Ducksnort Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Didn't watch all weekend. Won't be watching tomorrow either with all the festivities. But damn it if they didn't rope me back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the rope for me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeC Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Liking Cueto going as the calm veteran presence today. High stakes series, and the whole team knows it. It’s like we’ve been procrastinating for exam week, and now it’s upon us… except it’s an entire month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 If the White Sox think they are the best team in the AL Central, now is the time to show it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) The big boys need to show up. When 3 of your 4 best hitters in the last 2 weeks are Zavala, Sheets and Harrison guys like Vaughn, Robert, Tim,Pollock and Moncada need to step it up. Those other 3 guys and Abreu need the help. Who knows maybe we see Eloy here today too. In his last 113 PA Robert has walked 2 times for a measly 1.8 % walk rate. On the year it's 2.9% , the same as Leury Garcia.

Texsox Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I'm feeling a sweep so we can finally forget about winning anything this year. Hopefully it's bad enough for Tony to leave the dugout for the last time in his long and storied career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrankinSox Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 The next 3 weeks feature 15 games vs Minn and Cleveland. I predict sox will be in first place at the end of that stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I’d be satisfied if the Sox are 54-50 a month from now. 16-11 the next 27…minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no longer early. The weather is fine. No more excuses. If they are still in 3rd place, then there’s a problem. In 2006, the White Sox were right there going into August. Then got lapped. Or look at the 2012 White Sox, or 2008, or 2003. August and September tell the tale, as long as you don’t lose sight of the leaders in April/May. Anything is possible. But they have to at the very least play better than .500 against the Twins from here on out, since they’re already 1-7.

If jimenez comes back they'll probably send Burger down so unless Eloy is back in 2019/2020 form it's a wash or even a downgrade if he performs like he did so far this season. Let's hope he comes back raking right from the get-go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more can he out produce Sheets/Haseley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they send Sheets down for Eloy and sending down Hasely who can play outfield, for Jimenez who should play mostly DH, wouldn't be wise (although that never stops the Sox management). With Eloy back, Burger will probably get even less ABs than he has since Moncada's been back and he's too valuable to have just sitting on the bench doing nothing. He needs to be playing every day to get his ABs and he can play 3B every day at Charlotte to improve his defense and be ready to come back up and contribute if Yoan gets injured again.

flavum Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if they postponed tonight’s game because of the shooting/active shooter situation. It would be justified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're going to cancel for something like that, they should probably move far away from Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
