Should White Sox Fans Hit Panic Button?

00:00:00

Last week, White Sox fans experienced every emotion imaginable. As the team struggles through a disappointing season marred by injuries, suspensions, and below .500 baseball, White Sox owners fired two longtime executives and are now weighing their options for when the team’s stadium lease ends, including leaving the South Side or even a potential sale to Nashville. So what the hell is going on with the White Sox? Joining host Jacoby Cochran with answers is Herb Lawrence with CHGO’s White Sox podcast.
