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 [...]

Royals had their fill of Phil, but loved the Sox pen
Good news. After 3 real bad starts, Phil Humber pitched great! Pitching in to the 7th inning, Humber only gave up 4 hits and 1 run, while striking out 7. The bullpen was another thing. Matt Thornton is going through a bad stretch right now. relieving Humber, Thornton came in with a man on, and [...]
Take 2–that’s exactly what the Indians did to the Sox

The no hitter was over two batters later. The shutout went kaput after batter 4. It was fun while it lasted. [...]

Let the (Sox) games begin
My apologies to you all for not updating from White Sox camp. 10-15 hour days over the past 10 days knocked me out. However, that is behind me. All my video is logged, and I got some good sleep. Now it’s time to update. When I think of past camps, there were stories a plenty. [...]
