The Savannah Bananas are showing Jerry Reinsdorf and the White Sox how to pack a stadium right after the team celebrated Bill Veeck. What can the old miser learn from the last few days? He won't actually learn anything, but wow...this is quite a contrast in styles and success. Right? Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

The season will end with a lot more wins, but this is not a product close to contending. The changes needed, though, can be made quickly. Let;s talk about the good hitters and guys getting on base, but understand they are the anomaly. This offseason should be cutthroat and see additions to a very low payroll about to shed some dead weight. Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

Chris is so positive about Lenyn Sosa's hitting that he is relying on him during a fantasy baseball postseason run. Is that crazy? Take a look at the White Sox bats that are doing great things as we explain why this team will not lose 100 games this year. No...really! Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

Colson Montgomery is red hot and it may be all in his head. No, we're not saying his play is a figment of his imagination. It could be the torpedo bat. It could also be the psychology behind using one. Plus, a listener message sparks more thoughts about what is wrong with the TV broadcast...or more like who is wrong with it.

Curtis Mead and two AAA pitchers came over from the Rays for Adrian Houser at the trade deadline and it looks like a great deal. Luis Robert Jr didn't get dealt away and we think the reason is because the general manager understands the miserly ways of his owner. Get the breakdowns and what the last few days mean for the White Sox long-term. Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

Elijah Evans of Just Baseball and Future Sox gives his take on who the White Sox should move and what they will get at the Trade Deadline. We also take a look at what names to watch from their new draft class, how their next class of top prospects is doing and who will stick as real ballplayers out of the youngsters already on the big league club.

The White Sox playing the Cubs has lost some luster, but Will Venable wants to keep his young team playing like they did in Florida last series. We take a deep dive into Colson Montgomery's early plate results to find some exciting trends and The Sox Nerd does some "Dick Allen Time Travel" too! Brought to you by Cork & Kerry At The Park.

Is it the opponents? Is it the venues? Is it the rest for young guys or a push by vets to get traded to a contender?

After a documentary about Wrexham AFC got Chris all choked up, we're asking what the second half would look like if MLB had relegation. It would certainly prevent owners like Jerry Reinsdorf from operating like he does. We're also talking about those most likely to be traded before the deadline, what the White Sox are looking for in return and which players are worth the most on the trade market.

James Fox of FutureSox joins us to break down the White Sox draft strategy (which they followed) and what they should do in the second half with their core. Is there a gap between the current wave of prospects in the majors and the next wave? What can the team do to fix it? What should they do in 2026 that you may not expect?
