We just found $50,000,000 for Chris Getz to spend AFTER Jerry Reinsdorf reduces the White Sox to the bottom five in payroll next season. How did we do it? We just followed the blueprint of bottom-feeding MLB franchises and did some simple math. Time for the White Sox GM to prove he can do his job. Brought to you by Cork And Kerry At The Park! Listen.

Chris Getz spoke. He probably shouldn't do that. We ask how one of the dealers could be confused by the cards he was dealt this season. Our suggestion is the next time he speaks, it should be with honesty. As the White Sox march to historic losing records, where is the professional pride? Brought to you by Cork And Kerry At The Park!

The 2024 White Sox are the worst baseball team you have ever seen. We would rather talk about the 2025 White Sox, who better not be this bad. They don't have to be.

Before the availability of advanced statistics, would people be as critical of the White Sox? We use a time machine back to 1986 to ask if fans recognized bad the same way as they do in the modern era, and look for any rays of hope on the 2024 White Sox. One thing is for certain. They don't make ballplayers like the used to. Brought to you by Cork And Kerry At The Park! Listen. Subscribe. Share. Call 708-459-8406 and leave your comments and questions for the next episode!

The Grady Sizemore (temporary) era may have just begun, but you can see some legit changes in how players are viewed by the organization. More consistant lineups have produced greater offensive results and roles seem defined. As Chris Gets gets ready to speed date every managerial candidate he can prior to the 2025 season, we can already see the type of skipper that would work best for the White Sox. Can Jerry Reinsdorf stay out of the way?  Brought to you by Cork And Kerry At The Park! Listen. Subscribe. Share. Call 708-459-8406 and leave your comments and questions for the next episode!

The White Sox snapped a 21-game losing streak on Tuesday night. Does it matter? After this season, no amount of support from lame-duck manager Pedro Grifol can reverse the failure of White Sox majority owner Jerry Reinsdorf. His lack of action lately, for whatever the reason, is already harming future seasons as a fanbase waits for the end of his reign.  Brought to you by Cork And Kerry At The Park! Listen. Subscribe.
