In 2005, on this date, the expected W-L of the White Sox was 62-42. They were 69-35.
This year, their expected record on August 1 was 65-41 and they are 62-44.
Just some perspective is all. Two tremendously different teams, but this one is still down three starters that can all play at an All-Star level, and we've missed two of them for most of the year.
