I would hope that after this season, the following are long gone from this organization:

 

- Ventura

- Bell

- Cooper

 

Cooper probably isn't bad at his job like the other two are, but I think it's time for a new voice with the pitching.

KW on my list!

Who's next on the Reinsdorf "No Experience But Loyal To The End" list to replace these guys?

Lousy pitching. Shark continues to be mediocre and Zach finally got hit and hit hard. White Sox currently remain a lousy baseball team.

Avi with the unusual 0-for-5.

 

Flame away but I will not miss Shark when we deal him at the break. I mean he's a battler, don't get me wrong, but like Peavy, he's hittable, very hittable.

Just when you start to believe in them, they break your hearts again.

 

Almost would have been better getting blown out, sign.

 

 

Because that at least gives them the 'ol, "well, they fought back and made it a game...just expended too much energy in tying it, etc." argument for protecting the status quo.

No it wouldn't have been. The offense can still build off their momentum. A blowout could have been disastrous.

Has he kept them healthy though, outside of Sale/Q? Floyd and Danks both had catastrophic injuries, and Peavy was injured a lot during his time here.

 

Crain and Nate Jones, too.

 

Actually, a lot of the credit should go to Herm Schneider, Allen Thomas (Director of Conditioning/Strength/Weight Training).

There is no momentum in baseball, I keep hearing repeated by the statisticians.

 

Momentum is simply that day or night's starting pitchers.

Thome or Konerko.

 

Richard Dotson...

 

 

I know Konerko isn't ready...and they can't possible force Thome on the fanbase after this, not without any official minor league managerial experience.

 

Going with Dave Martinez would be cool since his mentor's on the north side of town and he's a former Sox. Sandy Alomar, Jr., was a finalist the last time as well.

At least it was an enjoyable game. Crowd was into it, at least it sounded that way on my mlb. I have such low expectations this season I enjoyed the final few innings.

There were some very good signs from the offense (mainly, Eaton remembering the season started). Just have to get the pitching to at least put up decent numbers to give the offense a chance.

Resurgence of Eaton was nice. I'm not trying to be a dick, but I see tonight's loss as a bad baseball team playing OK, simply getting beat. Bad teams usually get beat in one area or another. Finally get some run production, so the pitching sucks. It's usually always something, at least on the road for this abysmal road team.

Sox double season run average and lose!

If we have to go the former player route, I wouldn't mind Thome being interim the rest of this season. I still want Gardy/LaRussa/Leyland, one of those 3. I personally think LaRussa is ready to come back and the proper wooing by Jerry could land him.

Cannot see LaRussa leaving his executive gig to be Sox manager under any circumstance.

Does he miss the dugout? It's addictive and these guys have huge egos. Sox fans would worship him like Cub fans worship Maddon.

Jerry will want Ozzie back. Hopefully Joey Cora is available as well.

If this happens, I am 100% done with this franchise. I will sell all my s***, and start cheering for the DBacks.
