Sox do a lot of yard work in Toronto

Good news for the Sox as Paul Konerko will be back in the lineup on Friday. The Captain has been out the past few days after suffering a mild concussion against the Royals. Like I said a few writings ago, you can’t, you won’t keep Konerko down for long. I was watching Dwayne Wise the [...]

Sox continue to be movers and shakers

The Sox, well Ken Williams, did it again. Seeing that his rotation needs an upgrade, the Sox GM went out and picked up Francisco Liriano from the Twins for Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez. It was another in a series of great moves. Kevin Youkilis, Brett Myers and now Liriano. And he almost got Zack [...]

Sox stick it to the Twins

After a mostly east coast trip the White Sox came home and took care of business, and the Minnesota Twins. For 3 games the Sox looked every bit of a playoff team. Clutch offense, good defense and timely pitching. Lets go with the offense. The last time I wrote I pointed out that Paul Konerko’s [...]

Sox are now in 2nd after being swept in Detroit

You all excited about the Brett Myers deal? It was a shrewd move by GM Ken Williams. The guys he gave up to get Myers may, or may not, make an impression in the bigs. What we do know is Myers is a legitimate big league pitcher. Myers fills a gaping hole that right now [...]

Sox do what they were supposed to do in KC

We learned quite a bit about the Sox in the 3 games PASB (post all-star break). Adam Dunn brought his hitting shoes to Kansas City. That’ll show Ron Washington for not giving him an at bat in the mid-season classic. Dunn went yard 3 times in the 3 games, and now sits atop all of [...]

Sox turn 3 wins, into 2 losses

Chris Sale, Phil Humber and Jose Quintana pitched this weekend for the Sox. I expected them to win 2, if not all 3 from the Dodgers. The one I was most nervous about was Friday’s game, only because Clayton Kershaw was throwing for the Dodgers. Sox led in every game, sometimes by 2 or more [...]

Say cheese, Sox gets jacked by Colby

I wonder if Phil Humber’s rotation spot could be in jeopardy? After one more less than impressive start, I wonder if Robin Ventura will move Mr. Perfect game to the pen once John Danks is activated from the DL. If Jose Quintana continues to pitch like he has, it has to be a possibility. Gavin [...]

Courtney Hawkins is excited, literally, to be part of the Sox organization

I think you have all heard by now that the Sox selected 13th in this year’s baseball draft. The last time they picked that spot, they grabbed Chris Sale, who has everyone in the Sox organization doing flips. This year, the Sox nabbed outfielder Courtney Hawkins out of Carroll High School in Corpus Christi, Texas. [...]
