He seems to be putting in the work and hopefully the results will pay off in due time. White Sox farm system has...

After a day full of drama, the Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees on the South Side, 5-1. A lot was made of the Jesse Rodgers article that featured former Sox reliver Keynan Middleton describing the organization as having a culture problem. Middleton went into detail about players sleeping in the bullpen, showing up late for practice and there being an absence of leadership. It's not the first time a former White Sox player has questioned how things are done within the organization....

The only Sox offense was a Seby Zavala solo homerun. Former White Sox pitcher, Dane Dunning, put on a show. Dunning was magnificent and probably got a...

The White Sox shipped off Jake Burger to Miami and Keynan Middleton to NY then lost to the Rangers, 2-0. It perhaps was not the bombshell that fans were waiting for but it still was a surprise.

There's a jog jam at nearly every position he could play in 2024 so the Sox moved him for a left-handed pitching...
