Hey, the Sox can’t win em all

What, did you think the Sox would win em all? Like that old song I can’t remember said, “Two outta three ain’t bad.” I criticized the Jeff Keppinger signing because I didn’t think he was a full-time 3rd baseman from the defensive standpoint. He has made the hard plays look easy, and the easy plays [...]

Sox are done, but now it’s time to get started

When my teams are eliminated from post-season play, I just don’t care very much anymore. I love the Sox, but the final 3 games in Cleveland were just spring training games in the fall. I am glad they won 2 of 3, but still. So with the season done, and the players scattering all over [...]

Sox aren’t done, but they might be done

If Al Michaels was in Chicago today he would have said something like, “Do you believe in miracles?” Right now if you’re a White Sox fan, that’s the only thing to hope for. I hate to be a bearer of bad tidings, but I don’t think it’s gonna happen. Back on September 18th, the Sox [...]

The season is winding down, but the Sox are still in first

I think the Sox owe the Angels a huge “Thank you.” With the Halos sweeping the Tigers, the Sox remain 2 games ahead of their closes chasers in the Central Division, even though they lost 2 of three to the Royals. First off, A.J. Pierzynski is taking PED’s about as much as I’m 9-feet tall. [...]

Thank’s to Flowers Sox come up smelling like a rose

The sign of a good team–at least to me–is one that not only gets up for high end opponents, but also finds the motivation to crush struggling one’s too. I think most would have understood if the Sox played down to the Mariners over the weekend. Coming after the Sox sweep of the Yankees, and [...]

Sox Sale-ing right along, take a broom to the Yankees

Early August 1991, the Sox swept the Yankees in a 3-game set in Chicago. No one knew that it would take more than 21 years to do it again. In August 1991, Robin Ventura was a star 3rd baseman. Playing to his left was another pretty good player in short stop Ozzie Guillen. Who knew [...]

Sox do a lot of yard work in Toronto

Good news for the Sox as Paul Konerko will be back in the lineup on Friday. The Captain has been out the past few days after suffering a mild concussion against the Royals. Like I said a few writings ago, you can’t, you won’t keep Konerko down for long. I was watching Dwayne Wise the [...]

Sox get all A’s this weekend, and on the home stand

Yeah, I feel horrible. There I am talking about Paul Konerko and his lack of extra base hits, and now he’s out with a concussion. I watched Jarrod Dyson run into him last week, but I thought Konerko would shake it off and continue playing. He rarely misses time with injuries, so the fact that [...]
