AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!

This is exactly what the Sox look like when they play as the roster was designed. Great pitching, a bomb from Dunn, Beckham and Rios contributing, and solid defense.

 

Oh, and congrats to Dunn for not making history!

The "pop" from Dunns bat this season is incredible, the sound of him hitting some of these homers is amazing. Great win by Gavin, and a nice hold by Thornton. It was nice to see Thornton trust his breaking pitch and getting Hosmer to bite on it.

Watching the A's game tonight against the Tigers, made me wish we'd traded Santos to the Red Sox so we could have acquired Reddick.

 

That guy's been playing awfully well, especially considering half his games are played at a mausoleum where the ball doesn't carry well at night or in the cold marine layer.

 

Of course, that would mean Viciedo would be blocked (again), but Reddick would have given us a much better and balanced outfield defensively, too. And it would have afforded us the luxury of being able to trade Dunn and plug in Viciedo into the DH spot. So now we're stuck wondering if we can be competitive in 2013/2014 or whether it would be better to clear Adam's contract right now. It's hard to argue that it would be a wise move unless you want to run off the remaining season ticket holders left.

 

But oh well. Just hope Molina comes through as promised. And it's crazy to be back in that "short term/win now" mentality...seems like we always get suck backed right in, except for last year when you never really felt they were playing together as a team or were going to be a charge at 1st despite puttering along for 3-4 months without putting the rest of the division away.
