Top prospect Korey Lee isn’t hitting yet, but the White Sox are focusing on his development as a catcher first.
The White Sox didn’t need Monday to send their season into the realm of an unmitigated disaster. But that they’re 22 games under .500 while dealing with the fallout of Tim Anderson’s on-field boxing match and Keynan Middleton airing the clubhouse’s dirty laundry in an ESPN interview added to just how outrageous it is that this team is in the position it’s in.
The Chicago White Sox defeated the New York Yankees in the opener of their series Monday night. Dylan Cease allowed just 1 hit but walked 7 batters while not allowing a run.

The Chicago White Sox fell in the finale versus the Kansas City Royals and lost 3-of-4 in the series. It’s a disappointing series for the Sox in what was supposed to be an easy part of their schedule. The Royals walked off the Sox in the bottom of the 9th with a safety squeeze to end it. Adding injury to…
The Chicago White Sox buoyed by AN 11-RUN INNING (!) defeated the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday afternoon. The Sox entered the 2nd inning trailing 1-0 after Michael Kopech struggled in the opening frame. By the time the Sox were done batting that inning, Kopech had all of the support he would need. Hander Alberto and Gavin Sheets each homered, Andrew…
The Chicago White Sox rebounded in a big way Sunday afternoon, defeating the defending champion Houston Astros to split the opening series of the season.
