In a world gone mad the Nats take a broom to the Sox

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 [...]

Flowers in bloom as the Sox take game two

Watched a regular season game today, and a spring game broke out. The Sox didn’t look as sloppy as they did today on any day in February or March. Dayan Viciedo has to call off Alexei Ramirez in the 1st inning before they run into each other. The crowd wasn’t big, or loud so communication [...]

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 [...]

Sox are done, but now it’s time to get started

When my teams are eliminated from post-season play, I just don’t care very much anymore. I love the Sox, but the final 3 games in Cleveland were just spring training games in the fall. I am glad they won 2 of 3, but still. So with the season done, and the players scattering all over [...]

Sox aren’t done, but they might be done

If Al Michaels was in Chicago today he would have said something like, “Do you believe in miracles?” Right now if you’re a White Sox fan, that’s the only thing to hope for. I hate to be a bearer of bad tidings, but I don’t think it’s gonna happen. Back on September 18th, the Sox [...]

Of manny….Sox lose 2, but force the Indians to fire their manager

I took some time before writing so I wouldn’t just be writing from emotion. So there. After laying down for the 4th straight day, the Kansas City Royals got swept by the Tigers on Thursday. Detroit’s lead is now 1 1/2 over the Sox with 7 games remaining. I guess taking 2 of 3 from [...]

Sox living the high-life–with 20 games left they are still in first.

I hate the flu! I wonder, are there people out there who like it? Any of you guys get out and check out Miller beer guy himself, Windell Middlebrooks, on Tuesday? If you did, you found out what I already know. Middlebrooks is a great guy! I met him in Las Vegas as part of [...]
