Sox In The Basement

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.

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!" Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

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? Enjoy "30 Minutes of Sox!"

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!" Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

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.

Due to an issue with Apple Podcasts this was published to test the feed and fix an issue.

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. Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

Will Venable has been trying something new with his lineups. It isn't old school. It isn't new school. The White Sox manager is stacking OBP because he has an incomplete lineup. In Cincinnati it actually worked very well. We also update the White Sox Gatekeeping Affair from last Saturday night as it becomes more apparent that there may be a security issue at the ballpark. (Yes, other than that time someone reportedly got shot last year.) Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

After some fans get denied entry with valid tickets, we're asking what the White Sox are doing. You would think this team would want people in the ballpark. Tim Elko is here and you can add him to a list of players that should be featured the rest of the season. Very soon, though, decisions will have to be made as a roster crunch approaches.

Will Miguel Vargas work out? Is the team right to stick with Andrew Vaughn? Can Colson Montgomery be fixed? Is Tim Elko not ready yet? The answers depends on your belief in White Sox talent evaluation. Either they are going to prove us all wrong, or unfortunately very right.

Travel back in time to 1992 as we find an old, faded newspaper poll on the White Sox. Over 30 years ago fans wrote in their opinions on the team, players, front office and ownership. Their take in the 90's may give you a solid chuckle as we try to understand perplexing non-action being taken by those running today's team.
