oldsox Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Why does Robin even put Dunn in the lineup? He looks disinterested, not that I blame him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Sep 18, 2013 -> 10:49 PM) 2-8 sounds good to me. 100 losses. Wow. One of the worst baseball teams in Chicago history. Wonder how long before we sniff contention again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickofypres Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 18, 2013 -> 07:52 PM) 33rd 1 run loss. If they could somehow build a decent offense and shore up the defense next year, they can play meaningful games. I was trying to find their W-L record in 1 run games. Any idea what it is? I kept coming up short. EDIT: Nevermind, 22-33 Edited September 19, 2013 by whitesox901 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they win half of those games they're sitting at 76-76 Tells me that with the addition of a few new pieces they can turn it around real quick.

Get all the 1-run losses out of the way this year, so the baseball gods smile on the Sox in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks disinterested, not that I blame him. There are about 27 guys on this roster that are disinterested right now, and yet you pick out Adam f***ing Dunn. Jesus Christ. The guy could hit a 700 foot ultimate grand slam, save a child from drowning in Lake Michigan, help an elderly lady cross the road, and be the designated driver that night and you'd say "Why didn't he stop at Taco Bell? It's like he's not even trying anymore." I'm sure he's as interested as anybody could be on a team that's 30 games below .500 Edited September 19, 2013 by witesoxfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Konerko did say the team was s*** before they traded players away.

That's been a Konerko thing his whole career though, and now he's old. I've never felt like he has dogged it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, I was going to specifically mention Rios when it came to dogging it. Don't get me wrong, I actually really do like Rios as a player, but of any players I've ever seen, he is the one that sticks out as a guy who was simply disinterested at times.
