fathom Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jul 21, 2012 -> 02:28 AM) Anyone else get the feeling we're watching the end of our season? I hope not, but it could've started with Cody Ross' bat flip last night Disagree, losing to Verlander is no big shame. All it takes is one win Saturday or Sunday to go back to the Cell in first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jul 21, 2012 -> 02:30 AM) Beckham is back to being bad at the plate. Looks completely lost. At least he swung hard and pulled a ball today. He's looked terrible since the game he got put in the 9th spot in the lineup. He's absolutely a candidate for a change of scenery trade this offseason.

Feeky Magee Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Two incredibly frustrating defeats in a row following a laugher. Ugh. 3.5 into .5 in 3 days. Jinx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very confident team that sounds like they're going to add a starting pitcher by the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean like what happens after the ASB seemingly every year with the Sox? I'd love to see a stat comparing OPS before and after the ASB for the Sox since 2003.

JohnCangelosi Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Well it looks like its academic, since we brought in a scrub to face Cabrera and Fielder.

Unfortunately, Ventura has really no reliable options out there right now. You get the feeling KW's going to have to overpay for a veteran reliever.

caulfield12 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Bill Melton is right. The White Sox just don't any relievers who can consistently throw offspeed pitches. Doesn't matter how hard you throw, you will get torched in the big leagues, especially when you get behind in the count. That and the fact that Konerko's hitting about .230 with no power for the last 40-45 games and Adam Dunn is quickly closing in on .200. It would be a mistake to make any big trades to try to save this season IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
