Winning 3 or 4 out of 4 would be amazing and be a big statement here. A split would fine. 0-1 wins would be a disaster. I guess we'll find out.

These guys have had our number. Waiting for us to buck that trend. Would prefer a 3 game set as 2/3 is more probably than 3/4...but let's see what we can do.

The more of these games the better as we grow into...DA JUGGERNAUT.

Lol. I fear your team, they are legit. As ive been saying from the begining, this team could win 20 games or they could win 40 (not sure the exact number i used but the sentiment remains) it all matters on how fast you all can gel. Yall gelled fast, i want nothing to do with ya come playoff time.

I don't like to play the arrogance card...but if we get pitching, yeah, we're a very dangerous team. We've got just way too much potential offense to see it any other way. Of course, now I've done it and jinxed us hard...but just trying to be real after watching pretty much every game this season.

The White Sox are playing with uncommon focus. They are hungry for success and don't want to spoil this chance to achieve. Right now - I don't expect any teams really wants to play them. The Twins are great competition and a recent White Sox nemesis. Enjoy the games - I expect they will be well played.

Surprisingly, the Sox team ERA is now second only to Cleveland's. We'd probably have to go back to '05 to find our pitching that highly ranked.

Dane Dunning is my hero...but yeah, we're still 6-9 vs teams with a winning record (and I'm being generous as it's 7-11 if we include the Cardinals)

No one's discounting the inability of the Sox being able to whup the winning teams. Why do you think I've been pressing the issue that these final 14 games to close out the season are brutal and why I consider this final stretch to be virtual playoffs. 11 of them are against teams who will be in the postseason. This is where the rubber meets the road. Mr Toad has nothing on our upcoming ride.

It'll be "But we haven't won a playoff series in over a decade" after we end this run 10-4. ;)

Ha...My old lady is only 41...same age as me....So def younger. But, Nancy is one of 3 women I would leave her for.

Nancy

And the Barefoot Contessa

All of these women would ensure my infidelity.
