The White Sox are a first place team, but is it really smart for them to go for it all this season? That's a major question we ponder in this week's mailbag.
Chris Sale struck out a career-high 15, Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer and the Chicago White Sox extended their winning streak to six games with a 2-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday.
The White Sox placed right-handed reliever Jesse Crain on the 15-day disabled list Friday and recalled right-hander Dylan Axelrod from Triple-A Charlotte.

It figures that on my first day here at Camelback Ranch, Ozzie Guillen and his sons were the hot topic.
Spring has not been kind to Chris Sale. Perhaps that's not fair. Maybe the weather, workouts, meals, golf and time with his teammates have all been kind; but the starts have not.
When the White Sox traded Sergio Santos to the Blue Jays, they didn't just lose one of their best young pitchers.
Though Reed is the youngest and least experienced of the three, he likely is the leader for the job going into Spring Training.

Consider the White Sox a dangerous dark horse in 2012. To get you ready for the off-season, here are five burning White Sox questions for the winter.

Justin Verlander got his 14th win and Wilson Betemit had a two-out, go-ahead single in the eighth inning Tuesday night as the Detroit Tigers beat the Chicago White Sox 5-4 and increased their lead in the AL Central.
One of the biggest White Sox storylines during the first two weeks of the season was the White Sox bullpen. Today, the bullpen is also a significant storyline, but for different reasons.
The high expectations the White Sox had coming into this season haven't been met, that's no secret at all. But as bad as the team and individual players have been, they can still reach those expectations with good second half.

Adam Dunn's 0-for-4 game, including three strikeouts, in Monday night's loss to the Cubs is something that White Sox fans are getting familiar with.
It's a safe bet to say that, at times, Ozzie Guillen can be a distraction for a team. Whether it's Twitter messages from him son or calling the Minnesota Twins "a bunch of midgets," there's rarely a dull moment. But he also has the unwavering loyalty of his players.

A busy weekend ends with thoughts on Peavy, Zambrano and the Big Ten Championship Game. Also, LeBron James handles a tough question brilliantly.
The Chicago White Sox have won seven of their last 10 games, but still find themselves 10 games back of the Cleveland Indians. But if Chicago wants to contend for the AL Central title, they can't focus on the standings.
The Chicago White Sox have a half-game lead over the Minnesota Twins, but it's not for first place in the division like many expected it would be before the season started.
Paul Konerko homered twice and Mark Buehrle pitched 6 2-3 scoreless innings to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 6-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Monday night.
An important element of Ozzie Guillen's managerial skills can get lost amongst the Tweeting, press conference rants and on-field antics. Despite all of the distractions, Guillen has the loyalty and respect of his players.
