Good morning!
There's been a fair bit of Miguel Vargas-themed trivia content over here at Sox Machine Sporcle Saturday, and for good reason: he's posting numbers as a third baseman this franchise hasn't seen in some time . Getting a mainstay at the hot corner would be most welcome! Thus, this week's quiz will also connect to Miguel Vargas in some way: namely, who has appeared in at least one game at third base for the White Sox since 1990? This theme comes courtesy of Sporcle regular roke196...
We already had the 2027 regular season schedule announced in July, and on Friday the White Sox released the games that will lead into the regular season. There aren’t many surprises, given the same 14 opponents. And we’ve got no game times or broadcast information yet. But nonetheless, here it is: Everything starts earlier in […]
For the first time since 2002, the A’s hit four home runs in one inning (h/t Martin Gallegos of MLB.com). Max Muncy, Alika Williams, Jeff McNeil, and Zack Gelof all went deep in the third inning on Friday. It wasn’t a Sacramento situation, either. The game was in Seattle, against ace Logan Gilbert, no less. […]
Kyle Teel is back with the Chicago White Sox once again. The 24-year-old has endured a difficult stretch of injuries this season, beginning with a hamstring injury during the World Baseball Classic, followed by a knee injury while on a rehab assignment and, most recently, an ankle sprain at the end of July. Now, as [...]

For the first time since 2018, the Winston-Salem Dash are heading to the postseason. And for the first time ever, they’ll be participants in the South Atlantic League playoffs.

It’s been a rare occurrence, a White Sox affiliate making the playoffs this decade. And outside of the back-to-back Southern League titles by the Birmingham Barons in 2024-25, there has been scant success in those rare postseasons. Coming off a 56-74 record last year and with only Single-A and ACL talent to pull from, it […]
Charlotte Knights 9, Gwinnett Stripers 3The Knights inched closer to the playoffs with a strong win over the Stripers. Home runs fueled a team hungry to prove that having a bunch of 4A guys on the squad won’t go to waste. Caden Connor’s three-run blast in the fifth made a statement, and essentially put the […]
Colson Montgomery got to enjoy pulling off career milestones with Miguel Vargas during the Chicago White Sox’s series opener against the Minnesota Twins on Friday night. Montgomery is going through the second season of his career in the majors. He has shined as one of the top rising stars in the league, helping Chicago be […]

There are a lot of games left to be played. There is no doubt that one win at this point of the season won’t decide anything. With that being said, Friday night went a long way for a Chicago White Sox team that has been floundering in the deep end for a few weeks now. […]
Perhaps there won't be such a thing as an easy White Sox victory the rest of the season, but they came awfully close tonight.
Miguel Vargas hit his 30th homer of the season in the first inning, Colson Montgomery joined him in the 30-homer club with a two-run shot in the fourth inning, and Braden Montgomery added a solo shot in between to give the White Sox a 4-0 lead that nearly lasted the entire game.

Zebby Matthews hadn’t given up any long balls in his last two starts, so he made up for it with three here. Still, not exactly a TERRIBLE outing for him… but it kinda was for the offense. Inning-by-inning notes: 1: Kody Clemens gets a hit / nothing special comes of it Miguel Vargas slugs a […]
Ranger Suarez was everything this team needed on Friday night. Seven innings. Zero runs. Ten ground ball outs. No serious threats from a Baltimore lineup that came in buzzing after Thursday’s seven-homer drama. Suarez just went out there and made them pound the ball into the ground, inning after inning after inning. It was the […]
The Chicago White Sox have made several maneuvers to accelerate their rebuild and contend for a divisional title this season. They have collectively exceeded expectations, but the Miguel Vargas acquisition probably does not get enough attention. The former Los Angeles Dodgers prospect currently leads the ballclub in OPS, and in Friday night’s game versus the […]

The first time Kyle Teel tried to return from injury, he tweaked his knee during a rehab stint for a hamstring strain. The second time Kyle Teel tried to return from injury, he hit .190/271/.317 over 19 games before suffering a high ankle sprain attempting to pivot and apply a tag at home plate. So…

Well, the AL Central race has not exactly been much of a race, and this past week it’s looked like two hurt tortoises limping towards the finish line. For as poor as the Chicago White Sox have been lately, the Cleveland Guardians have been just as bad, and honestly, that’s been good enough. No, you […]

Fall is here, the White Sox sit atop the AL Central, and the scent of a postseason run — albeit likely a very short one — is wafting through the air. Although Chicago fans have been looking forward to a competent team since before Pope Leo was inaugurated, one of the Sox’s latest roster moves […]
It's never a good sign for a trade deadline haul when a team might've been better off making zero trades than the four that went through. Or that the most productive player of those four was hurt in his third game, and might not be available the rest of the season.
As James wrote in the wake of the trade deadline, Chris Getz tried to balance immediate and longer-term interests by acquiring players -- Luis Castillo for the rotation, Huascar Brazobán for the bullpen, Joey Bart for catching, Br...
The White Sox have shut down left-hander Ky Bush due to a lat strain, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. He won’t return this season. He is already on the 60-day injured list and will stay there through the end of the campaign. That will make it two completely lost seasons for Bush, who underwent Tommy […]

The Cleveland Guardians are right where they need to be to make a run at the Chicago White Sox and win the American League Central title. They are 70-70 with 22 games remaining, and just 3.0 games behind Chicago’s South Side team. That is more than enough time to make up the difference between the […]

The Baltimore Orioles, in need of a right-handed-hitting outfielder who can play center field, claimed Luis Robert Jr. off waivers from the New York Mets on Monday. Robert, 29, spent the first six seasons of his career with the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox gave him a six-year, $50 million pre-arbitration extension in 2020, […]
