Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…
“We know about how Manny Machado went there over the White Sox and how they have Fernando Tatis Jr who was White Sox property before the James Shields trade. As exciting as that would have been, the White Sox aren’t going to be landing Frazier as they got some bad news on Sunday night. They are a good team that is trying to win just like the White Sox. The Chicago White Sox are going to be the best version of themselves by the playoffs.”
“The Chicago White Sox have gotten everything they need and more from Lance Lynn. Lance Lynn came up big as he only allowed the Brewers one run in six innings of work. It wasn’t just his work on the mound that helped the White Sox win either. Lance Lynn’s pace is as good as any Chicago White Sox pitcher ever.”

Jimenez required surgery after suffering a ruptured…”

The ace of Chicago’s dominant starting rotation held Milwaukee to one run over six innings, while also driving in two runs, to lead the White Sox to a 3-1 victory over the Brewers at American Family Field. The White Sox are looking to solidify their lead and prepare for what they hope is a deep postseason run. The White Sox nine-game advantage is the largest among the six division leaders in MLB.”
““I don’t think Eloy being here is going to take at-bats away from Andrew,” La Russa said. “I also understand it’s supposed to be steaming hot in Kansas City, so we’ll factor that into all four days.” “He’s swinging free and easy, but I think it’s going to be more about getting his timing at the plate,” La Russa said. “We’re excited,” White Sox manager Tony La Russa said Sunday. “I think we’ll just see for ourselves, but I understand both [positions] are available,” La Russa said.”
