*** Official Chicago White Sox 2021 Season Thread ***

Heading into the All-Star break, here are the AL Central Standings for your 2021 Chicago White Sox:




Been a solid year even though the Sox have played with a ton of injuries. Impressive work by the pitching staff thus far. La Russa needs to keep things humming in the second half!

How effectively are MLB teams utilizing depth against high volume of injuries?

No team has been exempt from MLB’s injury woes, but how are those who have been hit hardest coping in deploying their reserves?

Cleveland is still in the red in run differential, but they are a solid club and will remain a threat for the remainder of the year. I see them fighting for a wild card spot.




The disappointing playoffs in 2020 should still keep this club hungry. Need to win the division and see how things shake up. Go White Sox!

Anyone up in Iowa going to the Field of Dreams game?

Gaze at the grandeur! Iowa's Field of Dreams

DYERSVILLE, Iowa -- I’m sitting on the wooden bleachers at the Field of Dreams. The sky is bright blue, a shade I haven’t seen in a while. A busload of middle schoolers are here from Galena, Ill., 40 miles away. They’re laughing their way through a Friday afternoon softball game,

To say this season has been a joy to follow would be an understatement. Looking forward to the 2nd half!

Really excited for this game!

I hope Costner (Ray) and Liotta (Shoeless Joe Jackson) walk out of the cornfield at some point or are a part of this in some way!

Field of Dreams becomes reality for White Sox, Yankees

DYERSVILLE, Iowa — The famous field carved into the corn of Dyersville, Iowa may not be heaven, but for 32 years its beckoned baseball fans to America’s heartland for their own piece of paradise. “…

Four hundred feet to dead center features both bullpens, a nod to the design of old Comiskey Park.

Great write up on current events:

'We know what's going on': Inside the unlikely union of TLR and the White Sox

The White Sox roster is one of the youngest, most vibrant -- and best -- in baseball. Their manager is a 76-year-old traditionalist. But this season, they're making the unusual pairing work.
