By the time the next Farm Fortnight is published on July 21, the White Sox farm system could have a considerably different feel to it, what with the Sox selecting No. 1 overall , and first in the other 19 rounds as well over the course of Saturday and Sunday. You probably won't see those draft picks appearing on the boards below for a few weeks, because it takes a little bit of time for them to sign, then a little more time to report, but there should be a greater sense of depth, maybe even on...
Fresh off a sweep of the Los Angeles Angels (of Anaheim) the Boston Red Sox head to Chicago to take on a rejuvenated White Sox team. Possibly outsmarted by (checks notes) Chris Getz, Craig Breslow’s team has been taking a step back while the other Sox skipped the “improve’ step of the rebuilding process and […]
The Chicago White Sox have spent the past two seasons searching for real signs of progress. Winning 10 straight home series is the clearest indication yet that something has changed. Rate Field has turned into one of the toughest places to play in baseball this season. Even after dropping the finale against Kansas City, the […]

In baseball, if you take your eye off the ball for just a split second, you risk swinging right past a pitch down the middle. When spectating, it is just as easy to miss a series or two and have no idea what caused your team to remain atop the division after playing the last […]
Being transactional was a thing that JJ Picollo said this organization wanted to be when he took over the operations side as POBO/GM. We now have almost four years of trades to see if at least that part of transacting is going well as we near the 2026 trade deadline. I am not going to […]

1931 In a 12-inning game in St. Louis won by the White Sox over the Browns, 10-8, neither team struck out. It remains the longest game ever played in the majors without a K. Tommy Thomas pitched a sloppy start but left in line for the win, leading 8-7 going into the ninth inning. But […]

It's always ideal for the team selecting first overall in any draft for one player to be so dominant they rise above the rest as the clear-cut No. 1 selection.
There were multiple issues that got Colson Montgomery sent to Camelback Ranch last April. But one of them, by his own admission , was a mindset that found him chasing the results that would get him promoted to the majors.
By most indications, that's not how Montgomery really thinks any more.

1933 The first-ever All-Star Game was played at Comiskey Park.

Major League Baseball recently revealed the All-Star game rosters for both the NL and AL.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- In order to start making a name for himself, Boston Smith first considered the name for himself.
His actual first name is Noah, but as he explored playing baseball beyond high school, the White Sox catching prospect chose to go by his middle name, which is also his mother's maiden name, figuring it might help him make an impression.

With the season past its halfway point, we’re starting to see each team’s true identity. There have been plenty of surprises thus far: the Chicago White Sox leading the AL Central, the Miami Marlins rattling off 20 wins in June, and the Tampa Bay Rays finding a way to lead the AL East. But with […]

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — If you cut your walk rate in half while increasing your strikeout rate more than 50 percent, you’re probably going to make progress.

The Sox needed length from Erick Fedde today, and he delivered. The Sox needed a lot of big outs from their bullpen, and it delivered. The Sox needed their defense to buckle up and make plays when it counted, and they did. If it felt like they rather deserved to lose last Thursday and Friday’s […]
The White Sox had one job at Progressive Field this holiday weekend: Split the series and return from Cleveland with a one-game lead intact. And they did.
Now, you might have qualms with how they did it, getting walked off in the first two games, then ending up on the right side of a one-run game only after weathering two awful defensive innings and the failure to capitalize on a pair of bases-loaded opportunities late in the game. But a win is a win, especially when it restores sole possess...
Memphis Redbirds 2, Charlotte Knights 1Mason Adams was the bright spot and kept things on lockdown for five, scattering two hits, no walks, and a couple of punchouts. Then Wikelman González took the wheel and promptly got dinged for a run on two singles, a wild pitch, a sac fly, and Memphis was on the […]
