Sox In The Basement

What Gets You To A White Sox Game?

The next few weeks have a lot of different offerrings for the fanbase at the ballpark. So, what gets you out to a White Sox game? We're also asking if this team has a late-season burst of wins in it, if anyone wants Luis Robert Jr for the second half and what Jerry Reinsdorf's lair looks like in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

White Sox Shuffle The Deck A Little

The White Sox have made a great deal of moves over the past week as the team has gone into a pre-trade dealine mode. Propsects and possible trade pieces look to dominate playing time and the roster. We talk about the neames to watch, why the Andrew Vaughn trade is amazing, and a young pitcher in the bullpen to watch closely. Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Who and What Matters on the White Sox

ANDREW VAUGHN IS GONE!! That matters!  Aaron Civale arrives.  That matters!  Grant Taylor matters!  We know that Chase Meidroth, Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero matter.  James Fox of Future Sox joins in the discussion to talk about the other players that matter and who might matter real soon, including what type of return in the next big trade might matter the most.  And of course no one matters more than our listeners...who will also get some catcher nuggets from the Sox Nerd and get to find out about Wil Venable's...binkie? Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Load This White Sox Lineup Up With Catchers

The White Sox have some real ballplayers and the youth movement is suddenly on after this past weekend. We have a perplexing question about Joshua Palacios, though. It goes something like "why is Joshua Palacios stealing at bats from Edgar Quero?" Another question has to do with next season. Are the White Sox closer to getting out of the basement in the AL Central than previously thought? Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

The White Sox And The Good Place

Jerry Reinsdorf is selling his team. It could happen between 4 and 9 years from now. So are White Sox fans in The Good Place or The Bad Place? We break down the real reason for the deal and if there is any good to find in it for the fanbase. Meanwhile Kyle Teal makes his debut and the Sox Nerd joins us as well in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

White Sox Lose To A Soccer Team

Jerry Reinsdorf had another bad day this week as the Chicago Fire swooped in with a privately owned stadium for The 78. Turns out threats to move your baseball team and demands for public funding are so 1980's. Meanwhile Luis Robert Jr looks cooked and the only question remaining is what kind of team would give anything up for him. We tackle these topics and more in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

What the White Sox are Chasing

The Miguel Vargas turnaround continues to astound, but is he the prototype for the ideal White Sox hitter? The return for the Matt Thaiss trade matches other acquisitions, and the internal hitters that are performing have some traits that are starting to define the Sox offensive type.  But this new White Sox way may have a flaw.  The Sox Nerd talks catchers, homers and the Pope while Chris trolls Twins fans and sets his expectations for the rest of this season in 30 minutes of White Sox.

A Few Sparks On This White Sox Roster

Andrew Vaughn heads to the minors. (Tim Elko too.) Matt Thaiss is traded to break up a catching logjam as Korey Lee returns. Now Will Venable gets to set a lineup that looks a lot like what we were suggesting months ago. We look at the positives and the players starting to show they may be part of the team's future plans as some of these guys look like actual ballplayers for the White Sox.

White Sox Prospects Need Support

There is a reason the White Sox had to sign a 5th starter rather than promote from within. The arms down on the farm aren't quite ready. Some of the bats are, though, but supporting teammates for the next wave of talent is needed sooner rather than later.
