But our pitching is pretty good. That's a plus. |

Winning a single game is not reason to forget what's wrong about the organization. Nor is it time to forget the reason the team is expected to have a down year is because of lack of offense, which was on display today. Sale can't pitch shutouts everyday of the season. We can celebrate, but it doesn't mean we're not cognizant of reality. |

I also add in the bullpen is as deep and experienced as we've had in a long time. This staff can be as good as the 2005 squad, IMO.

Perhaps...the big questions are Addison and Flowers. They produce I will be feeling quite comfy about our chances.

I fear we are going to be involved in way too many of these 1-0, 2-1, 3-2 type of games.
Great to see Flowers be the one to win it. Somebody in that 6-9 group needs to produce. |

There is no reason to complain about a lack of offense when your team wins a 1-0 opening game any more than there was no reason to assume the White Sox would crush every team offensively after they scored 15 runs in the opener in Cleveland a couple of years ago. If you look back at the 2011 season, the most runs the White Sox scored in any game was the 15 they scored on opening day. If you look back at the the 2005 season, the pitiful offense on display in the 1-0 opening-day win really wasn't all that bad. At least it was good enough. Today the Sox scored only one run, but they won, and deservedly so. The reality is that the White Sox played a great game against a team that has played them tough in recent years, a team that hit very well in spring exhibition games with players have hit Sale well in the past. Your reality at this point is more opinion and expectation than reality. |

I am curious why Gillaspie was brought in as a defense replacement for Paul in the 9th. How much has the guy played 1st? Is Paul hurt?

With the temp in the high 30s did anyone expect some kind of slugfest?
89 more 1-0 wins would be fine with me.

Great game. School gets out at 2:50, and we can leave at 3:20, so I was able to listen to the game on MLB and on my drive home. Got home at around the end of the third. Chris. Sale. |

I'll grant you that he doesn't have much range, but I can't remember anything else that he's done at 1B to make him a bad defender. Not everyone can be Texeira. Or however he spells his name.

He makes some good plays, and is a little better than you might think considering his range...but range is really important. Most defensive metrics aren't too kind to him.

Despite the cold, I had more fun at this opener than any other I have attended. The team played well. However, and I know this is only one game, but Adam Dunn looked clueless up there. Looked more like 2011 than 2012.
