Chicago White Sox News, Analysis and Interviews. For Fans, By Fans, From Chicago’s South Side.

    The Fool, The Miser & The White Sox

    The Fool, The Miser & The White Sox

    Is Pedro Grifol the worst White Sox manager of your lifetime? He’s checking all the boxes, even when he’s being tossed from a game. Jerry Reinsdorf keeps trying his old tricks, but this time the billionaire doesn’t seem to be crafty enough to even deliver a proper threat. As the White Sox continue to be historically bad, we ask why they also seem intent on not delivering any entertainment value. Join us for ”30 Minutes of Sox!”

    Looking For Hope In The White Sox Rotation

    Looking For Hope In The White Sox Rotation

    If you are looking for something to watch with hope, look no further than the rotation of the Chicago White Sox. Chris Flexen is out and two young pitchers with upside join a legit ace-in-the-making and a solid back-end veteran. Mike Clevinger may push out Mike Soroka soon and Drew Thorpe seems as inevitable as Thanos. Most managers could do something with these arms finally rising to the surface, but is Pedro Grifol the right guy? Recent decisions have us showing the White Sox skipper the door.

    The White Sox Are Weird

    The White Sox Are Weird

    Former World Series champion A.J. Pierzynski is taking shots at the organization. Pedro Grifol is trying to put Gavin Sheets in the OF while his GM is signing Tommy Pham. Chris Getz is seemingly selling players for cash to gather cash for free agent purchases. Jerry Reinsdorf is moving his team coverage from one media company he owns by majority to another media company he owns by majority. What’s next? A Campfire Milkshake scandal? (please)

    A White Sox Land Of Opportunity

    A White Sox Land Of Opportunity

    Oscar Colas may not be able to get an opportunity after the usual suspects went down with long-term injury, but that doesn’t mean a few prospects with minor league track records can’t get an extended look for the White Sox. We’ll tell you why you should be paying close attention to Lenyn Sosa and Korey Lee. We also chat with the man who penned a new Last Comiskey book in ”30 Minutes of Sox!”

    (Not So) Crazy White Sox Fixes

    (Not So) Crazy White Sox Fixes

    Flipping the White Sox roster into something competative is not that hard. It all depends on if Chris Getz sees what we see. Let us show you in ”30 Minutes of Sox” that identifies the stories and players that still matter this season. We also think you can squeeze some more offense out of the current team. Hear the tried and tested way to do it. Will Pedro figure it out for himself?

    Can We Fast-Forward To A White Sox Future?

    Can We Fast-Forward To A White Sox Future?

    It may be bad now. Really bad. Like awfully gross terrible bad. But 2024 should see a lot of roster movement and talent arriving pretty soon. They’re not going to save this mess, but they should bring hope of a not-so-distant future White Sox team. James Fox of FutureSox has the pitchers that will be arriving this year to bolster the staff, and the hitters that could be ready for a 2025 rebound. And we’re asking how long Pedro (and some aging veterans) have left in ”30 Minutes of Sox!”

The Pope sounds a lot like Rocky Balboa. Great interview.

The best show on White Sox baseball

This is my favorite podcast on the Sox. And I listen to all of them. Make this one your first listen when they post!

KT C. ,

Excellent show

I’ve been listening to Sox in the Basement for 2 years now and look forward to every single episode. Chris has a great program. Screw the corporate podcast! This by far beats every other Sox radio program out there. Keep up the great work guys.
