Rundown[Intro] Chicago White Sox lose another series, but they played the Houston Astros tough and a few performances spark hope. Miguel Vargas had a monster game on Thursday that demonstrated some nights he's the best position player.[5:52] Who do the White Sox want batting with runners in scoring position? While Vargas has a monster OPS, Edgar Quero seems to have a knack in finding holes in the defense to help drive in runs. [15:36] Shane Smith in back-to-back starts helped the White Sox beat two of the American League's best in Detroit and Houston. He might not be an "Ace" yet, but the White Sox have found themselves a front line starter[26:16] Hello, Grant Taylor. The flamethrower makes his MLB debut and why it's OK to keep him in the bullpen[39:24] Series Preview: Texas Rangers. Why Texas reminds me of Buc-ee's, and can the White Sox keep it close against one of the best starting pitching staffs in baseball?[52:47] The College World Series starts this weekend, and if there's one game to watch, it's LSU vs. Arkansas on Saturday night.
Miguel Vargas had a HUGE day in Houston. Vargas tallied a triple, double, walk, and a steal in a losing White Sox effort. What does the future hold for Miguel Vargas with the Sox? Davis Martin had an iffy day on the mound. What went wrong for the righty? Plus, Brooks Baldwin has been fantastic since being sent down to AAA. What does he need to do to get called up? Join CHGO White Sox host, Sean Anderson as he recaps the game!
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.

Luis Robert Jr. broke out of his slump with his first home run since May 2nd. Robert also drove in a run with a sharp double to left. The Sox got another fantastic start from Shane Smith along with the debut of Grant Taylor to pick up the win against Jose Altuve and the Houston Astros. Join CHGO White Sox host, Sean Anderson for all the excitement!
Ownership change is coming! Greg examines why this strategic partnership came together now and why the Chicago Fire may have lit a fire under Jerry Reinsdorf. Plus, the excitement surrounding the call-up of Kyle Teel and where he fits best in order to get his and Edgar Quero's bat in the lineup every day.
Adrian Houser's journey to the South Side has been anything but ordinary. On the latest episode of The White Sox Podcast, Chuck Garfien talks with the veteran right-hander about his chaotic year across five organizations, how a reset in Triple-A led to a 72-hour fast and the carnivore diet, and why he's pitching better than ever. Houser also reflects on his infamous “throw-up games,” his immediate chemistry with rookie catcher Edgar Quero, and how he's embracing a mentor role in Chicago's rotation.
Luis Robert Jr. is in a deep slump, and Chuck Garfien is joined by Scott Merkin of MLB.com to unpack everything surrounding the White Sox center fielder—from his on-field struggles to the trade rumors swirling around him. Is the pressure getting to Robert? Can he turn it around before the deadline? And how much has his value dipped? The guys also discuss Kyle Teel working at first base in Triple-A, what that means for his development, and compare the 2025 squad to last year's team. Plus, insight on Andrew Vaughn, Edgar Quero, and whether this rebuild is finally starting to show some life.
With the advertised deadline for trading Luis Robert Jr. gone, duty geezer Leigh Allan and his son and west coast corespondent, Will, start off looking at some other trade possibilities. Will suggests Miguel Vargas' resurrection may not be for real and this would be a good time to trade him and get valuable returns. Leigh suggests one of the young starting pitchers, maybe Jonathan Cannon, despite word on the farm that Noah Shultz and Hagen Smith are both struggling. Both consider Andrew Benintendi — if the Sox eat a lot of salary — but decide that's not a Jerry-ish thing to do. Other fronts covered include Lenyn Sosa's ability to hit .280 but only have an on-base percentage of .298, the quandary of a defense that lacks a true shortstop, now or possibly nigh on forever, the unlikelihood that Mike Tauchman can sustain his current pace, the possibility of converting Edgar Quero to just a right-hand hitter if his huge splits continue, the likelihood Andrew Vaughn may be through as a major league (he's struggling in Charlotte), and how the schedule turns nasty after this weekend in Baltimore.

Chuck Garfien speaks with White Sox pitcher Jonathan Cannon about how he's improved as a pitcher in his second season in the majors and what it will take for the White Sox to become a winning team. Plus, a must-listen story about how Tim Elko crushed home runs in college against Cannon's Georgia Bulldogs while playing with a torn ACL, Edgar Quero's improvement as a catcher and more.
Guest: Jim Callis, MLB.comRundown[Intro] Jim Callis would like a wellness check to see how White Sox fans are doing?[8:05] Prospect review: Edgar Quero[11:35] Prospect review: Kyle Teel[14:53] Prospect review: Braden Montgomery[20:04] Prospect review: Hagen Smith[25:22] Prospect review: Noah Schultz[28:34] Prospect review: Colson Montgomery[31:24] Prospect review: Grant Taylor[35:00] 2025 MLB Draft chat - the updated Sox Machine Top 100 draft prospect list will be released this week. Josh is fixated on a group of prep infielders for the White Sox at pick 10, and Jim helps guide on building a group of five targets.
Rundown[Intro] The Chicago White Sox win a road series at Cincinnati in thanks to excellent pitching performances from Jonathan Cannon and Davis Martin. Are their arsenals getting better? Or are the Reds that bad at hitting? With the White Sox starters ERA now ranked 12th in MLB, does that grant more confidence in their overall ability?[11:15] Chase Meidroth, Edgar Quero, and Matt Thaiss all have impressive OBP, but very low slugging percentages. When will opposing teams stop nibbling and challenge these hitters in the zone?[24:54] White Sox trade for reliever Miguel Castro and claim infielder Vinny Capra[34:03] Series Preview: Chicago Cubs. Can the White Sox pitchers hold up against the Cubs very good lineup?[43:54] Luis Robert Jr. trade standing gets shakier. How many teams would offer multiple FV 45 grade prospects for Robert at this stage?
Is it sheer coincidence that with a White Sox fan in charge of things in the Vatican the team won three out of four prior to this recording? Duty geezer Leigh Allan and his son and current Ohio Valley correspondent (while doing a play in Cincinnati) Will delve into the papal impact, as Will points out that suffering is a major factor in Catholicism, which could well explain why Leo XIV became a White Sox fan even though his mother rooted for the Cubs and his father for the Cardinals (although, of course, he went on to become a cardinal himself). The cast ranges from the divine to the execrable, ending with a discussion on Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson and the fact MLB teams themselves operate virtual casinos and inundate innocent fans with efforts to tempt them into their dens of gambling iniquity, so banning the two is now hugely hypocritical. The duo have suggestions on how Cooperstown should cope with those so far banned for gambling, or worse, steroid use, suggestions that will never be followed. In between the discussion is all White Sox, from the pleasant, like how to handle having too many good players at one position (catcher) and the hitting of Edgar Quero and the rejuvenated Miguel Vargas. On the less pleasant side, it's the position situation at first base, with the question there being whether Tim Elko coming to the team has caused Andrew Vaughn to improve his play and whether it's possible, if Elko turns out to be for real after the league writes its book on him, a desperate Boston would take Vaughn to replace the injured Tristan Casas.

In the fifth episode of the 2025 season, Hannah Flippo, South Side Sox writer/editor and Sox Populi writer/podcaster, joins host Melissa Sage-Bollenbach to discuss several topics related to baseball, sports, and our beloved — or despised, depending on the day — South Siders.

So, sit back, relax, and grab your favorite beverage because the girls hit a home run conversing about all things, including: Prospect check-in: A rundown on the Edgar Quero and Chase Meidroth promotions. Trade thoughts: Is Luis making himself more tradable with an overall improvement over the last few weeks, as well as the increase in base stealing? Examining the division: Looking through the AL Central, are the Tigers really that good? Could we end up with four teams better than .500? White Sox trends: Will they be as bad this year as last? Are there some positive signs that things are improving? Fashion review: What has social media been telling us about how fans feel about the new City Connect uniform?

Chuck Garfien speaks with White Sox rookie catcher Edgar Quero who has quickly made an impact since being called up to the major leagues in mid-April.

On the most recent episode of FutureSox Hot Takes & Heaters Danny Miller and Jacob Thome discussed the early call ups of Chase Meidroth and Edgar Quero, and the DFA of Mike Clevinger. They also asked the question: Can the youth movement at 35th and Shields maintain the energy and mindset with a team that isn't likely to have a ton of success with their record? Also as always the chat was popping, and they answered some questions.
