Good Guys Talk Back

Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Our Chicago White Sox wrapped up their home games for 2025 with a loss against the Padres.

It sounds like the Sox broadcast team will be back in 2026. How has your fan experience been this season and wha...

Hey Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Our Chicago White Sox are playing very good baseball and have got us saying, 'Hey, These Kids Can Play.' Can the Sox avoid 100 losses? Can they make a twenty game win improvement from last season? Does that put Chris Getz in the executive of the year conversation or Will Venable in manager of the year talk? Colson Montgomery continues to b...

Many players are contributing and Luis Robert, Jr. will continue to be one of those pl...

Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Pat Hester was on assignment this past week and friend of the podcast, Eric Carlson, stepped in to talk all things White Sox and show off his Gene Honda impression. Sox were playing some very good baseball and punched the Cubs in the mouth to start off the three game series but simply could not finish things off on the South Side. The maddening case o...

Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. How about those Chicago White Sox? It was a three game sweep in Pittsburgh and the Sox are flying high.

Sox fans! Our Chicago White Sox were embarrassed this past weekend by the Chicago Cubs. When will the pain stop? When will the Sox be competitive again? It's a sickening feeling to realize the good times might be very far away. We are hanging onto prospects, hope and the feeling that it can't be this way forever.

The Sox bullpen is a mess and promising prospect, Cols...

Hey Sox fans! The first series is in the books and the Chicago White Sox did not embarrass themselves... yet. Sox won big in the opener, then fell to the Angels in the next two games.

Why are there so many Cubs jerseys at a Sox game and when did we...

Sox fans! Welcome back... we are just days away from the start of the 2025 season.

A White Sox world without Reinsdorf is a dream that c...
