox, well Ken Williams, did it again. Seeing that his rotation needs an upgrade, the Sox GM went out and picked up Francisco Liriano from the Twins for Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez. It was another in a series of great moves. Kevin Youkilis, Brett Myers and now Liriano. And he almost got Zack [...]
Sox stick it to the Twins
After a mostly east coast trip the White Sox came home and took care of business, and the Minnesota Twins. For 3 games the Sox looked every bit of a playoff team. Clutch offense, good defense and timely pitching. Lets go with the offense. The last time I wrote I pointed out that Paul Konerko’s [...]
Sox are now in 2nd after being swept in Detroit

The Sox-Red Sox series began as a coming home party for Kevin Youkilis, but ended as a coming out celebration for Cody Ross. That’s not a good thing for the Sox, which dropped 3 of 4 in Boston, and now lead the fast charging Tigers by just a game-and-a-half. A little hamstring tweak kept Youkilis [...]
Sox do what they were supposed to do in KC
We learned quite a bit about the Sox in the 3 games PASB (post all-star break). Adam Dunn brought his hitting shoes to Kansas City. That’ll show Ron Washington for not giving him an at bat in the mid-season classic. Dunn went yard 3 times in the 3 games, and now sits atop all of [...]

The 2nd half of the season, or the stretch run begins with the Sox on the road. They get 3 games in Kansas City, 4 in Boston, finishing with 3 in Detroit. It’s not a make or break trip, but the Sox need to at least win 5 of these games. The Sox ended the [...]
