The King arrives, just in time for Saturday’s White Sox fanfest

If you are like me, you can’t wait for the spring games to start. The crowds, the food, just the overall experience of watching some of the greatest players in the world playing within arms reach. I know a lot of you have travelled a long way to watch your boys start what could be [...]

Dunn should be done with talking about last year.

All but 2 players are in Sox camp as of Sunday, the 26th. Dayan Viciedo and Paul Konerko are the lone holdouts. Konerko should stay out as long as possible, because the second he walks in he’ll be mobbed by the media. I’m sure Viciedo will as well, but Konerko is the man on the [...]

Sox quietly building quite a team

Day 3 of White Sox camp was relatively quiet. Manager Robin Ventura appears to be acclimating himself rather nicely. He is so non-discript, I guess I’ll compare him to a ninja. There have been times when I don’t see him at all, but seconds later I look and he’s standing right next to me. The [...]

It’s only one day, but optimism abounds at Sox camp.

You may think I am crazy, but I think this Sox team is going to be better than most expect. I don’t think they’re are going to win 100 games, but I do believe they will compete for the Central Division title. I am basing that on nothing. It wasn’t like the players went through [...]

Fukudome comes back to Chicago as a member of the White Sox

It was huge news years back in 2008 when the former Japanese star signed with the Cubs, and not the Sox. 4 somewaht disappointing seasons later and all is forgiven between the two. Fukudome will be the [...]

According to MLB, The prospects for the White Sox are not good

So I was reading about baseball’s top prospects on MLB & the bleacher report. If you go by that, the Sox don’t have many top prospects in the top 100. To be more clear, they have 2 on one, and 1 on the other. Addison Reed was #100 on MLB, while he was 82 on [...]

Sox get win #1 over the Tigers…..And what in the world is Southpaw?

Man, am I a bonehead. I’ve been real busy the past 2 days, and haven’t checked my e-mail of late. If I would have, I would’ve noticed the Baseball IQ series featuring White Sox Director of Baseball Ops Dan Fabian going against Ron Wade from the Tigers. I tuned in late, and I didn’t like [...]
