The White Sox lost two of three to the Cubs over the weekend. After winning the series opener Friday, 12-5, the Sox stumbled Saturday and Sunday to rack up an AL-leading 67th and 68th losses of the campaign. They trail the Tigers by 22.5 games in the American League Central.

Ben Brown pitched five effective innings, Pete Crow-Armstrong drove in two runs and the Chicago Cubs topped the Chicago White Sox 5-4 on Sunday. Nico Hoerner added two hits and a key defensive play as the Cubs won the rubber game in the weekend set. The North Siders went 5-1 in the season series against the South Siders.

Last season, when the Chicago White Sox were on track to break a record for being the worst team in MLB history, Luis Robert Jr trade rumors suggested a big shakeup was coming. Yet, despite plenty of interest, the White Sox decided to hang onto their All-Star centerfielder.

Cubs left-hander Shota Imanaga turned to look over his left shoulder at the video board showing the replay of the home run he just had given up in the fourth inning Friday. In a game the Cubs would go on to lose 12-5 to the White Sox, it was the third homer Imanaga had yielded, all on fastballs that caught too much of the strike zone.

After missing the last two games with adductor soreness, Luis Robert Jr. will serve as the White Sox designated hitter Sunday against the Chicago Cubs.

On the surface, this makes some sense. Both Robert and Mark Vientos have shown great promise in the past, but have both struggled mightily this season. However, a deeper look would suggest that the ask for Vientos in a Robert trade is too steep of a price for the Mets to pay.

MLB clubs are "all over" the Chicago White Sox about a potential trade for rookie right-hander Grant Taylor, a team source told The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.

Along with its 20-player draft class, the White Sox signed three undrafted free agents out of college: Jackson Nove, James Taussig and Steven Lancia.
