Game Thread: White Sox (6-13) at Athletics (10-9)
For their first West Coast road trip of the year, the Chicago White Sox need to find some gold. They’re looking to do so against the hot Athletics, who are 9-4 in their last 13 games. It’ll be a tall task, but if the Sox were able to dig deep and sweep the Toronto Blue […]
White Sox Minor League Update: April 16, 2026
Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 5, Charlotte Knights 3The Knights (7-10) took a 2-0 lead into the fifth and posted the same number of hits (seven) as the Jumbo Shrimp (10-8), but the Charlotte bullpen allowed five earned runs while the offense went 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position to seal their third loss in a row, […]
White Sox find new way to lose to Rays, 5-3
The automatic ball/strike system sure was a White Sox buddy this afternoon. That is, until a time came when even your friends couldn’t help enough. The Rays tried to be friendly, too, leaving 14 runners on base. That is, until the Sox pitching staff decided it was unfair not to let them score. The first […]
Game Thread: Rays (10-7) at White Sox (6-12)
The White Sox will be trying to salvage a win in a series where they’ve been pretty well thumped in the first two games, and the pitching staff may give a try at keeping the Rays to fewer than eight runs while they’re at it. This will be the first game where there’s no one […]
White Sox spoil back-to-back prospect debuts, lose another to Rays
Tonight’s game felt almost like déjà vu from Tuesday. The Rays (10-7) once again put up eight runs while a prominent Chicago prospect made their major league debut, dealing the White Sox (6-12) back-to-back losses, 8-3. Righthander Sean Burke was doing all right through four innings despite giving up a solo shot to Junior Caminero […]
White Sox Minor League Update: April 15, 2026
Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 3, Charlotte Knights 2The Knights (7-9) struggled in high-leverage situations, finishing 1-for-12 with runners in scoring position. As a result, they dropped a close game against the Jumbo Shrimp (9-8). Knights starter Duncan Davitt only pitched 2 1/3 innings, but he didn’t allow much damage. Davitt allowed a walk and a pair […]
Game Thread: Welcome to the show, Sam Antonacci
Happy Jackie Robinson Day to all who celebrate! The White Sox (6-11) dropped the first game of a three-game set with the Rays Tuesday behind Noah Schultz in his MLB debut, and righthander Sean Burke will take the mound in an effort to create any form of positive momentum for the team. As it stands, […]
Youth surge persists: Sam Antonacci gets promoted
The South Side isn’t messing around with its prospects. If last year was a youth wave, this year promises to bring a youth tsunami. On Wednesday, Springfield native Sam Antonacci was the third prospect of the 2026 season to be called up from Triple-A, immediately following the long-awaited arrival of Noah Schultz. Antonacci’s breakout in […]
Today in White Sox History: April 15
1915 It was the biggest shutout in team history, as the White Sox pasted St. Louis, 16-0. The Pale Hose put up seven runs before the home Browns even got to bat, and scored in every inning but the third, seventh and eighth. It was just a 15-hit assault with no homers, so how did […]
White Sox fall flat in Noah Schultz’s debut
It might not have been the perfect performance he hoped for, but Noah Schultz pushed through a rough first frame of his major league debut to finish his 4 1/3-inning outing strongly, despite the White Sox (6 -11) dropping the first game of the series to the Rays (9-7), 8-5. Schultz needed 33 pitches to […]
White Sox Minor League Update: April 14, 2026
Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp 3, Charlotte Knights 0’Twas the series opener against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, not a run was scored — hardly any hits! Charlotte’s lackadaisical stat line tells the whole story. Three hits, three RBIs, and a whopping 13 strikeouts sprinkled throughout the lineup. Somehow, Jarred Kelenic, who’s barely hanging onto his professional career, […]
Game Thread: It’s Noah Schultz Day!
Finally making the long-awaited jump to the major leagues, left-handed pitching prospect Noah Schultz got the call up on Saturday after an excellent start to his season with the Triple-A Charlotte Knights. In three games this season (two starts), Schultz has allowed just two earned runs on four hits in his 14 innings, surrendering one […]
No more Sosa, lots more so-so and offense no-go
If you told someone you were writing a script and had the White Sox at 6-10 a tenth of the way into the season, they’d reply, “Sounds about right. Extrapolates to a normal season for them.” If you then said that half the victories were against the defending AL champions, that same person would say, […]
White Sox Weekly: April 6 – 12, 2025
The Chicago White Sox went 2–5 this week. In many ways, that alone could serve as the recap. But even in a rough stretch, there were a few bright spots worth noting, and a few areas that weren’t so encouraging. Those themes break down into two familiar buckets: hitting and pitching. PITCHING In the interest […]
White Sox deal Lenyn Sosa to Toronto
The White Sox pulled the trigger on another early-season shuffle, packing off Lenyn Sosa to Toronto for outfielder Jordan Rich and the usual bag of mystery cash or future guy. Sosa, 26, leaves the South Side after five seasons of fits and starts. Signed as a kid out of Venezuela in 2016, up for air […]

Who is the biggest White Sox rival and the team you hate the most?
We’ve spent plenty of time talking ourselves into hope. Convincing ourselves that this rebuild will be different, that this time the plan will actually resemble a plan, that the next good White Sox team won’t just be a two-year window duct-taped together with waiver claims and good vibes. But let’s be honest, hope is fragile […]
White Sox Minor League Update: April 12, 2026
Charlotte Knights 13, Memphis Redbirds 4Making his first start in Triple-A upon being sent down from the big leagues, righthander Shane Smith allowed three runs on four hits in four innings of work, but thankfully the Charlotte offense was able to make up for it as the Knights (7-7) defeated the Redbirds (11-4), 13-4. Twelve […]
Cannon to the right of them, walks to the left: Sox split series with erratic 6-5 win
White Sox pitchers these days have to feel something like the cavalry riders of Lord Tennyson’s vivid description of the Charge of the Light Brigade: Galloping hopelessly into a unrepentant line of cannonfire (or Cannon-fire, in today’s case) knowing that offensive support is minimal and death is more or less certain. The Kansas City Royals […]
Game Thread: White Sox (5-10) at Royals (7-8) (late start, rain)
Needless to say, the pitching hasn’t been the problem for the White Sox as of late. The staff has a 1.27 ERA and sub-one WHIP over the last nine games … during which time the ineptitude of the offense has led them to just a 3-6 record. The sluggishness is to be expected. We’ve seen […]
Youth movement: Noah Schultz gets the call
I was in Los Angeles for an MLB The Show tournament, eating dinner at my hotel with my eyes glued to the TV on the other side of the bar, when the Chicago White Sox drafted Noah Schultz, an 18-year-old left-handed reliever from Oswego East High School, for the 26th overall pick. “That’s my rival […]
White Sox Minor League Update: April 11, 2026
Louisville Redbirds 6, Charlotte Knights 4The Redbirds have done a number on several Knights relievers this series, and this time it was Tyler Schweitzer’s turn to face the music. Schweitzer earned the loss after giving up the go-ahead, three-run homer off a changeup right down the pipe. Korey Lee attempted to rally a comeback by […]
White Sox bats still made of marshmallow, fall to Royals, 2-0
This game had three highlights: Fedde pitched a fine game today. Michael Wacha pitched a better one. Fedde made one mistake, starting the game after a short rain delay with a get-me-over first pitch to settle in, a pitch Maikel García deposited 412 feet away. Well, two mistakes, the other being a case of chronic […]
Game Thread: White Sox (5-9) at Royals (6-8)
Having traded 2-0 victories (or losses, if you prefer), two of the worst offensive teams in the majors — White Sox 29th in runs per game, Royals 27th — take another stab at trying to figure out where a ball was pitched this afternoon in the third of a four-game series in Kansas City. The […]
Early impressions of the 2026 White Sox
Two weeks into the season and the 2026 White Sox roller coaster already has been twisting us left, right, up and down. In such a tumultuous time, the Sox have swung between being swept to being the sweepers faster than Yermín Mercedes peaked and then abruptly retired from baseball in 2021. Ah, such memorable times […]
