White Sox need more starts like Quintana's
Jose Quintana does not tiptoe into a room. He opens the door and waltzes right in, sometimes to stick around, sometimes to be promptly escorted out. It's a direct approach, one built around challenging hitters with strikes, and the White Sox prefer it to...

Position analysis: Streaky Viciedo steps up
Tribune ReporterThe late Loyd Christopher, a longtime scout who played briefly for the White Sox, told a disappointed group of high school players more than 30 years ago that statistics "don't mean a thing."

Sox position analysis: A.J. not easily replaced

Clutch hitting just one area of Sox improvement for 2013
Tribune reporterCLEVELAND --The lack of clutch hitting provided an obvious reason for the White Sox’s 3-10 slide that transformed a three-game lead with 15 games left to elimination from the American League Central race with two games left. But there were plenty...Tags: Tyler Flowers, Addison Reed, Chicago White Sox, Kevin Youkilis, Jake Peavy

Sox fall 2 games behind Tigers in AL Central
If this was Jake Peavy's final start at U.S. Cellular Field as a member of the White Sox, his teammates didn't present him with any surprises Thursday night. Specifically, an offense that hasn't offered much run support in Peavy's starts continued to...
