Choke-ago? Sox Spiraling, Crochet's Cannon & Robert's Struggles

Losing five of your last six games in the thick of postseason seeding while your division's crown is on the line is a bold move, Cotton. But that's exactly what the Chicago White Sox are doing. Jon and James attempt to diagnose Choke-ago's woes as well as share their thoughts on Sox players' reactions to this pressure-packed, near-climax to the season (1:00). What can we take away from Abreu's comments (12:00)? J&J chat about updated postseason matchups and where the Sox fall come October (14:30). Garret Crochet is one of very, very few positives buoying the collective White Sox fandom's sanity (20:15). Was Gio Gonzales the right call to pitch at the end of game two in Believeland (23:00)? Robert's rugged stretch continues (24:45).
