This edition of the mothership podcast features Dante Jones and Hannah Filippo, who join Brett Ballantini to discuss the encroaching and unprecedented third straight 100-loss season for the White Sox. 

Believe it or not, some positives were discussed:

  • Gut check! We all weigh in on how the season has transpired and the (brief) spike in performance in the second half; Dante's glass is half-full, Hannah has seen the floor and it's ugly
  • On that note, this one's a freebie, White Sox Marketing Dept.: Chicago White Sox 2026: Everybody Has Shown Their Floor
  • Concerns: No true reinforcements coming from Charlotte next year, with Hannah noting the lack of arms and Brett exposing the fact that there are ZERO bats on the cusp. Dante? He just wants Andrew Benintendi off of his team
  • Brett reveals just how bad the past three seasons have been, against the backdrop of all of major league history
  • Concerns heading into 2026
  • A brief digression into hate for the Crosstown team and an examination of rookies flying away from the team while in a playoff positioning fight
  • Colson Montgomery crashed the majors prematurely, and that gamble paid off. Will that encourage the White Sox to be risky in moving players up ... and is that a good or bad thing?
  • Does the flat tire at the very end of this season stain our outlook for 2026?
  • Early, early, early predictions on the 2026 win total
