April shared insight on the pitching, and how this series could be interesting with the Mets as spoilers. April also talked about her fears and the keys to win for the Mets before getting into how this has been a weird season, especially with a looming season stoppage in 2027.

Sean Anderson — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 21:37:57 GMT

White Sox’s Jose Urquidy OUTPITCHES Clay Holmes and possibly REDEFINES bad trade deadline narrative

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 14:30:00 GMT

Chicago White Sox’s bargain pickup Jose Urquidy outduels Clay Holmes at Wrigley Field, raising the question: Did the club’s modest trade deadline moves actually pay off? Todd Welter spotlights Urquidy’s electric six-inning, eight-strikeout performance and examines whether he can anchor the rotation down the stretch as the Sox chase a division title. With Davis Martin struggling and Noah Schultz sidelined, is Urquidy the unexpected answer Chicago needs?

Welter also breaks down the White Sox’s shaky challenge process, with Sam Antonacci’s costly early-inning pitch challenges coming under fire. Key moments from the heated White Sox-Cubs rivalry get re-examined, including the impact of the “Manfred runner,” defensive gems by Braden Montgomery and Antonacci, and the playoff implications of holding off the Twins, Tigers, and Guardians. Can Chicago sustain this momentum, or will roster and strategy questions haunt their postseason hopes?
