It certainly is a dunk on Cubs fans that the team that was supposed to contend for a World Series may be better than a team that was picked for last.

This post will always be hilarious as an unforced error.

The Cubs are currently 2 games out of last place. The White Sox are 14.5 games out of last place.

Ask Caller Bob. He is the poster most dialed on all things White Sox.

Playoffs start Oct 3rd, and somehow they'll be under .500 and still win the whole thing.

Looks like Dolphin will be proven right tra la, tra la.

Will today be the day?

Seems unlikely with Lynn pitching in Game 1.

I think a fat guy like Lynn would have the advantage in a poor air quality game.

Sure, a better record is great but we really need to bring home the BP Cup

Sox passed the Cubs Tuesday night and are currently ahead of them.

Apparently Dolphin wasn't ambitious enough in defining the objective for this thread.

The challenge for this discussion now involves picking the date(s) when the White Sox ascend to first place in their division and the Cubs sink to the bottom of theirs. Tra la, tra la.

Sox are closer to first place than the Orioles, Astros, Yankees, Blue Jays, and Angels.

This may be the saddest thread of any Chicago sports commentary on the site. The argument pits a failed rebuild against a minor league team that print cash for a guy who won’t spend it.
