2-5 vs. Divisional Opponents Kansas City and Minnesota. Buster Olney reporting Ozzie Guillen probably toast. Our delusional White Sox Fanboys can look to last season to see that wonderful job Quade did with the Cubs and Showalter did with the Orioles when they took over and continue their World Series dreams. As far as I'm concerned, the Douche in the M&Ms jacket in the front row can manage this fucking Kenny Williams botched up abortion for the rest of the season. |

Ozzie is a billion times better than Quade. |

They should clean house but wait to replace Williams in the offseason! Replacing Guillen might give the team a quick jolt in the 2nd half. |

The Ranger keeps insisting that this team would have more wins if Rios and Dunn hit at least half of what is expected of them. Shouldn't Kenny be responsible for having a team rely so heavily on two players? Or are they just in the top 5 of most important players of the Sox team that any team would have this much trouble losing 2 of their best players? |

It is obvious that Ozzie wants to play BASEBALL and Crazed Kenny gets him softball players. Year after Year after Year. |

If Ozzie is going to continue to trot Dunn out there every day, for the love of god put him at the bottom of the order. |

While Kenny and Ozzie can take some of the blame, this one is on the players more than anyone else. You've got big money guys playing like the Chicago Cubs. Kenny went "all in" and the players aren't. Kenny put together a pretty good pitching staff. The hitters just don't hit. Dunn was money for 40 homers a season every season. How can you blame management for his play? |

ALL IN my ass! How can any team consider themselves ALL IN if they lose 2 out of 3 to the Royals and 3 out of 4 to a Twins' team that has had more than their fair share of injuries? How can this sorry ass team continue to call themselves ALL IN when they are now 8-16 in the AL Central? It was a marvelous homestand alright...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! After the All-Star Break, it's another 3-city road trip for these underachieving White Sox, starting right out of the chute in Detroit Friday night vs. the Tigers' Justin Verlander, and two of the least reliable starting pitchers on the Sox staff right now, Gavin Floyd & Edwin Jackson, going back to back at Comerica Park. Have fun with that! |

When will someone strap on the balls and accept responsibility for this mess? Kenny? Ozzie? Hitting coach Greg Walker? Bench coach Joey Cora? Pitching coach Don Cooper? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller? |

I thought ex-ESPN analyst Steve Phillips had Ozzie on the hot seat ever since they won it all in 2005... |

BD, the players should be held accountable, but it's usually a coach or manager that usually takes the fall instead. |

Jeez. How the hell is that Walkers fault?? What power does the hitting coach have?? If a hitter doesn't listen to him can he release him? No. Can he send him to the minors? No. Can he bench him? No. Can he even drop him down in the order? FUCKING NO. The hitters are the one's with the bat in their hands and if they have bad approaches that lead to bad at bats it's 100% on them and not on the god damn hitting coach. |

Its not just Walker's fault. He shares some of the blame, as do the players, and as does Ozzie. For the Sox to be this bad for this long after being 'All In', I'm very surprised that nobody has gotten launched yet. |
