The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

but didn’t have any worries about the pitching giving up another run, so it was just a matter of time.

I can see AJ and JD regressing downward a little
Crede and Q staying where they’re at, but assuming Thome, Swish, and PK come back in a big way, our offense will either maintain or mildly exceed its current output.

To check the box score, see the Sox beat the Indians and say “Hell yea I knew we were going to beat those bastards from Ohio.”

They'll need it
The Angels will be throwing some good pitching at them this weekend.
Then again, the Angels will have to contend with the “Q Factor.”
If anyone would like to join me for a cold frosty at the beer stand near Sec. 103 on Sunday (behind the visitor’s bullpen), give me a shout. I’m fairly coherent through the 4th inning or so.

Imagine, This Team Could Be
29-18 with the Opening Day loss and Bobby’s Baltimore blown save in Baltimore with a 2-run lead w/ 2 strikes & in Chicago that later got suspended. To think this team was left for dry on May 6th after an 0-6 roadtrip to drop 2 games under .500. What a great sport America’s Favorite Pastime is.

I tried to get some pictures of Q!, but every picture I tried to get of him there was a strange shining blob around his head. Also I faintly heard trumpets.
