Sox dismal season brings out the stupidity in others.

About a week left in the Sox season, and the winds of change are blowing. Ozzie gone, Greg Walker gone, blah, blah, blah. I read this nugget on the internet today: When will Ozzie Guillen get fired? I’m tired of him, the Sox need to change things if they want to succeed. Kenny Williams and [...]

In a season full of promise, Sox go home empty-handed.

To Quote Hawk Harrelson, “It’s over”! Really not much of a news flash. This season teetered on the brink of disaster most of the year. At least now, the team can start focusing on next year. I keep reading that Ozzie is all but gone. I still don’t agree with it, but 8 years is [...]

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 [...]

Please Detroit, LEAVE TOWN!

Ok, I get it, Detroit is the best team in the Central. In nearly a replay from last Sunday, the Tigers went double digits on the Sox on Monday, beating them by 10, 14-4. They also had 21 hits. That was their 10th straight victory. Carlos Quentin made his return from the DL. He went [...]

Sox take a walk about, almost come up empty

Good to see the Sox making the move that I expected them to make. Jake Peavy is done for the season. Peavy, who returned after a possible career ending lat injury, finished the season with a 7-7 record, and a 4.92 ERA. That is not even close to what he used to be, but for [...]

Sox go to Minnesota, discover they love Twins

After the beat-down administered by the Detroit Tigers over the weekend, the Sox wanted to go somewhere, or should I say, anywhere else. The baseball gods took them to Minnesota, to play a Twins team that is playing for next year. The Sox have taken advantage of the downtrodden Twins, winning the first 3 games [...]

Youth was served in the finale in Seattle

I’ll admit it, it’s just 1 game in August of the 2011 season, but that Dayan Viciedo kid is pretty good. Let’s see a bloop single, 3-run home run, and a walk in his first game in a Sox uniform this year. He also looked pretty comfortable out in right, especially when he caught Ichiro’s [...]

Sox find a winning combination in the Emerald City.

The White Sox have finally found someone they can beat up. The Seattle Mariners are building what appears to be a pretty good team, but they are not there yet. The Sox haven’t done a lot, but they still have won the first 2 games of the 3 game series. Unfortunately, the Detroit Tigers refuse [...]
