Back before the season started in July — a clause that continues to be strange to write — I listed a dozen players who didn’t end up on the White Sox to open the season, but whose performances held my…
When AvisaÃl Garcia left Chicago for Tampa Bay after the 2018 season, there was no reason for White Sox fans to feel regret or remorse. His career with the Sox had run its course, because the White Sox never got…
Coming over from FanGraphs to appear on ESPN.com, Craig Edwards tried to identify one player in each organization who could crash the 26-man roster from outside the 40-man one. For the White Sox, he chose Tayron Guerrero, which makes sense.…
