On Friday, while former White Sox skipper Ozzie Guillen was sounding off on WMVP AM 1000, the team made an interesting signing, when they announced that they had agreed to a minor league contract with former college football standout Mitch Mustain. The former quarterback from USC has decided to hang up his football cleats, and take his 90 mph fastball to the pitching mound. It is moves like ...
Kenny Williams put the Chicago White Sox through a significant rebuilding process to pare down the payroll. That left the White Sox with unimpressive prospects to compete for the playoffs. Williams also left White Sox vice president of marketing Brooks Boyer with little to go with for a slogan. Boyer rolled out the White Sox slogan for the 2012 season last week. The slogan is titled "Appreciate ...

Chicago White Sox pitcher Jake Peavy is considered to be a competitor on the mound. The trouble is, he hasn't been in a position to compete over the last two seasons. After all, in order to compete, one has to show up. Peavy's host of injuries hasn't allowed that to happen much since the White Sox traded for him in the summer of 2009. Arriving on your new club while still injured is never a good ...
The Chicago White Sox play in the weakest division in Major League Baseball. Over the past three seasons, the team's record against this feeble group is a mighty 102-114. Needless to say, the Pale Hose aren't going to win many division titles if this trend continues in the future. The White Sox are like the Golden State Warriors of baseball—they play to their level of competition. Bring in ...
The Chicago White Sox saw two Brent Morels in 2011. One was a polarizing player throughout last summer. The other was a guy I could see manning third base for 10 years. Morel's first full-time exposure to the big leagues saw him eventually play 126 games. For the season, he hit. 245 with 10 homers. These are numbers that, taken at face value, were acceptable in my eyes for a team that was ...

He is signed through 2013 and told reporter Chuck Garfein of CSN Chicago that two more ...
Omar Vizquel is one the greatest shortstops in MLB history, perhaps the greatest. He was a defensive genius and is closing in on 3,000 hits. Vizquel joined the Chicago White Sox in 2010, and in signing with the White Sox, joined an elite class. While it looked like he might end up retiring as a member of the White Sox, Vizquel signed with the Toronto Blue Jays last week. That class isn't the one ...
White Sox know chemistry will be key
The Chicago White Sox have reinforced their recent commitment to acquiring talent in Latin America.
The word was last week that the Boston Red Sox preferred to sign free agent hurler Roy Oswalt to a deal. Failing that, they would try to trade with the Chicago White Sox for Gavin Floyd.

The Chicago White Sox have signed first baseman Dan Johnson to a minor league contract, according to Marc Topkin of the St. Petersburg Times . Johnson had previously been with the Tampa Bay Rays since being acquired by them in 2008.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Adam Dunn used the first week of his offseason to chill out and get a much needed break from the misery he endured in his first year with the Chicago White Sox.
On Dec. 2, 2010, Chicago White Sox fans rejoiced as the South Side faithful's heads filled with the image of a world championship in 2011. In adding perennial slugger Adam Dunn, it seemed as if the team had stacked the middle of its lineup with a triple-threat of Dunn, Paul...

The Chicago White Sox have a notorious uniform history. They've worn tuxedos . They've worn pajamas . They've even worn shorts. Shudder . Amid a virtual minefield of fashion, the team has announced it is reaching into history to pull a retro look forward. And it's not horrifyingly ugly. The White Sox will wear red pinstripes for home Sunday games in 2012, replicas of uniforms they sported in the ...

Ozzie Guillen is apparently angry.

In the latest of a seemingly endless saga regarding manager Ozzie Guillen's departure from the Chicago White Sox to the Miami Marlins, Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf issued a statement saying he allowed Guillen to leave despite Guillen's desire to finish the 2011 season with the Sox.
With the start of spring training right around the corner, fans of the Chicago White Sox have plenty to look forward to this season including a brand new manager to guide the team. Will this be the year the White Sox surprise everyone and claim a World Series championship?
Quieter. But I'll lend some more thought to Ozzie's departure from Chicago. Being an avid White Sox fan since birth, I've only experienced the tenures of Jerry Manuel and Ozzie Guillen. I remember being 12 years old in 2004 and being super pumped about Kenny Williams making Ozzie the manager of my beloved White Sox. He was a household name and I was young, so naturally it was a great ...

In the wake of Ozzie Guillen's departure, the White Sox appear at a loss to determine just who they are.
Ozzie Guillen has again used to Twitter to air his grievances.
With two games left in the season for the Chicago White Sox , Ozzie Guillen walked away from his players, his coaching staff and the City of Chicago. Are the White Sox better off without Ozzie at the helm? Short answer…Yes they are. Not only did Guillen wear out his welcome on the South Side, but he isn’t very good at managing anymore. Over the last five seasons, according to Baseball Reference ...
It's going to be culture shock for the White Sox beat writers this spring, as the team downshifts from Ozzie Guillen's spice rack to Robin Ventura's vanilla personality. Ventura's dialect will be a lot easier to understand, but he's unlikely to fill up the notebooks the way Guillen did over the last eight seasons. Ozzie probably came out of the womb with sound bytes ready to go. Other than one ...

Robin Ventura played his last game for the White Sox 14 years ago, and he hasn't had anything to do with their team since then. Yet in his soul he never said to Chicago what White Sox fans sing to visiting pitchers as they trudge from the mound: "Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, hey hey, good-bye."
Manto: White Sox role is 'great opportunity'
From the moment that Mark Buehrle signed a four-year, $58 million deal to join the Miami Marlins , Chicago White Sox fans wondered aloud who would replace him. After all, they would be replacing more than a pitcher who won 13 games and posted an ERA of 3.59. They have to replace a mainstay in the White Sox organization for 11 productive seasons. The search for in-house replacements was sketchy ...
Despite General Manager Kenny Williams' e spoused goal to rebuild in 2012, the White Sox 's farm system looks bleak in 2011. Organizational rankings everywhere have been painting a bleak picture. Although Bill James ranked the White Sox as being a Top 10 team in his "Young Talent Index" in 2009, most of those young players now play at the Major League level and their replacements in the minors ...
For Chicago White Sox fans, the word rebuilding is a filthy term. No, I do not mean the term that scouts use when describing the 12-6 curve ball of Gavin Floyd. On the contrary, it is used as the term that turns fans away. When you look at the current payroll of the Sox, the top three players in the salary structure have been huge disappointments thus far. Jake Peavy ($15 million), Alex Rios ...

Until last fall, the Chicago White Sox, Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals never all changed managers in the same offseason. But there is an even more amazing fact regarding the new hires.

When Robin Ventura answered the challenge of becoming the manager of the Chicago White Sox three months ago, he understood he would experience things he never imagined.
The Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox are both in similar phases of organization development. They have moved away from the idea of signing high-priced free agents in favor of bringing in organization depth and developing it for the parent club. Both team has the ability to sign a free agent if needed, and they have, but the makeup of these teams are becoming the same as they bring up ...
The White Sox will finally play a meaningful August and September this year. I refuse to believe the (carrier-sized) anchor representing their contracts will sink the Sox in 2012; after all, there is no chance they will post a combined effort equaling 2011's dismal effort. Looking back, the Dunn acquisition was so bad I'm starting to suspect Kenny Williams sleeps in red and blue; however ...
The White Sox send mixed messages, the Blue Jays, Red Sox and Reds fortify their bullpens, and the best available centerfielder (not counting Yoenis Cespedes) and two of the best platoon outfielders in the game all re-sign with their 2011 teams in this week's edition of Hot Stove Roundup.
