Sox In The Basement

REACTION: White Sox Baseball Is Back!

Baseball is back just in time with 162 beautiful games. Now the White Sox can focus on a World Series run. James Fox of FutureSox breaks down the final days of negotiations and what we will see next from Rick Hahn now that the Hot Stove is lit again. Adam Kaplan of Sox On 35th expresses his joy and why he thinks the Sox will focus on right field more than anything else. We even air a few minutes of audio with Jordan Lazowski of Sox on 35th being named the manager of a very unique travel team. His reign ended a mere two hours later when baseball returned! Oh, what could have been!

White Sox Fans Look For Alternatives

Has the current state of Major League Baseball and the 2022 White Sox Season pushed you to look for other interests? Baseball is still set to start on time in the nearest non-affiliated independent professional baseball league. We chat with Dana Schmitt, President of the USPBL, about the beauty of being independent and the surprising effect a lack of MLB action will have on her league. Ed also has alternative podcast programming ideas that are either genius or pure madness.

Sox Prospect Development And Cage Matches

White Sox Player Development Hitting Coach Devin DeYoung joins the show before he heads down to Arizona to work with the young prospects in the system. Learn about their offseason homework, what some of the recent high-end draft picks are doing and which young player he listened to hit recently over the phone. We're also placing MLB's Rob Manfred and MLBPA Tony Clark into alternative conflicts to see who would come out on top. If we can't have baseball, we can at least make fun of those who took it away.

Baseball Strikes Out

Major League Baseball's State Run Media duped fans into thinking Opening Day could be saved, but they couldn't force a new CBA into existence. We take to task the lying and greed that has ripped away a glorious spring of baseball, and insulted intelligent fans everywhere. A White Sox season with World Series aspirations is now on indefinite hold, and you have the right to be angry.

Sox Fans Reaching The Breaking Point

Stress makes you do dumb things. (Like accidentally posting an episode of South Side Pod - another show on our network - on the Sox In The Basement feed. Those who listened early on Friday got a very different show. Oops.)
Anywho...The stress has gotten to one of the guys and his advice is to start drinking heavily.  We hold a "Bad Take Tournament" to find the worst White Sox takes of the offseason. The lack of baseball has produced some awful opinions, so we'll add ours into the mix in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Is Dallas Keuchel Cooked Or Cooking?

Is Dallas Keuchel cooked? That's a question with two different answers in this episode as the guys debate what they expect to see from the White Sox pitcher in 2022. Meanwhile the latest in the CBA negotiations has us believing we are in the home stretch. That's good news because everyone has pretty much covered everything across the White Sox landscape at this point, and we need baseball back.

White Sox Postseasons Could Get Interesting

What if the postseason expanded to a "reported" 14 teams with franchises picking their first round opponents like they're playing fantasy sports? We take a look at the implications for the White Sox and baseball as a whole. We also talk about the forgotten group impacted the most by the MLB Lockout. Jordan Lazowski from Sox on 35th caused trouble with PECOTA projections this week. We have him explain the system and how it really views your favorite Sox players.

White Sox Drunk Dials & CBA Nonsense

The White Sox have told their minor leaguers to take their booster shot or else. The owners and players have inched closer during negotiations, with a sneaky proposal just tossed out this weekend by MLB. But does any of that matter when we have White Sox fans drunk dialing the podcast? Hey, some of the points made in this episode may have some merit...some of them.

White Sox Thoughts In The Shower

We call MLB on their absurd position this far into CBA negotiations. Justin Salgado breaks down the best White Sox futures bets to jump on right now. And if the universal DH is a real thing starting in 2022, it seems like Rick Hahn has more ammunition for pre-season trades.

Playing A Little White Sox ”Would You Rather”

We could talk about the latest kerfuffle around the CBA negotiations, but instead let's play our version of White Sox "Would You Rather". It leads to some interesting discussions, and some absurd takes on possible additions to your baseball viewing experience. Sure we would rather talk about a new free agent signing or big trade just before Spring Training, but sometimes the conversation is out of your control.
