The club served as a get-right for Baltimore's pitching staff. Then it's Monday, so it's a minor league report going over how Noah Schultz has bounced back from some struggles. Braden Montgomery might also need some help with his swing.

White Sox demolish Mets' elite pitching | Is this the start of something BIG for Chicago's lineup? May 29, 2025

Show notes

Can the Chicago White Sox's recent victory over the New York Mets signal a turning point for their lineup? With standout performances from Andrew Benintendi, Mike Tauchman, Miguel Vargas, and Chase Meidroth, the potential for a potent offensive surge is on the horizon.

Rookie pitcher Shane Smith had his first rough outing of the season. Could this be a sign of him running out of his gas as he has not logged a lot of innings before this season?

Finally, Los Angeles Angels designated Tim Anderson for assignment. Instead of focusing on his downfall, host Todd Welter discusses how sometimes us Sox fans need to stop rehashing all these former players every time they are in the news.

Mets' success under Steve Cohen exposes White Sox's fatal flaw of Jerry Reinsdorf owning the team May 27, 2025

Show notes

Steve Cohen is not perfect, but the New York Mets have won way more games than the Chicago White Sox. Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf tried to block him from owning a team and he is blocking another billionaire from owning the White Sox.

Host Todd Welter goes over how Reinsdorf's refusal to give up control to Justin Ishbia is denying the franchise having a Cohen-like impact.

Then Todd goes over how it was more on the offense for yesterday's loss to the Mets than it was on the bullpen. Although he does make the case for the Sox to call up stud bullpen pitching prospects Grant Taylor and Peyton Pallette to fix the pen.

The White Sox's revamped lineup has some success, but must overcome having two major drawbacks May 26, 2025

Show notes

The Chicago White Sox finally demoted Andrew Vaughn. However, they also demoted Tim Elko, and it has left the team without a true first baseman. While the Sox revamped lineup won two games, not having a closer or true 1B, cost them a series sweep of the Texas Rangers. Now the team must navigate the unintended consequence of no true first baseman while also dealing with the recurring problem of not having a closer.

Then host Todd Welter discusses when the team can be declared fun bad and how the Los Angeles Angels have become White Sox West.

The Chicago White Sox bullpen continues to ruin chances to win more games + stop the 2024 comparison May 22, 2025

Show notes

The Chicago White Sox had a chance to complete a comeback victory over the Seattle Mariners and win another series. Instead, the bullpen blew a lead like it usually does. Even if winning and losing does not matter, it gets frustrating watching the pen ruin some more chances to win ballgames. Then, it is time to stop comparing this year's team to last year's historic losing squad.

Host Todd Welter also goes over the upcoming roster shakeup with Andrew Benintendi set to return from the injured list and how Joshua Palacios might not be the player who gets DFA'd.
