Sox In The Basement

What We Learned This Month About The White Sox

So many national articles with insight into the inner workings of the White Sox have come out in the final month of the MLB season. White Sox fans learned a lot. That said, the Grady Sox have also revealed a few other things about which players you want to remain on this roster, what attitude resides in the clubhouse and what direction the team could potentially go this offseason.

Reduced Payroll Doesn't Mean White Sox Can't Spend

We just found $50,000,000 for Chris Getz to spend AFTER Jerry Reinsdorf reduces the White Sox to the bottom five in payroll next season. How did we do it? We just followed the blueprint of bottom-feeding MLB franchises and did some simple math. Time for the White Sox GM to prove he can do his job.

Getz Not Helping White Sox Credibility

Chris Getz spoke. He probably shouldn't do that. We ask how one of the dealers could be confused by the cards he was dealt this season. Our suggestion is the next time he speaks, it should be with honesty. As the White Sox march to historic losing records, where is the professional pride?

Let's Talk About The 2025 White Sox

The 2024 White Sox are the worst baseball team you have ever seen. We would rather talk about the 2025 White Sox, who better not be this bad. They don't have to be. It all depends on the front office being smarter this off-season...and ruthless.

Can The White Sox Make History

The White Sox can finish the 2024 MLB season with the worst winning percentage in the modern baseball era. Can this team of ragtag misfits put Jerry Reinsdorf's failure into the history books? We also have fans asking why Yoan Moncada would even join the team in September and if Luis Robert Jr should be playing. Let's tackle some ideas thrown our way, hear from The Sox Nerd, and have a few laughs entering the last month of the season in "30 Minutes of Sox!"
