Optimism abounds as the Sox open 2012

84-78. I may be living in crazy land, but that will be the record the Sox finish with in 2012. To me, it is a freakin’ joke that some pundits have predicted 95 losses for the Sox. The Sox are set at every position, not without question marks, but set nonetheless. The closer is still [...]

Kenny Williams (Jr.) comes through for the Sox when they most need him

After Chicago exploded for 6 runs (6 runs for the Sox is an explosion) in Surprise, things have taken a turn for the worse the past 2 games. A great crowd came out for the Sox-Cubs tilt on Friday. It really is a fun time at Camelback Ranch when these two meet. The park is [...]

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. [...]

Dunn should be done with talking about last year.

All but 2 players are in Sox camp as of Sunday, the 26th. Dayan Viciedo and Paul Konerko are the lone holdouts. Konerko should stay out as long as possible, because the second he walks in he’ll be mobbed by the media. I’m sure Viciedo will as well, but Konerko is the man on the [...]

Sox quietly building quite a team

Day 3 of White Sox camp was relatively quiet. Manager Robin Ventura appears to be acclimating himself rather nicely. He is so non-discript, I guess I’ll compare him to a ninja. There have been times when I don’t see him at all, but seconds later I look and he’s standing right next to me. The [...]

It’s only one day, but optimism abounds at Sox camp.

You may think I am crazy, but I think this Sox team is going to be better than most expect. I don’t think they’re are going to win 100 games, but I do believe they will compete for the Central Division title. I am basing that on nothing. It wasn’t like the players went through [...]

Sox tab Tom Ace….I mean Ventura (Robin) as their next manager

It came down quickly, “The Sox name Ventura Manager”. I knew he was a good pet dick, but I didn’t think he did humans. Ohh, sorry, that’s the wrong Ventura. You ever watch a baseball game and see a pitcher throw a perfect curve ball? I’m talking aone that buckles the hitters knees, while it [...]
