Sox In The Basement

Elijah Evans of Just Baseball and Future Sox gives his take on who the White Sox should move and what they will get at the Trade Deadline. We also take a look at what names to watch from their new draft class, how their next class of top prospects is doing and who will stick as real ballplayers out of the youngsters already on the big league club.

The White Sox playing the Cubs has lost some luster, but Will Venable wants to keep his young team playing like they did in Florida last series. We take a deep dive into Colson Montgomery's early plate results to find some exciting trends and The Sox Nerd does some "Dick Allen Time Travel" too!

Is it the opponents? Is it the venues? Is it the rest for young guys or a push by vets to get traded to a contender? The White Sox got off to a hot start to start the second half, and we're diving into what that means now and for the future.

After a documentary about Wrexham AFC got Chris all choked up, we're asking what the second half would look like if MLB had relegation. It would certainly prevent owners like Jerry Reinsdorf from operating like he does. We're also talking about those most likely to be traded before the deadline, what the White Sox are looking for in return and which players are worth the most on the trade market.

James Fox of FutureSox joins us to break down the White Sox draft strategy (which they followed) and what they should do in the second half with their core. Is there a gap between the current wave of prospects in the majors and the next wave? What can the team do to fix it? What should they do in 2026 that you may not expect?

The White Sox drafting well is important, but what they do after the draft will say more about the future.  Does Chris Getz' track record suggest anything about how this plays out? Or will Sox fans just have to wait and hope things...and players...develop for the best.  The Sox Nerd pay homage to Bobby Jenks and recaps some notable beef from the Sox' past all in 30 minutes oh White Sox talk.

The White Sox roster is a mixture of future pieces and players they would like to move before the deadline.

July will bring the All Star Game and a weekend celebration around the 2005 World Championship team, but there are more important things to look for this month when watching the current White Sox roster. A couple of true ballplayers have emerged, and a few guys are on the cusp of joining them as true members of the next core. There are series to be one and careers to be impacted forever this month.

What really happens when you get banned from MLB ballparks? One White Sox heckler is about to find out as we discuss the right (and very wrong) ways to heckle at a Sox game. A couple of players who had big months in May have slid in June. Should we be worried? And we find the catch in an upcoming Championship Season event that asks "would you still go?"

The next few weeks have a lot of different offerrings for the fanbase at the ballpark. So, what gets you out to a White Sox game? We're also asking if this team has a late-season burst of wins in it, if anyone wants Luis Robert Jr for the second half and what Jerry Reinsdorf's lair looks like in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

The White Sox have made a great deal of moves over the past week as the team has gone into a pre-trade dealine mode. Propsects and possible trade pieces look to dominate playing time and the roster. We talk about the neames to watch, why the Andrew Vaughn trade is amazing, and a young pitcher in the bullpen to watch closely. Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

ANDREW VAUGHN IS GONE!! That matters!  Aaron Civale arrives.  That matters!  Grant Taylor matters!  We know that Chase Meidroth, Kyle Teel and Edgar Quero matter.  James Fox of Future Sox joins in the discussion to talk about the other players that matter and who might matter real soon, including what type of return in the next big trade might matter the most.  And of course no one matters more than our listeners...who will also get some catcher nuggets from the Sox Nerd and get to find out about Wil Venable's...binkie?

The White Sox have some real ballplayers and the youth movement is suddenly on after this past weekend. We have a perplexing question about Joshua Palacios, though. It goes something like "why is Joshua Palacios stealing at bats from Edgar Quero?" Another question has to do with next season. Are the White Sox closer to getting out of the basement in the AL Central than previously thought? Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Jerry Reinsdorf is selling his team. It could happen between 4 and 9 years from now. So are White Sox fans in The Good Place or The Bad Place? We break down the real reason for the deal and if there is any good to find in it for the fanbase. Meanwhile Kyle Teal makes his debut and the Sox Nerd joins us as well in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

Jerry Reinsdorf had another bad day this week as the Chicago Fire swooped in with a privately owned stadium for The 78. Turns out threats to move your baseball team and demands for public funding are so 1980's. Meanwhile Luis Robert Jr looks cooked and the only question remaining is what kind of team would give anything up for him. We tackle these topics and more in "30 Minutes of Sox!"

The Miguel Vargas turnaround continues to astound, but is he the prototype for the ideal White Sox hitter? The return for the Matt Thaiss trade matches other acquisitions, and the internal hitters that are performing have some traits that are starting to define the Sox offensive type.  But this new White Sox way may have a flaw.  The Sox Nerd talks catchers, homers and the Pope while Chris trolls Twins fans and sets his expectations for the rest of this season in 30 minutes of White Sox.   Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park. Chris Lanuti and Ed Siebert sit at his 9-foot homemade oak bar in a basement on the South Side of Chicago to discuss their favorite team - The Chicago White Sox in a podcast "For Fans, By Fans!"

Andrew Vaughn heads to the minors. (Tim Elko too.) Matt Thaiss is traded to break up a catching logjam as Korey Lee returns. Now Will Venable gets to set a lineup that looks a lot like what we were suggesting months ago. We look at the positives and the players starting to show they may be part of the team's future plans as some of these guys look like actual ballplayers for the White Sox.

There is a reason the White Sox had to sign a 5th starter rather than promote from within. The arms down on the farm aren't quite ready. Some of the bats are, though, but supporting teammates for the next wave of talent is needed sooner rather than later.
