Posted in 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 do a lot of yard work in Toronto
Le Grand Royale–Sox get chewed up by Kansas City
The Sox were on roll, having won 9 of 12 before their series against the Royals. They spirits had to be buoyed even more having gone 4-2 against two of top teams in the A.L.West, the Texas Rangers and the pretenders from Anaheim, the Angels. They even won game 1 against the Royals, so things [...]
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 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 [...]

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 [...]
The Sox head into the All-Star break in 1st place
The White Sox go into the All-Star break with a 47-38 record, and in first place in the Central Division. They lead the Indians by 3 games, and 3.5 over the favorite Detroit Tigers. Through 85 games this season has gone better than even the most optimistic White Fans could have expected. The Sox even [...]
