Are the White Sox dead?

While perusing various White Sox message boards today, I read many comments about the White Sox being a bad team. I even found one thread about trading Konerko. The problem with this, is that this team is not dead. This team has played .600 baseball since May 7, which is the third best winning percentage in baseball since that dated. In doing so, they have climbed to within 3.5 games of the division lead, and they they have several players who are historically better second half than first half players, such as Juan Pierre, Gordon Beckham, and Adam Dunn. Things should get even better from hear on out.
