Adios Sergio Santos. Sox show their closer the door.

Yep, we all saw this coming. The White Sox just traded Sergio Santos to the Blue Jays for pitching prospect Nestor Molina. I’m trying to figure out why? The Sox recently signed Santos to a 3 year deal with 3 extensions, keeping him under team control for the next 6 years. Maybe it’s to save [...]

Sox stop streaking—on so many levels.

It happened, Finally! The Sox broke their 7 game losing streak. John Danks broke his 3 start losing streak, and the Sox, for the first time this year, beat Bruce Chen. Break out the Champagne. The Sox have now pulled to within 14 of Detroit, pending the outcome of the Tigers game, it could be [...]

Sox implode…again, but now’s not the time to blow out the staff.

Damn that Ozzie Guillen. Put guys in position to succeed. Make the right moves with the bullpen. Manipulate a lineup full of young guys, or guys having horrible seasons, and he blew it again. Yep, time to fire the guy. I am talking about today, against Detroit. For all those calling for his head on [...]

IN fighting, un-INspired play, IN-sure the Sox demise.

Hear that? Wait, there it is again. Oh, that’s the sound I hear. It’s the sound of the Chicago White Sox season collapsing. Let’s see. Ozzie wants a multi-year deal, or may not want to return next year. Rumors about the deteriorating relationship between Ozzie Guillen and General Manager Ken Williams have surfaced. Now here’s [...]

Sox mark the end of their trip with one more win

Starting last Friday, the Sox looked dead in the water. 6 straight losses made even the most hardcore fans start looking toward next year. Come on, 3 games in Minnesota and 4 in Baltimore didn’t give me a lot of confidence that the team would turn it around. But, in something no one could have [...]

Colorado rocks the Sox. Sox rock the Rox.

A turbulent 2 days for the White Sox. Tuesday, I saw another thing I haven’t seen before. It seems to me that when it comes to the White Sox, I am saying that by the day. 13th inning, and Troy Tulowitzki scores all the way from 1st on a bloop single by Ty Wigginton. I [...]

Taking 3 of 4, Sox happy to show the A’s the door.

Thankfully, the A’s are gone, not to be seen until next year. I have highlighted their many injury woes, but I haven’t pointed out their offense is 2nd to last in the American League. That is, except against the Sox, when they become the bay area bashers. They almost came back today. If not for [...]

Santos es muy malo, Sox perdamos

Sox lose 7-5 to the Oakland A’s. The A’s came in having lost 10 straight games, most of their starting pitchers, and Wednesday they dismissed their manager, Bob Geren, but they sure do play the Sox tough. The teams have split their 8 games, with 4 of them decided by one run. And even more [...]
