seems like the sox coaching staff makes the weirdest pitching changes in crucial situations

robert's bad fuckup in center cost us the game. it's bad enough he can't hit!

SHIT!~

We peaked... and now we're just looking brutal. Just utterly brutal.

We're going to drop all the way down to like the 6th or 7th seed.

Fun little run. That being said - you have to keep in perspective that it was less than a 30 game stretch. Which isn't a lot in a normal season.

We're still trending in a good direction. But we ain't all that, yet.


Robert and Moncada are just... done. I don't think they'll hit again this season. Regroup and hope they're ready for 2021.

Renteria, despite being manager (shouldn’t be), shouldn’t be allowed to make pitching decisions.

Man...What a downer last night was...but it is what it is. Screw it. I'm still on the house money train...so let's right this mofo tonight and put this garbage streak behind us. Giolito vs. Lieber. My body is ready.

PS. My condolences to Mingo and his 40 win dream. I really wanted you to be right my man...and it looked ever-so-plausible for a few days there...

Last night's game ripped my heart out. Damnation!

Time to remind everyone how it turned out in 2005. At season end the Sox went on a miserable losing streak - played awful baseball - recovering only in the last week of the season. Yet, the Sox tore through the playoffs and won the World Series.

These kind of streaks come in every season - they are magnified because of the short season - just like the White Sox run of good played was magnified.

Go Sox!

Even though we had our hearts ripped out last night, it's nice to have a team good enough that our hearts can even be ripped out...

It has been way too long since I felt this way about a Sox loss. Losses like these make the winning that looks to be coming our way feel so much better. But I'm tired this morning after suckass sleep last night following that sh*t loss...so they owe us one tonight. Papa Jiddy wants some sound beauty rest this evening.

I'm less worried about winning the division now than I am falling to the 7th seed. This is getting creepy.

We aren’t used to winning so we got all excited when they shot their wad last month and are now slowly coming back to earth as we watch the Sox seemingly play baseball with their eyes closed losing 5/6.

Tigers: WE WILL NOT LOSE.

Indians/Twins: Please win. Please. Pleeeaaassseee.

Here's something to chew on - the seeding doesn't matter - in the sense that there is no home team - no advantage for being #1 in these playoffs.

Getting back on track is the most important thing.

Abreu looked like his dog died after the game last night.

To paraphrase great Jack Nicholson and even greater Joker: "This team needs an enema."

Cleveland played with a look on their faces that knew they had our number all night. We gotta put those b*tches in their place. I wouldn't shed one tear if we play them come playoff time. Win or lose, I'm ready for our boys to build that anger and resentment (rivalry) toward a team and turn the anger that comes from losing to them into grinding in 2021 and overcoming. That's what winners do.

moncada with another leadoff triple. dare we hope?

 

[Jiddy]

Ok...Moncada should not be playing if hes gassed running the bases once
