 yet since the last thing the Cubs should want is to hold a team on an 11-game shedding. Sox lost Sunday, their 11th straight. Hope the Cubs do not get involved in the catch series state of mind. The White Sox franchise business document shedding streak is 13, established 100 years earlier in 1924. The manager of the Sox for many of that year was previous Cubs hero Johnny much more on the Sox, below's Brett Ballantini, editor-in-chief of our SB Country White Sox site South Side Sox.

You on the North Side were all poised to ascend back into the playoffs instead of whatever last year remained in the stretch, swipe a playoff collection or two, and established up a great title contention run in the back half of the 2020s. When it comes to the White Sox, well, we don't really mind that Rob Manfred called off 2024. The 101-loss group of 2023 would have been firing straight at the franchise high of 106 in 2024, so as high as we miss baseball it's not actually a big loss not having games used the South Side this summer.I mean, what type of desperation moves would the White Sox have wound up making to eschew a young people movement and try to "refill" right into contention?
