Rundown

[Intro] Look how far the Chicago White Sox have come in the first half of 2026 season. Preseason projections had the team finishing with a 68-94 record. Now, the team is on pace to win 85 games. White Sox manager Will Venable shares what he would like the team to improve upon in the second half.
[5:03] First group to hand out grades is the White Sox offense. A more impressive output considering missing Munetaka Murakami for most of the second quarter.
[9:45] Starting pitching grades are good for the first half, but this unit still need external help to get through the last 81 games.
[16:17] The bullpen has standouts in Grant Taylor, Sean Newcomb, and Bryan Hudson. But how does the crew grade the overall unit?
[24:20] What grade would you give manager Will Venable for the team's first half?
[33:14] How much credit should Chris Getz get for the team's success in the first 81 games?
