QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jun 23, 2016 -> 05:04 PM) Stings but 3/4 is still good. It's not that 3/4 isn't good.. is how we lost this last game. It's not really the loss it's how it was loss.

The pressing with a runner on 3rd s*** has to end NOW.

Terrible loss.

Sorry but the terrible situational hitting over the past few years is at least somewhat on the coaching staff. Whatever they tell them isn't working... if they are even saying anything.

Maybe, maybe not.

Quintana is his own worse enemy half the time... He nibbled and walks and walks. As soon as he gets runs he give them right back. He is the guy that they should trade. He is good enough to get something.

Baseball is such a weird game.

QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 09:04 PM) Why should we fire Robin? Did Robin make Putnam walk the bases loaded? Did he make Robertson incapable of completing an inning yesterday? Said he make Shields historically s***ty? Robin isn't perfect, but he is not the reason this team sucks. Because he has done nothing to lose... and he has been here 4 years. No one thinks it all on him at all.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 08:58 PM) I actually feel sorry for Robin more than despise him. He has to watch this crap every night. He is making a ton of money as well to watch one of the most dysfunctional teams in modern Sox history. Find a way to lose, this team will lose. Robin is part of the suck... he is the Shepard of these cowpies.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 08:41 PM) Avila has struggled all year hitting anything slow. He had no chance tonight, absolutely ridiculous that he got to bat there. I think not firing Ventura is because it makes them look wrong for hiring him ... and/or removes their fall g

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 08:20 PM) Yeah Jason Coats is a huge threat too. Dick is correct... Coats bunting made sense.

Nearly every batter that gets up there with a runner on 3rd and less than an out just swings at everything and gets themselves out. It's like none of the players or coaches have a F****** brain.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 20, 2016 -> 06:22 PM) 3 terrible defensive plays and still don't score. White Sox baseball. This to me is Robin Ventura and the coaching staff. Year after year.. different players and they all look like they are pressing up there. I think "Just grind it out" isn't working.

I don't get why Saladino hasn't played....

All these people going on and on about "Home grown" talent... That's not really it. The reason the White Sox have been bad is their failure/bad luck in there free agent signings. It's a combo of many different things. A manager who never wanted to be a manger... going after home run hitters that can't make contact... Bad offense... bad offense... bad bull pen... bad offense... bad bull pen.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 19, 2016 -> 03:28 PM) I don't see it. Robin made the right moves. Players didni perform Every big division series they lose... can't fire all the players.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) Team continues to press with RISP. Melky got himself out there. A trademark under Ventura.. I'm sorry but it is. Different players... different years. He doesn't have the magic jelly beans for their heads that's for sure.

Abreu batting .222 with RISP this year. Yikes

QUOTE (ronkark @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 08:27 PM) Ventura announcing Shields will start again "He's gonna figure it out." What an inspiring manager. On Frazier's struggles. "He's gotta grind it out." On the team's struggles: "We just gotta get out there." Another Vince Lombardi, am I right, folks? Wow just wooww... There is no reason for Shields to start again.. not only is he getting hammered he is destroying our bullpen. For F**** sake are these guys kidding? The incompetence is getting monumental.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 09:59 PM) What is he supposed to say? How can he make veterans like Frazier hit better or pitcher's like Shields do better? What want to know is if we were sold damaged goods with Shields? Ventura puts me too sleep when he talks... and his team has played for 4 years like they are asleep. It's not all on him though by any means. It's a bunch of clueless individuals from the very top to the bottom.

Shields isn't a MLB pitcher right now... or probably anymore. Can not send him out there anymore -it's unfair to everyone on the team.

There is NO reason this guy should pitch another game. He is a travesty out there. Stop sending him out there.

He just wins what else is there to say?

Abreu struck out on fast ball down the middle. Frazier and Avila grounded out on a hanging curve balls. Poor Quintana...

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 14, 2016 -> 11:36 PM) What would baby Jesus have been born in if not for the mangers? Probably a cowpie. "Away in a cowpie, just s*** for a bed, the little Lord Jesus just shat where he stood." I don't get it... a turd shat a turd? I laughed though so thanks for that.
