Possibly the weirdest roster snafus in a single season continue, as Harry Gleason (brother of future White Sox manager Kid Gleason) is signed by Chicago — but chooses to report to his former team, the Boston Red Sox (née Americans), instead!

However, that was before February 9, when Brandon Drury joined the club on a minor league deal.

Since then, Drury has menacingly mashed as a...

What if the White Sox were to line up in 2025 based on spring stats?

Deepest hole on Earth, or White Sox shortstop situation? | jagranjosh.com

It would definitely make for an interesting lineup

It’s well established that you should never make much of anything of teams’ spring training records, though the White Sox 5-13-1 reecord may prove a little too close to how things will go when games count. Each team has a different way of looking at exhibition games, using, for example, a different balance of major and minor league players.

Likewise, it’s...

Chicago White Sox: One positional dilemma that could make for a tough decision

The Chicago White Sox have a few positional battles happening in camp that could come down to the wire. The one battle going on in camp that will figure to be a tough decision to make is the catching position, which has two players vying for the starting job for this season.

All-time White Sox playing and managing great Fielder Jones died, at age 62, in Portland. His 32.0 WAR for the club ranks 10th all-time among hitters and places him as the best center fielder in White Sox history. Jones was staggeringly good with the White Sox, never dipping below a 3.1 WAR season and leaving the game after a 1908 season that saw him tally 4.7...

Chicago pitchers dominate while offense falls short yet again

Pitching was the story of today’s Spring Training tale, and it will likely be the narrative all season long. The White Sox hurlers held the Angels hitless through four and impressively demonstrated the depth of the system’s arms.

On the other hand, the offense is about as dry as the Arizona desert. It wasn’t for lack of...

Chicago White Sox outfielder provides hilarious quote after joining the squad

The Chicago White Sox have been hit by the injury bug this spring and needed to add to their depth to compensate for the loss. Recently, the White Sox signed outfielder Travis Jankowski to a minor-league deal with an invite to spring training to possibly be a backup outfielder on the Sox bench.
