The White Sox are off to their worst start in the franchise's 120+ year history. Not only are they 8-28 and have the worst record in baseball, but they rank dead last in MLB in virtually every meaningful stat. Chris Getz said this past offseason that he "didn't like our team," yet somehow managed...
The White Sox made the polarizing decision to let long-time shortstop and face of the franchise Tim Anderson walk out the door this past offseason when they declined his $14 million team option for 2024 in favor of a $1 million buyout. He ended up signing with the Marlins on a one-year, $5 million...
It is only early May, yet the trades have already begun. The Marlins shocked the baseball world by trading Luis Arráez to the Padres earlier in the week and will likely stay open for business regarding the other trade assets on their roster. Miami's "waiving the white flag" could open the door for...
One of the White Sox's top prospects is heading to the big leagues for the first time, according to James Fox of FutureSox. Bryan Ramos was unexpectedly pulled in the middle of his AA game last night, and now we know why. According to MLB.com, Ramos is the #4 prospect in the White Sox organization...
Luis Robert Jr. could return from his hip flexor injury sooner than expected. In a new development, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Robert Jr. is "at 80% running in comeback from hip flexor strain and is taking batting practice." He is on the right path in his recovery...
The White Sox made headlines by being one of the biggest sellers at last year's trade deadline. One of the most significant trades they made was on July 26th, when they traded long-time pitching staff stalwarts Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo López to the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for catching...
The White Sox are 3-0 since Tommy Pham's arrival. They have started firing on all cylinders with him in the lineup. While a three-game winning streak is insignificant for most teams, it is far from that for a White Sox squad that started the season 3-22. The timing may be purely coincidental, but...
In a surprising move, the White Sox have optioned outfielder Dominic Fletcher to AAA, per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times. Veteran outfielder Rafael Ortega is coming up in Fletcher’s place. Veteran outfielder Tommy Pham is also coming up, while outfielder Kevin Pillar is departing...
Terry Francona is interested in managing again, according to ESPN's Tim Kurkjian. The 65-year-old Francona has dealt with health issues in recent years and is not currently managing, but Kurkjian reported yesterday that Francona "is going to get healthy and then he'll be back [managing] in a year...
The 2024 MLB Draft is not until the middle of July, but the top of the draft class is already starting to take shape. Monitoring the elite prospects of this class is especially pertinent to the White Sox, who have the fifth overall selection and desperately need to infuse more young talent into the...
The White Sox announced several roster moves this afternoon ahead of tonight's game against the Twins. These moves include two call-ups, a pair of demotions, and a DFA. Additions Danny Mendick is back in the fold. A familiar face for Sox fans, the 30-year-old Mendick had been crushing the ball in...
Martín Maldonado started at catcher yet again for the White Sox yesterday afternoon, turning in another typical Martín Maldonado performance. He went 0-3 at the plate with a strikeout and caught a game in which the White Sox pitching staff gave up six walks, eight runs, and four stolen bases. It...
