Locked On White Sox - Daily Podcast On The Chicago White Sox

Latest Episodes:

Chicago White Sox pitcher Garrett Crochet might not be an ace after all Apr 25, 2024

Show notes

Crochet started the season with three brilliant starts, but he has not been dominating over his last three starts. It is fair to wonder if those three starts very early in the season were just an aberration? Host Todd Welter then discusses Andrew Benintendi's struggles especially in the field costing the team runs. Is he really engaged after getting a huge free-agent contract last offseason?

Finally, Todd delves into how the Chicago Bears' new stadium plans affect the Sox' hopes for a new ballpark.

Chicago White Sox lost again because of manager Pedro Grifol Apr 24, 2024

Show notes

Grifol decided to give Michael Kopech a chance to get a six-out save. When Kopech gave up two runs in the eighth, he decided to go with setup man Steven Wilson in the ninth. Wilson ended up blowing it in the ninth. First, Pedro did not need to go with Kopech in the eighth as he could have went with Wilson in his normal role. It is just another example of the manager not doing his job well.

Host Todd Welter then discusses starting pitcher Erick Fedde's brilliant day on the mound and why he might be the steal of the offseason. Finally, he pleads with the Sox to stop citing how hard they are working as this team continues to lose.

Chicago White Sox start to the season got worse in Philadelphia Apr 22, 2024

Show notes

The Sox were outscored by the Phillies 24-7 in the series. Two Phillies starters flirted with no-hitters on back-to-back days. Host Todd Welter discusses just how bad this start really is. He then goes over whether we need to be concerned with Garrett Crochet. Finally, Todd wraps up the episode by going over the eventual return of Danny Mendick. It also means we hopefully never have to see Lenyn Sosa again.

The Chicago White Sox are directionless right now Apr 16, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago White Sox have not officially announced their signing of Tommy Pham to a minor-league deal. This season is lost, so it does not make sense to add another veteran player. Todd Welter discusses on today's show why this shows general manager Chris Getz has this team directionless when it comes to the long-term outlook of the White Sox.

Todd then discusses Eloy Jimenez' return from the 10-day IL and why you should be worried he may end up back there someday this season. Then finally, he wraps up by discussing Nick Nastrini's solid MLB debut on the mound for the White Sox.

Chicago White Sox may need to let manager Pedro Grifol go as things get worse Apr 15, 2024

Show notes

The Chicago White Sox were not competitive at all this weekend as they were routed by the Reds in a three-game series sweep. The grumblings for Pedro Grifol to be ousted is continuing to get louder. Host Todd Welter discusses whether the Sox should pull the plug on Grifol or if the team is so bad, would it even make a difference?

Todd then jumps into how owner Jerry Reinsdorf's quest for a new stadium is getting worse as a Chicago Sun-Times recently put out a report on the majority owner of the land the stadium is to be built. It is not a good look for the White Sox. Finally, if Jerry is to get any money for this new stadium, he needs to meet four conditions.
