Luis Castillo doesn't look good. Did the White Sox fail in their pre-trade evaluation or is this a case of a player not listening to adjustment coaching? (Not a crazy thought, as the press corps actually asked about this post-game on Thursday.) One thing not beings asked is "why not elevate Drew Thorpe" and that's odd. Only 22 games remain and the White Sox have some tough choices to make if they want to cross the finish line in first. Video version on YouTube! Brought to you by Hayat Home Medical Equipment.

The White Sox are not firing on all cylinders, but they continue to do enough to hold onto their AL Central lead.

The White Sox will solve this starting pitching problem, right? If they don't, it could be big trouble. It won't be the kind of trouble that jumps multiple rows into an upper deck brawl, but it could be just as ugly! It isn't a real concern until the team chasing them in the standings gets to .500 baseball, right? Welp, don't look now.... Video version on YouTube! Brought to you by Hayat Home Medical Equipment.

It took far more days than it should have, but his name sits between two significant neighbors in the ballpark next to his retired number. We also had two days of fight at the perfect time.

It is inevitable that after your team unexpectedly becomes a contender that bumps in the road may cause some panic. We're here to calm you down a bit. You have several options at catcher. You can find pitching in this market. And Munetaka Murakami can be re-signed even if Shohei Ohtani wants to recruit him. (Yeah, that's a thing...supposedly.)
