Seby Zavala and Lucas Giolito powered the Chicago White Sox past the New York Yankees, 3-2 Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

Seby Zavala and Lucas Giolito powered the Chicago White Sox past the New York Yankees, 3-2. Lucas Giolito went six innings and did not give up a hit. He left the game after 100 pitches. It was the second time this year that Giolito went six innings without issuing a hit, which is a White Sox record. Seby Zavala hit two home runs and accounted for all three White Sox RBI. Joe Kelly and Kendall Graveman set things up for Liam Hendriks in the ninth inning. It was Liam's first save opportunity of 2023. Hendriks gave up a Josh Donaldson home run but got three groundouts to nail down the victory. The White Sox have not lost in June and are now four and a half games back in the AL Central. Lance Lynn goes for the Sox on Wednesday in New York.

With the Chicago White Sox having an off-day, it was time to check on what might be headed our way from Charlotte Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

With the Chicago White Sox having an off-day, it was time to check on what might be headed our way from Charlotte. Jeff Cohen covers all things Triple A (Charlotte Knights) for Future Sox and joined the episode to provide some perspective on depth or lack thereof. What happened to Oscar Colas and what does his path look like to get back to the big leagues? Should Lenyn Sosa still be viewed as the future White Sox second baseman? Cohen provides an insight into what players might be next man up in the outfield and on the mound. Is Jesse Scholtens the only option or can Sean Burke be available? Why has development of a catcher been such an unsuccessful endeavor? Should Carlos Perez get a shot over Seby Zavala. Also, Cohen gives us his report from watching 2022 first round pick, Noah Schultz, pitch recently. White Sox start a three game series against the New York Yankees on Tuesday with Lucas Giolito on the mound.

The Chicago White Sox swept the Detroit Tigers thanks to a walk off grand slam by Jake Burger Jun 05, 2023

Show notes

The Chicago White Sox swept the Detroit Tigers thanks to a walk off grand slam by Jake Burger. The White Sox (26-35) are five and a half games back in the AL Central after a winning weekend but several challenges loom. For now, the Sox will enjoy their three game winning streak and a sweep of a division rival. Jake Burger's walk-off grand slam was essentially all of the offense for the Sox in the series. On Saturday, they scored two runs on wild pitches and on Friday, they scraped three runs together and survived thanks to stellar starting pitching and bullpen help. Speaking of pitching: Mike Clevinger, Dylan Cease and Michael Kopech all had solid outings and the bullpen gave up very little. Before Friday's game, the Sox designated Hanser Alberto for assignment and brought back Elvis Andrus. It seems like there will be a battle for second base between Andrus and Romy Gonzalez. Sox have an off day on Monday, then start a three game series against the New York Yankees in New York.

Mailbag Friday: Who could be dealt at the deadline, who stays and do you trust the people in charge? Jun 02, 2023

Show notes

Mailbag Friday: Who could be dealt at the deadline, who stays and do you trust the people in charge? The Chicago White Sox had an off-day on Thursday. They are a disappointing (23-35) and host the Detroit Tigers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. There are no shortage of available articles on what the White Sox might do at the trade deadline. What players are untouchable? Is Luis Robert Jr. a player that, if dealt, can help rebuild the farm system? Is it inevitable that Lucas Giolito is gone? Should the Sox at least hold onto their prospects? Maybe the Sox actually stay competitive in terms of the AL Central and stay still at the deadline. No matter what, the consensus amongst fans is that Rick Hahn should have nothing to do with the impending decisions.

Lance Lynn was lit up by Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani and the White Sox were crushed by the Angels, 12-5 Jun 01, 2023

Show notes

Lance Lynn was lit up by Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani and the White Sox were crushed by the Angels, 12-5. Lynn went four innings and gave up eight earned runs. He had a miserable outing. Both Trout and Ohtani took Lynn's non-competitive offerings very deep into the seats. White Sox bullpen was not immune to the carnage, they issued home runs as well. White Sox offense was sluggish for most of the game. Romy Gonzalez, the recent Sox hero, was 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. Sox finished the month of May with a (15-14) but there should be no celebrating. They are a disappointing (23-35) on the year and have an off day on Thursday to lick their wounds before the Detroit Tigers come to town for a three game series.

Romy Gonzalez continues to hit home runs and the Chicago White Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels, 7-3 May 31, 2023

Show notes

Romy Gonzalez continues to hit home runs and the Chicago White Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels, 7-3. It was not a very memorable start for Lucas Giolito. He gave up a first inning home run, then a couple more runs during his five inning outing. The Sox bullpen was impressive, especially Reynaldo Lopez. He had four strikeouts in his two innings of work. Sox offense came alive on Tuesday. Seven runs and 11 hits. White Sox had six extra base hits. Luis Robert Jr. and Andrew Vaughn each had a pair of doubles. Romy Gonzalez continued his tear. He had a double and home run. It was his third home run in as many games. White Sox go for the series win on Wednesday afternoon with Lance Lynn on the mound.

Liam Hendriks made his return to the mound but the Chicago White Sox lost to the LA Angels, 6-4 May 30, 2023

Show notes

Liam Hendriks made his return to the mound but the Chicago White Sox lost to the LA Angels, 6-4. White Sox starter, Michael Kopech, was not able to capture the magic from his two previous starts. He let the Angels have a big first inning, giving up four runs. Kopech settled down after the first but his pitch count got to him. He only last four innings plus but had ten strikeouts. Liam Hendriks made his unbelievable return in the 8th inning. He gave up a couple runs and was not as sharp as he would have liked to be but he was back in a White Sox uniform, pitching at 35th and Shields. Sox offense provided three home runs: Romy Gonzalez, Andrew Vaughn and Eloy Jimenez all went deep but could not overcome the early deficit. Sox try to even the series on Tuesday with Lucas Giolito on the mound.

Lucas Giolito did not get out of the 4th inning and Sox pitching issued 11 walks while the offense had four hits May 26, 2023

Show notes

Lucas Giolito did not get out of the 4th inning and Sox pitching issued 11 walks while the offense had four hits. The dominance of the starting staff of the Chicago White Sox and accompanying bullpen were put on pause on Thursday against the Detroit Tigers. Sox lost to the Tigers by a score of, 7-2. Giolito issued four earned runs and seven walks in 3+ innings of work. The bullpen issued another 3 earned runs and four walks. It was a bad day for Sox pitching. Aside from a Gavin Sheets homerun and a manufactured run thanks to a Jake Burger stolen base coupled with a Tim Anderson single, there was not much happening offensively. Sox struck out 13 times and did not walk once. The Sox (21-31) have three more in Detroit and will try again on Friday with Lance Lynn on the hill.
