Coming off a weekend where they were outscored 27-2 in a three-game sweep at the hands of the Astros, the White Sox bats broke out for a 10-4 victory over the […]

South Side Morning 5: A normal baseball game where nothing weird happened
Wednesday’s 4-3 victory over the Blue Jays will be remembered — if it’s remembered for anything — for the unusual play in the top of the 5th inning that will ultimately go down as nothing more than an RBI single by Yoan Moncada. But five impressive innings from Carson Fulmer, two more home runs, and […]
Predicting the White Sox Opening Day Roster
We’re less than a week from the White Sox breaking camp and there are at least a few decisions to be made regarding the make-up of the roster March 29 against the Royals. It’s important to remember that these decisions aren’t the end-all. Lest we forget, last year the White Sox broke camp with Cody […]
Carson Fulmer and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad spring
Spring Training results may not matter, but Spring Training performances matter, at least to a certain extent. Carson Fulmer’s latest start on Wednesday — he walked three and allowed seven earned runs, including three home runs, in just 1 2/3 innings — qualifies as something that matters. The 24-year-old has now walked 10 and allowed […]
White Sox Bring Back Miguel Gonzalez On One-Year Deal
While the eerily passive offseason continues, the White Sox remain active, albeit in a modest fashion appropriate for their situation. On Wednesday, Miguel Gonzalez agreed to return to the South Side on a one-year, $4.75 million contract. After pouncing on Gonzalez once Baltimore put him on waivers in 2016, he and Don Cooper gelled marvelously and […]
Plethora of pitching prospects puts White Sox in good position
“Prospects will break your heart” is a phrase you’ve likely read on a good number of occasions on this site and others. “Pitching prospects will break your heart” is even more apt, as any scout or evaluator can likely rattle off a good dozen or so examples of pitching prospects who failed to live up […]

Anti-Hero Tim Anderson & Carson Fulmer Update
The baseball world was thrilled Sunday, as Tigers starter Matt Boyd entered the ninth inning and quickly secured two outs, having yet to give up a hit. Tim Anderson, acting as the final boss, got ahead 2-0 and pounced on an attempted backdoor slider, which hung and caught too much of the outside corner. Anderson’s […]
South Side Morning 5: The good Carson Fulmer appeared
1. Things far more important than baseball were almost certainly circulating in Jose Abreu‘s mind this past weekend. With the homes and lives of nearly everyone he holds dear in danger thanks to hurricane Irma, Abreu had two of the best back-to-back games of his career. On Saturday he capped a tremendous night by legging […]
