In what had to be the most insane actions of an umpire in years Joe West called two balks on Mark Buehrle today and tossed both Buehrle and Ozzie. Hey Joe, we don’t come to see you umpire. I know that’s hard to believe. Steve Stone and Hawk showed the replays multiple times and Stoney [...]

The team has been playing poorly, I don’t need to tell any of you that. The pitching overall has been fantastic and John Danks pitched his heart out again last night. It was sad to see the Sox not be able to put some runs on the board. The best chance that I think they [...]
I’m as big of a Bobby Jenks fan as there is. Got the t-shirts, have a jersey, think the guy has done the job in the past with flying colors. This year, Bobby is having issues and in my opinion has had more than enough time to work them out at closer level. Ozzie seemed [...]
Monday night’s win against the Royals was big for a couple of reasons. The first is that Jake Peavy looked like he was back to being Jake Peavy. He threw the ball hard with plenty of movement and kept the Royals off balance all night long. The guy is a gamer and he’s fun to [...]
Wow, I can’t believe it’s April 25th and this is the first series the White Sox won all season! They did it in dramatic fashion by sweeping the Seattle Mariners on two walk-off blasts and then an 8th inning blast today from Paul Konerko. Bobby Jenks made it interesting, but he’s 4 for 4 in [...]
Andruw Jones might be 33 years old, but he doesn’t look like he’s lost a step from his prime days with the Braves. He was the star of the show on his birthday last night hitting a massive home run off the left field foul pole in the first and then popping another home run [...]
As I said in my last post, we’re only two and a half weeks into the season and it’s too early to jump off any bridges… yet. But there are some VERY troubling stats coming out of the south side in the hitting department. As a team right now we suck, and I didn’t realize [...]
Hey everyone, I don’t think there’s a ChiSox fan on the planet that doesn’t know we’ve gotten off to a tough start this season. It’s still to early to throw anyone under the bus or jump off any ledges, but I think we’ve got to keep our eyes on the problem areas. It seems that [...]
I think the baseball gods just had some fun with the Blue Jay faithful yesterday. They had been booing Alex Rios passionately over the first two games of the series, chanting “Alex Rios Sucks” because, I guess, their team put him on waivers last year and traded him away. So who else would you expect [...]
Last night in Toronto the White Sox broke a 10 game losing streak in the Rogers Center thanks in large part to Mark Teahen. Teahen, who came over from the Royals, has struggled in the spring and over this first week of the season. Last night, he broke out big! It seems every time the [...]
