The A's are in Chicago to face off against the White Sox in a battle between two teams trying to find something to feel good about. In this Locked On crossover, we team up with Todd Welter of Locked On White Sox to preview the upcoming three-game set between the struggling squads. We break down which team is in worse shape right now, why both fanbases are feeling a little hopeless (and maybe a little angry), and which players still give us a reason to tune in every night. There's a lot of pain here—but also a little pride. This one’s for the die-hards still showing up.
We also get into the potential silver linings for each franchise: for the A's, a wave of young talent and sneaky-competitive energy; for the Sox, a few veterans looking to rediscover their form and some flashes of life from the farm system. Can either team get on track this week? Is this a "get right" series or a rock bottom showdown? Either way, someone’s gotta win. Maybe.
