    Seriously, the White Sox scare me sometimes.. on paper and when on fire nobody can beat them.. they go into these slumps though that make no sense, and only Ozzie tirades pull them out.. I think they have amazing talent, but lack ambition sometimes.

    I can see them either sweeping their way into the playoffs again, or being swept out of September. Your guess is as good as mine.

    great team. but these next 2 months is where their colors will show. the twins are doing great and the tigers will make a run. the wild card is coming out of the east or central. gonna be a crazy finish

    Minnesota is scary right now,.. hopefully its a fluke.. and hopefully the Tigers dug their hole deep enough at the beginning of the season to catch up..

    It sucks the Sox only got two players into the all-star game and the Cubs eight. There should be a team cap.

    The White Sox should be top 5, but def. not #1.

    i agree here. ESPN sucks though. coming from a Red Sox fan here, i agree they kiss their ass way too much. but right now i think the mets should be 1 and the sox, 2. the white sox, 3.

    Cubs, White Sox, Red Sox, Tampa Bay, Angels,.. all top 5 teams in any given order..

    The way the MLB has been working, some last place team at the break will probably make the World Series..

    Go PALE HOSE (aka the real SOX!)

    Can't wait for the Cubs to blow it in October (again!), who knows, maybe even sooner if the world is lucky enough!

    ESPN kisses the good teams asses. whoever is the recent champion...in all sports. its a national network for christ sake. its the same shit they did when the Yankees were the greatest team on earth in the 90's. the red sox are so freaking much better than everyone right now, they get a lot of attention.

    that said, who gives a shit about ESPN's power rankings? they still have tampa at 2? ha ha! thats just insane right there.

    Here are the rankings that matter....

    Flannels CURRENT Power Rankings - Top 5

    Red Sox
    Cubs
    Angels
    Mets
    Yankees
    All that's sacred, comes from youth....dedications, naive and true.

    ESPN's Power Rankings are all about the hot team at the moment, and it's hard to argue against the Sox at the time these rankings came out.
