What happened to White Sox's Offence?

[averageg]

Why are the White Sox hitting so poorly this year? It's all been popups. When they're down by 3 or more runs they seem to give up and just swing at the first pitch.

 

[Objection]

they're a softball team when they hit HRs they look great when they don't they can't create runs

 

[averageg]

It's too bad they aren't hitting that many HR's this year lol. 29 HR's for tonight's lineup.. that's like 20 less than Texas' total.

White Sox destroying my Over.

Their a bunch of tools how do you score 0 runs at home against one of the worst pitching teams in baseball

They're performing the same as the time they faced my Jays on a Friday night. They got raped 14-1.

I think these White Soxers are anxious to go clubbing on Friday nights.

teams old and washed up dye,konerkoo,thome and pierszy#%@#woskiski are relyed on to much and their washed up.

The "air' hovering over the South side of Chicago during the early Spring is heavy; the ball is "dead" and the bats are sluggish (especially night games).

They will liven-up when the warm weather arrives.

a Complete game, 4 hit shutout by Harrison. Really sad.

White Sox is the team to fade this year if Ozzie doesn't get fired.

Cliff Lee happened to the Sox offense.

I'm wondering the same thing... when I capped the over in this game, I counted on the White Sox to be able to get a few runs off of Harrison, and then some off the Ranger pen..... unbelievable that they couldn't hit Matt Harrison! He only pitched 98 times as well...

 

[tijuana dirtbag]

Oh yeah I mean Matt Harrison happened to the Whitesox.

Cliff happened to Detroit, but still lost dammit.

Pierzynski's comment after last night's game:

"There's no need to say again," said Pierzynski, who finished 0-for-3 as the White Sox managed just four singles. "The guy pitched good. I'm tired of people blaming the offense, and I'm tired of you guys saying this offense stinks. This offense is pretty darn good. It won the division last year. We have good hitters -- big league hitters. The bottom line is we didn't get any hits tonight."

I have been saying the same thing for years. All the HRs they hit and runs they score because of them gives the illusion that they are a good hitting team. I am not even sure if they had a .300 hitter last year. Also people seem to think that Wrigley Field is a HR park while actually it is US Cellular park thet has ranked in the top 5 HR parks the last 5 years.

Per my FunFact thread posted this morning:

Texas Rangers pitching over their past 20 games is only allowing 4.3 rpg, which is a pace equal to the #8 team pitching in MLB

They've allowed more than five runs just one time in the past 21 games after today's 7-1 win in Chicago.

It's reasonable to state that if Rangers can maintain a pitching equal to Top10 level along with their explosive bats, they are a very solid playoff contender.
