Circling the Drain


The White Sox couldn’t be bothered to score more than one run yesterday, so Chris Sale lost 2-1, despite striking out 12 in 6-2/3 innings and giving up but three hits to Tampa.  On Saturday, the White Sox couldn’t be bothered to protect a one-run lead in the bottom of the eighth as Alexi shortstop Ramirez started throwing the ball every which way but for an out.  On Friday the White Sox couldn’t be bothered because John Danks was pitching, and Danks turns everyone into Joe DiMaggio.

Manager Robin Ventura couldn’t be bothered to show up for the weekend series because he had a graduation in the family.  The general manager can’t be bothered to hold staff and roster accountable because he’s too busy drafting the owner’s grandson.  And free-agent acquisition Adam LaRoche can’t be bothered to hit, what with his ZZ Top beard to go with his boatload of strikeouts (and creepy stares back to the catcher after he’s punched out).

The entire team can’t be bothered to notice their season is circling the drain.  Maybe next year.
