caulfield12 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) White Sox hope to ride momentum from strong week (mlb.com) “Yeah, it’s been fantastic. Everyone playing for the team, playing for each other,” said White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito, who suffered the loss Sunday. “If one guy doesn’t get the job done, the next guy steps up and we have full confidence he’ll get the job done. So, just having that mentality coming together as a team. If we keep that up, we’ll put ourselves in a good position.” “We play the way we played this week, watch out,” said White Sox acting manager Miguel Cairo, whose team fell to 6-7 vs. Minnesota this year. “We’re going to have a pretty good chance, and the guys are excited about going out there. But it was a good game today. We battled back. We gave it our best and fell short." Edited September 5, 2022 by caulfield12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I have nothing against enthusiasm and optimism or "playing for each other." But the fact remains, we are early into September, and the team is still at .500. There are still more hills to climb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Sound like a rerun of a few weeks ago when they beat up on Detroit, had a nice win vs. Houston then a tough loss when too many were focused on it not being a loss but a good loss. The next day it was 21-5, and the losing continued. I'll buy in if they get 2 out of 3 here. But right now they are .500 playing one of the easiest schedules possible. Not just with non contenders, but real easy travel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just with non contenders, but real easy travel. They have to be tied or leading go into the final 9 games. Minnesota now faces their long-time nemesis in the New York Yankees with Judge on an almost unreal tear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black jack Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I've been almost out for weeks. Hopefully they lose the next 3 so I can pull the band aid quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact remains, we are early into September, and the team is still at .500. There are still more hills to climb. Agreed. Sox are the same as they have been all year, .500 is the ceiling. Now can the team possibly have one amazing month, get hot and shred .500? Maybe but highly doubtful. Don't forget just a couple weeks ago Sox lost 4 of 5 to KC counting that funky one gamer in KC. Then Sox woke up and took 2 of 3 from woeful KC at the Cell and finally had a good week under Miguel. I'm all for getting hot for a month, riding the momentum teams usually get when they get rid of a horrible manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
