Chicago White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko will undergo offseason surgery to remove a floating bone fragment from his left hand, reports Bruce Levine of ESPNChicago.com: "It is something I need to take care of," Konerko said. "I don't feel it has impacted anything I've done this year. It is just time to get it out of the way." The procedure will remove the particle, which has been floating between his hand and left wrist area, according to Levine.  Konerko said he’s had the fragment in his hand since 2009.  The recovery time for the procedure is estimated to be four to six weeks, meaning the slugger will be able to make a full recovery prior to next spring training. Konerko has turned in another productive season for the White Sox, though his numbers dropped off a bit since his hot start.  After hitting a ridiculous .381/.455/.642 through the month of May, the 36-year-old is now sitting with a still impressive line of ...

End of Season Post-Mortem: Chicago White Sox

Via The Outside Corner  |  October 02, 2012
They scraped, and they clawed, and they battled, but at the end of the day, the Chicago White Sox fell short in their bid to win the AL Central, even after an 11-0 thrashing of the Indians on Monday night. A 2-10 stretch prior to that win did them in, and I bet a lot of White Sox fans, players, and other personnel are wondering what could have happened if some of that offense from...

White Sox fail to draw two million fans for first time since 2004

Via Tireball.com  |  September 30, 2012
The declining attendance at US Cellular Field has reached a new low. For the first time since 2004 the Chicago White Sox had less then two million fans pass though the turnstiles. With an average home attendance of 24,666 the White Sox ranked 24th in all of baseball. The White Sox had 16 crowds of 30,000-plus fans and 14 with less than 20,000. “We’re happy they came out,” White...

White Sox 3 out with 3 to play

Via AP on Fox  |  September 30, 2012
Their clubhouse strewn with boxes, their season on the brink of ending after a 10th loss in 12 games, the Chicago White Sox headed out Sunday on their final road trip. They had hoped the three games in Cleveland would be a time for celebration instead of reflecting on what went so wrong. Now they need a lot of help and a three-game winning streak. ''Obviously we're...

Blowout win is too little, too late for White Sox

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  October 02, 2012
The hope for the Chicago White Sox players was they wouldn't have to start talking about tough decisions the organization has to make this winter or the current roster being broken up until late October -- not on the first night of the month. However, even though the Sox finally won, pounding the Cleveland Indians 11-0, they were eliminated from playoff contention when the...

Ventura plans on managing through his contract

Via Fox Sports  |  September 30, 2012
Robin Ventura made it clear Sunday: The first-year manager plans on being around for the remaining two years on his contract with the Chicago White Sox. He raised a few eyebrows Saturday when asked if he could ever see himself managing as long as a Walter Alston or Tommy Lasorda. Ventura said he couldn't and was just hoping to get through this season. He clarified his answer...

White Sox 11, Indians 0

Via AP on Fox  |  October 01, 2012
Rookie Hector Santiago allowed just one hit in seven shutout innings as the Chicago White Sox kept their slim playoff hopes alive - for the moment - with an 11-0 win over the Cleveland Indians on Monday night. Santiago (4-1), who began the season as Chicago's closer, struck out a season-high 10. The Indians' only hit off the left-hander was Shin-Soo Choo's two-out single...

Pitchers’ Duel Crumbles Into Chicago Slugfest

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  October 02, 2012
I’ve had the pleasure 1 of recapping several of Corey Kluber’s starts this season. For nearly six innings tonight, it was his best start of the season by far as he held the potent White Sox offense in check. But, those pesky pale hosers broke through with two outs in the sixth and struck for four runs. The Tribe had no answer for that, mustering just two hits of their own, as...

Box Score: White Sox 11, Indians 0

Via Waiting For Next Year  |  October 02, 2012
While the White Sox claimed a big victory today, the Indians already had knocked Chicago out of playoff contention last week. Detroit’s Monday night victory clinched the AL Central for the Tigers, accomplishing an impressive September comeback to win the worst division in baseball. And, oh yeah, the Indians lost badly on Monday. They managed just two hits and one walk while striking...

Series Preview: White Sox at Indians 10/1-3

Via Burning River Baseball  |  October 01, 2012
The White Sox have completely collapsed, a huge part of which was the Indians last series win over Chicago. Unless both Cleveland and Detroit get swept this week, the Sox are officially out of the playoffs in 2012.  The Indians seem to  have a newfound motivation with the introduction of Sandy Alomar, Jr. as manager. This team, which has struggled all season scoring runs, has...

The Cleveland Indians were shut out by the Chicago White Sox 11-0 in a game that would see the Indians Bull pen suffer in. The Tribe started Corey Kluber who would pitch for 5-2/3′s giving up 5 hits and 4 runs and he struck out 6 hitters. The Cleveland Indians offense was a non-factor, they couldn’t score even one run to stop the shut out.The Indians had a scary moments in the...

Despite facing a virtually insurmountable deficit in the AL Central race, the Chicago White Sox remain determined.

Series recap: Rays take three of four from the White Sox

Via The Bay Cave  |  October 01, 2012
The Rays played playoff caliber baseball in Chicago to take the series from the White Sox. They closed out the series in Cy Young type fashion.  Tampa Bay showed some offense over the series as they outscored Chicago 20-11 with half of those runs coming from Saturday’s 10-4 win. But David Price’s performance once again was the story of a series. Price earned his 20th win of...
