Posted in I don’t have much to say about last night except I was wrong. I thought the real Dylan Axelrod would show up, not the one who threw 40 pitches in the 1st inning. Right now the Nats are better than the Sox. Once again Washington waited until the 4th inning to do the lions share [...]

Hey, the Sox can’t win em all
What, did you think the Sox would win em all? Like that old song I can’t remember said, “Two outta three ain’t bad.” I criticized the Jeff Keppinger signing because I didn’t think he was a full-time 3rd baseman from the defensive standpoint. He has made the hard plays look easy, and the easy plays [...]
Sox win game one–just 161 left
Once again proving that spring stats mean nothing, the Kansas City Royals led the Cactus and Grapefruit league with 230 runs. Today they scored zero. I estimated that Chris Sale would win between 14 and 16 games. If he pitches like he did today, he’ll win 32. His recently signed 5-year, 32-million dollar contract might [...]
Hustle and flow–that’s the 2012 edition of the White Sox
If anyone questioned how much the Sox want the division title, all they had to do to was watch today’s game against the Tigers. BTW: For the uninformed–Sox won 5-4. Alex Rios is playing like a man possessed. His take out of Omar Infante in the 5th inning was easily the play of the game. [...]
Sox rock the Twins, continue their roll
Like I said, Adam Dunn will return this weekend and torch the Twins. I didn’t have the guy returning until the end of the year, like 5 or so games left. As usual, I was wrong. Dunn came back with a vengeance, even smacking his 39th home run of the year. Twins suck, so the [...]
The Birds peck away at the Sox, take 3 of 4
If you were in Vegas and had the choice to put money on which Sox starter would get a win over the Orioles, would any of you have put cash on Dylan Axelrod? What’s the word? I guess surprising would be the one I am looking for, that Axelrod would be the guy to stifle [...]
Thank’s to Flowers Sox come up smelling like a rose
The sign of a good team–at least to me–is one that not only gets up for high end opponents, but also finds the motivation to crush struggling one’s too. I think most would have understood if the Sox played down to the Mariners over the weekend. Coming after the Sox sweep of the Yankees, and [...]
Sox Sale-ing right along, take a broom to the Yankees
Early August 1991, the Sox swept the Yankees in a 3-game set in Chicago. No one knew that it would take more than 21 years to do it again. In August 1991, Robin Ventura was a star 3rd baseman. Playing to his left was another pretty good player in short stop Ozzie Guillen. Who knew [...]
