If getting swept 3 straight weekends is getting your Karma back..........I do not want it. Hawk is just spewing nonsense today.

 

 

We are just having a bad game/stretch folks. There is a lot of baseball yet to be played this season

The odds of a .467 team losing 12 Saturdays in a row...approximately 1.5 times in 10,000.

 

On the verge of losing 7 consecutive road games and 8 consecutive games in the AL Central.

 

I'd say it's a pretty bad stretch.

 

 

If that's the best available marketing tagline or motto/slogan for the 2nd half, they're going to be lucky to end up with 1.6 million for attendance.

20 years since the last time the Twins swept the White Sox in a four game series. 1994.

 

Amazingly, it never happened from 2001-2004, 2006, 2009-10.

 

 

Burton warming up for Minnesota.

Suzuki with 8 hits this series.

If they do trade Alexei, they better get a hell of a haul or it will set the organization back for a few years.

 

Why would it set them back? They clearly need to add more talent to their system, and he's their best trade chip right now. If the Sox believe Sanchez can play competent defense at SS, I don't think Alexei is an untouchable.

How so? He's worth a couple of wins a year and is 32.

They should be shopping him.

Nobody is untouchable.

 

The Sox don't have anyone who can replace Alexei's defense at SS along with his offensive production at SS. Good shortstops are very hard to find. The upgrade from the other players you got in exchange for Alexei would have to be very high to compensate for the downgrade you would suffer at one of the most important positions on the field.
