  • Other than media attention, it feels like every baseball fan is adopting us as their #2 team, or most wanted team to win this year. So many good stories its hard not to be a fan.

  • These are always the most fun teams to watch, and it’s true in every sport. It’s usually only a few ingredients needed: Team has been bad the last few seasons Get a group of prospects playing togethe

Projected arb figures from MLBTraderumors. This is a really young and cheap team. Sorta thing you dream about building in OOTP. Things can change, but man if we add some payroll..

Why you should root for them: This year's White Sox are easily the most root-worthy team in the playoffs. You can scoff at the AL's mediocrity, but when it comes to Chicago, you have to remember that entering this season, even mediocrity felt like a long way away.

The 2023 Orioles had a bigger two-year leap than the White Sox, going from 52 wins to 101. But before that, you have to go back to the 1930s to find anything similar. But it's more than the rags-to-riches angle. The White Sox are a young, power-hitting, selfless group that is a gas to watch. -- Doolittle espn.com

I have it on good authority that a player like Vasil was supposed to have STFU and go away, right?

wasn't there an extensive survey done that suggested income levels for the two fanbases in Chicago were virtually inseparable...that Blue collar local neigborhood vs. finance/VC bros (Northside and NW suburbs) was an oversimplified misnomer?

Yes. It was in Crains and it showed that the economic profile of a Sox and Cubs fan is virtually identical.

Even the media outside of a few curmudgeons likes the Sox.

Ratings on the Chicago Sports Network “more than doubled this season to an average of 60,400 viewers per game.” Going into the season, the White Sox had a “long list of traditional giveaways lined up, including bobbleheads, T-shirts and more.” Boyer said that the promotion to honor Pope Leo XIV was “executed and ramped up on the fly.” He added that the outlay for the $5 hats “ran $200,000, making it the most expensive promotional gamble of the season,” but it “paid off big for the team.” Boyer said that as the Sox advance in the playoffs, the team is “planning to promote a home fan apparel ‘blackout’ -- with everybody showing their colors to make Rate Field an ‘intimidating place’ for the visiting team” (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 9/30
