Chicago White Sox need a superstar hitter to compete

Locked On White Sox - Daily Podcast On The Chicago White Sox

Can the Chicago White Sox turn their fortunes around with a superstar hitter? With a staggering 121 losses, the White Sox's struggles in 2024 highlight a glaring need for offensive firepower. Luis Robert Jr. struggled so badly that it is hard to consider him a superstar player anymore.

The team cycled through a lot of players and got no glimmer of hope that they had a stud in their lineup.

There are some options in the farm system, but not enough. That is why the Sox might have to trade ace pitcher Garrett Crochet.

This episode also explores the White Sox's young pitching depth being a glimmer of hope, but the Sox cannot win many games if they cannot score runs.

Host Todd Welter then discusses some of the random players who were a part of the 63 players used this season.

He also discusses the bullpen's inability to protect leads and the team's dismal record when trailing late in games. Join Todd for an engaging discussion on the Chicago White Sox's path to success and the pivotal changes needed to transform their lineup.
