June 30 - White Sox are officially BACK

Suds, Schwab, JT, Nick Senior, and special guest Joe Lags jump on to recap another fun stretch for the White Sox as the team continues to stay right in the mix heading toward the All-Star break.

The guys talk through the biggest storylines from the recent run, including:

  • The Sox bouncing back after a tough Tigers series and taking care of business against Cleveland, Kansas City, and Baltimore
  • Jacob Gonzalez heating up and creating a real lineup decision once Mune comes back
  • Miguel Vargas looking like the team’s first-half MVP and continuing to emerge as a major piece of the young core
  • Sammy Antonacci becoming a fan favorite, getting on base, getting hit by pitches, and changing the culture
  • Braden Montgomery, Kyle Teel, Colson Montgomery, and the rest of the young lineup making the Sox fun again
  • The debate over who stays in the lineup once everyone is healthy
  • Whether the Sox should go big at the deadline and trade prospects for a starter like Logan Webb
  • The need to add pitching while balancing patience with a team that may be ahead of schedule
  • The excitement of talking about adding pieces instead of selling them

The vibes are high, the fans are showing up, and the Sox are giving everyone a reason to believe as they head into a huge series against Cleveland.

We're here every week to talk White Sox Baseball. Four White Sox fans from the Northwest side of Chicago that grew up going to Sox games. From the Big Hurt to Paulie K to TA, we are on our 4th generation of White Sox teams and we love the pain of losing as much as we love the joy of winning.

Our show covers an array of topics. We are always looking to keep things in perspective with a positive outlook but always looking for ways to constructively criticize our beloved. We also like to spend time covering future White Sox prospects and trending White Sox topics.

Segments you can expect to hear each week include:
