Balta1701 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 08:48 PM) Well, the Red Sox and A's are within 1 and 1 1/2 GB. That's why I said yet. The A's actually have a positive run differential so its genuinely surprising that they're this low for now. The Red Sox are in the same boat as us, expensive guys underperforming. They might be the team we have to fight with for the AL basement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) Garcia finally made a really good play in RF to save Danks for now. Wonder how many fans The Shark Tank will have tmrw? Just 930 left to sell, so much for that promotion...doing about as well as The Will to Win and Stir the Drink. At the rate things are going, there will be more sentimental ND/Cubs' fans filling those seats and feeling sorry for the White Sox than actual Sox fans occupying that section.

Balta1701 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Jesus Christ. 2 different innings I've switched channels to a Simpsons rerun during the commercial break, tuned back thinking "ok break should be over", and the White Sox already had 2 outs.

caulfield12 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Cervelli just passed the Triandos record with 53.6 consecutive scoreless now for the Pirates with him catching. Probably the Pirates' worst pitcher, but we're making him look like Bruce Chen/CC Sabathia/Johan Santana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Hurtin Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 08:42 PM) I can't believe some of you guys are following this team day to day still. Kudos to you it's more than I can stomache. With every passing game you just have to wonder how long this coaching staff can hold on. I've very rarely seen such a dead team walking. I played on a few in college and let me tell you it's absolute misery coming to the park. Every guy on this team right isn't having any fun and that is not a recipe for success. At least fire RV and give them someone new to interact with. I say it every f***ing post but seriously they have nothing to lose, it can't get worse. It's not every day that you have a chance to see a perfect game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkness99 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Hawk makes me laugh... when would the "wrong" time have been this year to play us? Even when we won 6 in a row it wasn't like we were dropping 8-10 runs on people. We have been beatable all year... Only wrong time is when Sale pitches.. and even then our offense is such a joke that we can lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeky Magee Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 07:40 PM) Amazing that Avi is in the low 270s now Amazing that people are amazed. He's now at -0.3 WAR, good for his 3rd consecutive year of a minus WAR for the White Sox. And yet Rick Hahn called him "untouchable" in leaked trade talks with the Astros, Kenny Williams is convinced a 30 HR, 30 SB season is right around the corner and just about everyone else associated with the Sox thinks he's a future great too.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 This team is screaming "fire Robin" whether he's at fault or not . Is it Reinsdorf doesn't want to pay his salary through his extension ? I'm at a loss. I keep telling myself maybe this year they will be 2nd half team but that would be quite some turnaround.

If Justin f***ing Smoak can turn it around, anyone f***ing can. There's a cancer somewhere in this ORG wrt to position player development. I'm not sure where to start cutting, but Buddy Bell, all the minor league instructors, and RV would be a good place to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 07:59 PM) Something about deck chairs and the Titanic Micah sucked defensively in an incredibly small sample. He was made the scapegoat for our teamwide defensive issues. He deserved a longer opportunity with us. Unfortunately, we've now given 100 PAs to a guy with a motherf***ing 3 wRC+ b/c we over-reacted to a handful of bad plays from Micah. It was stupid then, looks even more ridiculous now.
