Posted in Was there anyone who thought Yu Darvish wasn’t going to pitch in the All-Star game? If you’ve ever been to spring training in either Florida or Arizona you know the Japanese media doesn’t miss a photo OP by anyone from their country. If the media is that rabid for the players, the fans must be [...]

All-Star rosters announced, and not everyone should be happy
All-Star selections, minus one were announced today, and I don’t think there were any huge surprises as far as the Sox are concerned. Chris Sale made the team, but that was a given as he leads the A.L. with a 2.27 ERA. I think Paul Konerko and Adam Dunn were also locks. The Captain has [...]
Sox in a New York state of mind
Nice job by the Sox, splitting the 4 game set in New York. With a little more offense they could have taken 3 of the 4, but with a little less offense they could have lost 3 of the 4. I would give the pitching a B+ in this series. I will be the first [...]
Sox write their last Will after taking 2 of 3 from the Twins
I know you are all gonna cry over this recent Sox move. However I must tell you that today they DFA’d reliever Will Ohman. Ohman’s performance over the past 5 games has left a lot to be desired, as he has given up 6 earned runs in not even 5 innings. I think he sealed [...]
It wasn’t easy, but the Sox win the season series against the Cubs
Come on, did any of you really think the Sox were gonna sweep the Cubs for the 2nd time this year? There wasn’t a chance in hell, not in a rivalry as heated as this one. I did think the Sox would win two of the games, but I’ll have to live with one. The [...]
To accomodate their offense, Sox are moving their next few games to the sun
It’s safe to assume that the White Sox have found their mojo. Over their past 4 games, the Sox offense has been unstoppable, averaging 10 runs in those contests. Maybe a player, or two, isn’t hitting real well, but 7 others are raking. Few of the notables. Paul Konerko tops the list. The Captain has [...]
Sox find a broom, sweep the Cubs for the first time in more than a decade
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 [...]
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 [...]
