The White Sox appear to have turned a corner. After starting the season with a 7-23 record, they have been playing substantially better baseball of late. On the last homestand, they split a four-game series with the Detroit Tigers and took two of three from the Kansas City Royals. It isn’t a...
The White Sox have one of MLB's best farm systems, headlined by top 100 prospects Noah Schultz, Hagen Smith, and Braden Montgomery. Kyle Teel and Grant Taylor, two of the other top prospects in the organization, have recently been called up to the big leagues. The franchise has an influx of young...
The White Sox are going full steam ahead with their youth movement. Just days after calling up top-catching prospect Kyle Teel, the organization has made another aggressive promotion. Right-handed pitcher Grant Taylor is coming to the big leagues, per James Fox of FutureSox. According to Fox's...
With the team playing better ball recently, the White Sox are leaving no stone unturned to improve the roster. Left-handed pitcher Tyler Alexander has signed a one-year, $760,000 contract, per a team announcement. Left-hander Jared Shuster has been placed on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to...
Good days have been hard to come by for the White Sox over the last few years. After two straight 100+ loss seasons, including a record 121 losses last season, it felt like dark times would continue on the South Side for the foreseeable future. However, much better days now appear to be on the...
Following an onslaught of Tommy John surgeries during the spring, more bad injury news has hit the White Sox pitching staff. Right-handed pitcher Jonathan Cannon was placed on the 15-day injured list with a lower back strain this afternoon. Right-hander Caleb Freeman was recalled from Class AAA...
Kyle Teel’s blazing-hot performance in Triple-A has created an interesting dilemma for the White Sox regarding his positional home moving forward. It appears we now have some insight into the team’s plans. Teel told White Sox beat writer Scott Merkin of MLB.com that he has been taking ground balls...
When the Cubs decided to part ways with Mike Tauchman last November, the White Sox scooped him up just a few weeks later. It made sense for both sides. The team desperately needed a veteran presence capable of playing outfield, and staying in Chicago aligned with Tauchman's desires to remain close...
The Los Angeles Angels have designated Tim Anderson for assignment, per the team’s communication department. The parting of ways represents the latest chapter in his drastic decline. Anderson, 31, signed with the Angels on a minor league contract in January and showed enough in spring training to...
The trade deadline isn't for a few more months, but the White Sox are starting the action early this year. Matt Thaiss has been traded to the Tampa Bay Rays for outfield prospect Dru Baker, per a team announcement. Thaiss' White Sox Stint Thaiss, 30, performed as advertised for the White Sox in...
When the White Sox traded Dylan Cease to the San Diego Padres for a four-player package in March of last year, the hope was that those players would help lead a new era of baseball on the South Side. As of now, injuries and underperformance have prevented that from happening. While each player in...
The White Sox bullpen reared its ugly head yet again yesterday afternoon. Staked to a 3-2 lead in the top of the 9th, Jordan Leasure was called on to get the save. Unfortunately, it went south quickly. Thanks to poor execution and defensive miscues, he allowed three runs, blowing the save and...
