South Side Sox, a Chicago White Sox community

Mark Teahen is officially the White Sox 3B for 2010. That doesn't seem like the type of move that will push the Sox to the top of the AL Central heap.

Jim Thome and Jose Contreras became victims of the Sox lackluster play and impending payroll crunch. Thome increases his chances of reaching the World Series, while Contreras will frustrate his third franchise.

The White Sox got Jake Peavy, which is a move that's more about the future than the next two months.

The White Sox acquired Tony Pena from the Arizona Diamonbacks in exchange for Brandon Allen. Pena figures to be Octavio Dotel's successor when he leaves via free agency next year.

The White Sox picked up a quartet of prospects for two pitchers who share half a brain. Film at 11.

Did you know Jermaine Dye is on the trade market? For reals! I read it on the internet.

With their acquisition of two of the six AFL teams, the Peoria Javelinas and Surprise Rafters, the White Sox are the proud owners of 70 new prospects who will never amount to anything.
