Reasons to enjoy Chicago baseball
Chicago now has digested a month of uninspiring baseball on both sides of town. The reaction has me puzzled. "It's going to be a long summer," seems to be the most common response from fans and the media. No, it isn't. The Cubs and White Sox are on...

Jeter's ankle could leave Yankees in shackles
For 17 seasons, Derek Jeter has been the best reason to keep believing in baseball. His throwback approach has yielded daily excellence in the middle of the Yankees infield. He has kept life simple off the field, and that never seems to be a bad idea....

Ventura's heart into turning around Sox
Robin Ventura leads with his heart.
That's why he was flying into home plate on that awful night in Sarasota, Fla., 15 years ago. It's why he pushed himself beyond exhaustion in his recovery from an ankle damaged so bad it would ultimately require a rare...Tags: Chicago White Sox, Gordon Beckham, Miguel Cabrera, Jerry Reinsdorf, Jake Peavy

Sox manager remains in character — unflappable
ARLINGTON, Texas — It wasn't worse than a noogie from Nolan Ryan, but losing his first game as White Sox manager to Ryan's Rangers hurt Robin Ventura. Not that Ventura showed it. There are Mandarin dictionaries easier to read than Ventura. "I...

Sox must make tough calls on veteran pitchers
The bad news has come in for Gavin Floyd, just like it did for John Danks last August. Floyd will have season-ending elbow surgery Tuesday, meaning the White Sox will get no more return on the $9.5 million they’ll pay Floyd this season, just as...

Your Morning Phil: Liriano trade, Gregg, Dunn
Talking baseball while hoping Kirk Hinrich gets well soon: 1. At some point every July, I make this point: The odds are always with the teams selling talent at the trade deadline, not the ones giving up prospects to try to meet short-term opportunities....

Sox trade for Liriano shores up rotation
You have to hand it to Kenny Williams. While the White Sox general manager didn't land Zack Greinke, like the Angels' Jerry DiPoto, who did, he has found ways to improve on the fly. Williams filled major holes when he traded for Kevin Youkilis and Brett...Tags: Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Minnesota Twins, Gavin Floyd, Jake Peavy

Sox and Royals know rotations rule
Rick Hahn and Dayton Moore know one of the biggest realities of baseball and wasted no time acting upon it. If you're going to go to the playoffs, you better have a strong starting rotation. Last year, eight of the 10 postseason teams were in the...

Cubs, Sox can have success without winning

White Sox GM Ken Williams making all right moves

Ventura's challenge: Keep Sox hungry
As Robin Ventura found out during his first trip to jolly old England, any torture the White Sox felt at The Cell in September paled in comparison with what poor blokes used to endure inside the Tower of London. "The history of that spot is just mind-...

'Mob Wives Chicago' trailer debuts, CM Punk featured on video game cover, celeb-heavy crowd watches LMFAO perform at Studio Paris
For a minute there, I was wondering if there would be any fighting among the cast members of VH1’s upcoming reality show, “Mob Wives Chicago.” There were no signs of tension when I spent an afternoon observing the five women in March and...
