THIS IS

Interesting choice to put this up on the scoreboard for eight seconds while the stadium is full of reporters

Eldest son: Daddy, can we have Portillo's at home? Me: Sorry, bud. Portillo's isn't in Massachusetts. Eldest son: That's silly. Me: I agree

Culver's

Wait, what?

Well, for the first time in my life I have to deal with a flight cancellation

WELP

Final: White Sox 3, Guardians 1. Colson Montgomery hit a tie-breaking solo home run in the 8th. Sean Burke struck out 11 in 6 innings. The Sox (46-42) are tied for 1st in the AL Central with the Guardians (47-43).

Quite a cool job @bostonglobe.com did on their website for America's 250th birthday.

The scenario that I can think of that would explain the Jaylen trade is that Chisholm didn't think the Celtics could compete for a championship as currently constructed and isn't willing to pay the luxury tax or apron penalties as a result.

Has Nancy decided who she's gonna give her face-stabbin knife to when she retires? Based on some of the stuff these new nominees have said and likely believe, it's gonna be needed in the next 2 years.

Caleb Bonemer is going to represent the White Sox at the Futures Game. As a beefy Midwestern guy who hits lot of dingers, he fits their whole vibe.

If Markey has to trot out a Bernie endorsement, that might be a signal that this race is closer than people think.

Have you exceeded your win total from the 2024 season as of this morning? 29 MLB teams: What? Hell no, it's June 27th! White Sox: Yes

This dude knows he's screwed for 2028 when his district gets wiped out by Minnesota Dems. His only hope is to carpetbag another district that's way more rural than his current one.

Tremendous work by agents and rival execs trying to drive a wedge between Jaylen and the team. Expert-level sabotage. Not transparent at all.

Holy overpayment, Batman!

The White Sox returned catcher Kyle Teel from his injury rehabilitation assignment at Triple-A Charlotte, reinstated him from the 60-day injured list and optioned catcher Edgar Quero to Charlotte.

Kyle Teel is back in hopes of rescuing a White Sox catching situation that grades out as the worst in baseball. soxmachine.com/2026/06/kyle...

I hopped on to "The Asian Game" podcast to talk about the Japan 🇯🇵 - Tunisia 🇹🇳 game! Lots to discuss about Hajime Moriyasu's starting XI changes, Ao Tanaka's inclusion in midfield, ... and more! #FIFAWorldCup open.spotify.com/episode/0CDH...

TFW your kid's birthday party goes way better than you expected.

Japanese fans have been pickled in Strong Zero I promise you they can handle some buzzballs!

An alert that just appeared in VCC at my job: "The Tartan Army is marching through Providence." This is gonna be an interesting week on-call

Phew, thank Christ

White Sox say Hagen Smith has left shoulder impingement. Initial plan is two weeks of no throwing, followed by two more weeks of ramping up throwing before he returns to game action. So, total projection that he's out four weeks.

16 years after becoming a Samurai Blue fan, I finally saw them in person. Very emotional.

White Sox have promoted Caleb Bonemer to Double-A Birmingham

It appears that the White Sox are now just playing "Strokin'" over the PA every time they hit a home run. This is truly the franchise's new golden age. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ35...

Another trade: White Sox have acquired OF Nolan Jones and cash considerations from Cleveland for $250K in IFA bonus pool space. Jones is going to Triple-A Charlotte.

I’m busy, read it for yourself

BREAKING: The #Phillies are acquiring center fielder Derek Hill and international bonus money from the Chicago White Sox for outfield prospect Dylan Campbell and infield prospect Jose Colmenares.

Another shocking announcement, Wataru Endo announces that he is RETIRING completely from the Japan National Team.

Spoke to White Sox hitting director Ryan Fuller about some elements of their offensive identity that I found interesting. If you get something out of it, that's cool too. soxmachine.com/2026/06/talk...

Rain's about 20 minutes away from the Rate. #WhiteSox

This sure is a lineup

Can confirm the White Sox are calling up Braden Montgomery

The White Sox say Brandon Eisert is opening for Erick Fedde tomorrow

Stacey King had a really thankless task when he was designated as the successor to Johnny Red Kerr on the Bulls TV broadcasts. It really shows how good of a job he did that whoever succeeds him in that role will have an even more thankless task than Stacey did circa 2007-08.

Aww man

That's potentially not good

Imagine staying on X for the sports...

Hall of Famer Ned Jarrett has passed away at the age of 93.

Indiana is literally going to pay the Bears to move there and then give them the stadium in 20 years. Indiana residents like to point fingers and laugh at Illinois residents, but folks, your state govt just gave the farm to the stupid ass McCaskey Family. Have fun!

Have fun with that.

Blowouts are always welcome on days I have the recap soxmachine.com/2026/06/whit...

A baseball player creating a run all by themselves on a non-homer is cool. Acuna walked, stole second, and forced a throwing error on an attempted steal of third, which he then scored off of. #WhiteSox

Austin Hays has recurring soreness in his injured left calf, and the White Sox are halting his rehab assignment for now. Also in Charlotte Knights developments: LaMonte Wade Jr. has been released.
