but it should be interesting nonetheless.
Is this the hitting you're talking about?- P. Ozuna doubled to left - T. Iguchi sacrificed to catcher, P. Ozuna to third - J. Crede safe at first on third baseman M. Lowell's fielding error - J. Thome walked, J. Crede to second - P. Konerko grounded into double play third to second to first, J. Thome out at second - End of Inning (0 Runs, 1 Hit, 1 Error)Green94 said:On September 5th I can officially say that this season is over. The team can't hit. I thought the Tigers hitting would do them in, but man this is getting ridiculous. I don't see any way that they make the playoffs right now.
Pretty much. And only could Javy Vazquez have 7 K's in the first 4 innings and be losing.Is this the hitting you're talking about?- P. Ozuna doubled to left - T. Iguchi sacrificed to catcher, P.

The Twin's will obviously win the Central, but with the Tigers folding right now, the White Sox definately are still in the wild card race.The White Sox are ***officially*** out of the Wild CardUnless the Sox completely fall apart, I still think the wildcard comes down to that last series.Good to see all of the Twins fans chiming in

GRID why are you signing in as Steve Poulydumbous? Have you given up on the Sux?
Don't waste your time waiting around for it.
Time to focus our attention on DA BEARSWhite Sox fans - it definitely is tough to watch this team playing the way it is, but let's not jump off the ship yet.
We shall remember this moment with laughter once we are celebrating yet another World Series Championship in the downtown streets of Chicago!
So everyone, stop
I wouldn't be surprised if this weekend ends with the Twins leading the division.

Javy and Jose looked good the past few days as well as Big Jon continuing to roll this season. Nice to see the hitting show up tonight as well... too inconsistent for me though.White Sox Win!

Tigers are falling apart, Twins are hit or miss without Santana on the mound, let's get this bus moving!

The Sox need Detroit to win and keep winning. No chance to catch the Tigers.
Really, though, none of this matters unless the White Sox can take 3 of 4 vs. the Tribe. I don't care if Sabathia is pitching on Sunday, this is not the time to be splitting series, and playing average/below average ball.At some point, they need to win 9 of 11, 8 of 10 instead of the 6 of 9 losses after tonight's game.
Yeah noone has ever made up 3.5 games in 3 weeks. Question: What do the 2006 Tigers and 69 Cubs have in common? Answer: Everything. Go Sox. Although I would much rather have the Tigs in the playoffs rather than the Twinks.Green94 said:
They don't HAVE to move anybody, but I think they would like to if they can get some younger pitchers in return, and free up some $$$ from the pitcher they would be moving.
I'd like them to have a nasty pitching staff. If they can get better pitching, I'm all for it. But I don't see why a team who is a contender would want to unload veterans for prospects. I don't want to see some experiement in the rotation with a younger, unproven guy just because he is cheap. Unless they have lost confidence in a guy like Vasquez or Garcia and don't feel they are worth what they are paying them, I don't see a move to prospects as necessarily a good thing. Detroit had success with their young guys, but I'd imagine a prospect the caliber of Verlander would cost more than Garcia or Vasquez. The only hole I see is center, but I seem to be in the minority with my criticism of Anderson compared to most Sox fans.
I'm in agreement with you for the most part, but I do believe that McCarthy can step in and pitch no worse than what we saw in the rotation from Garcia, Vasquez etc. So, from that line of thought, they could keep the rotation as strong as last year, get McCarthy out of the bullpen, and add 1 or 2 high level prospects because it's unlikely the Sox are going to be in the free agent market much for starting pitching, given that they don't offer anything beyond 3-4 years tops.Don't be surprised if the Sox, should they trade, get a top level prospect back - there are so many teams desperate for veteran starters, and Chicago has a few with proven track records.
I could see a trade of a starter for some bullpen help. They look scary thin there. If they do move a vet and get McCarthy out of the pen, they had better get some relievers. I can't believe they let Cotts go. There seems to be a huge void there, especailly if they do put McCarthy in the rotation.
