These guys just keep making things hard on themselves, I guess they just can't get on a hot sizzling streak, 2 wins in a row seems to be their ceiling. Blew a big chance last night to move closer to the Twins as both Minny and the Guards lost.
Poor Cueto, if I were him I'd sue his teammates for non-support.Now coming up to bat for the White Sox is the Mighty Mite, Nelson Fox.

Pathetic on parade again. These guy must love being in a rental boat where they have to keep bailing the water to catch that prize Muskie. They got handed a gift, dropped the box and stepped on it.

Another pathetic offensive showing, but this time against a string of LHP instead of the usual RHP issues. I don't think they had a single extra-base hit, and this the day after their only extra-base hit was the difference in the game. BALL IN AIR, fellas.
The other obvious problem was Vaughn costing more runs with his bad defense. Hopefully starting tomorrow Robert will be in CF nearly every day, Vaughn can get most of the time at DH, and we can cut down on this nonsense. We're still going to have to see Sheets from time to time though - this issue isn't going away completely.
On the bright side, Cueto was solid again, and Robert had a couple excellent plate appearances where he got behind in the count and battled back to work a walk. He should have had a 3rd walk later in the game but the ump blew the call. Then unfortunately he started flailing away in his last AB to end the game, but I think that was more situational that he was trying to tie the game with one swing.

I didn’t like the call to let Cueto finish the game. Needed a strikeout and should have went to one of our power arms in the pen. Vaughn needs to be at first with Jose DH.
I think overall we are a really mentally weak team. You see it in the lack of clutch hitting, lack of effort, no one being comfortable carrying the team for an extended stretch. This is a team that just doesn’t know how to win or what it takes. There’s no passion.

This team needs some hard "soul searching" and leadership. The wRC+ for Garcia is 43, Grandal is 55, and Moncada is 69. This is horrible. Why are these guys on the roster? Okay, I know why but Hahn/Williams really have to address the poor performers in the off-season. Team leadership is another problem. TLR is not an inspiration or leader even when he's not asleep. Our only hope is Tony calls it quits after the season. This was going to be the year for us but ..... I'm so depressed.

I'm so depressed.stuff coming from the pie holes of we faithful stems from the fact of the PT Barnum crap we were sold about this being “The Year”. If this were any other Sox team 3 games out at this time playing .500 ball we would all be Go Go Going out of our minds and crushing on them like a schoolgirl.
Who knows, these guys have one good month, we can buy a new ball cap, pennant and cry in our beer in the playoffs.

Lack of clutch hitting led to the Sox stranding 23 runners last night, Mighty Moncada stranded 6.
Moncada also drove in one of two rums last night and was the only guy todo it with 2 outs.Riding Shotgun on the Sox Bandwagon since before there was an Internet...
