ChiSox59 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Pick up a game on the Twins prior to Thursday and I will be happy. 4 GB heading into a 4 game series. That will likely require 3 out of 4 from Cleveland assuming Twins don't lose both to the Brewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It continues to be all in their own hands but they have to start playing better in their own damn division. Huge 8 games before the break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they somehow go 7-1 (lay off the crack, I know), they'll be in the first place at the ASB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Well, thankfully they are not 12 games back like they were when they were intentionally tanking with a 41-43 record in 2019. So there’s that. AL Central Division 7/4/19 Tm W L W-L% GB RS RA pythW-L% MIN 54 32 .628 -- 486 379 .612 CLE 48 38 .558 6.0 378 366 .515 CHW 41 43 .488 12.0 372 442 .422 DET 28 55 .337 24.5 296 447 .320 KCR 29 59 .330 26.0 373 457 .408 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I don't have a good feeling about this stretch since it seems like the Sox never play well in Cleveland and Minnesota. It is time for them to show they are the best team in the division. It had been assumed the White Sox would coast to a division crown. Obviously, that is not happening.

Balta1701 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 The white Sox have been playing quite well on the road but equally poor against the AL Central. I do not know which of these trends wins out. I do expect that over an 8 game high pressure stretch at least one of these threads will blow up because the manager gives a game away, and I’ll bet there’s a 9th or extra inning win somewhere in here.

Jack, many owe you an apology for ripping on you when you said Cleveland and Minnesota have better teams than the Sox. This prediction was before the season started or very early on if I recall.

It's not hard to stop and look at this last press story as something that is the final straw in the clubhouse with a team that is already having some major problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they come out and shit the bed tonight in embarrassing fashion, I would expect more to leak out. It does feel like a teetering at the brink moment for the clubhouse and possibly the FO.

To say this is a critical week would be an understatement. Based on what we've seen from this team, I am expecting a 3-5 week and heading into the break with a whimper. But I'd love to see 6-2 or better....would sure brighten the outlook and attitude for the 2nd half. Fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 4-4 and 3-5 while not ideal probably moves the needle neither way. While not happy with that, if they go into the break 4.5-6 GB there is still hope. Neither Cleveland or Minnesota are running away with the division.
