Mailbag Friday: Should the Chicago White Sox be buyers, sellers or stand pat when the trade deadline arrives? The White Sox (32-44) had an off day on Thursday so it was a good time to answer listener feedback regarding the state of the Sox. They are six games back in a very weak division and could probably stand pat and make a run at a Central title. Will they be buyers and try top acquire big league talent to win the division and beyond? Maybe the White Sox come to the realization that they are just not that good, this is not their year once again and it's best to get something for the players that will most likely walk. The Sox get back into action on Friday as they start a three game series against the Boston Red Sox with Lucas Giolito on the mound.
