David Schuster

I have been covering the local sports scene for the last 30 years and in that time have seen more games and events then anybody. I’ve been privileged to have covered 9 local championships (6 by the Bulls, and one each by the Bears, White Sox & Blackhawks). I have also covered 3 no hitters and one perfect game and had the honor of covering the best basketball player ever on a daily basis. Not only do I love reporting on sports but I equally enjoy participating (Basketball, Baseball, Golf, Tennis…etc.) You name it and I love it. I’m a huge movie goer who also likes to travel and I own a piece of a local minor league baseball team as well as a piece of a local restaurant.

Derrick Rose

Schuster: Time Is Running Out For Rose’s Return

If I had a nickel for every time we have asked Tom Thibodeau when Derrick Rose is coming back, I would have a whole lot of nickels (which still doesn’t amount to much).

CBS Chicago–2013/03/20

Matt Thornton

Schuster: Thornton Calls MRI ‘Over-The-Top Precautionary’

A few days ago the veteran left-hander experienced a twinge of discomfort in his throwing elbow during a bullpen session and immediately was checked out by medical personnel.

Schuster: Hector Santiago Playing An Important Role In 2013

Talk about a swing man on your pitching staff. That’s exactly the role that Hector Santiago will fill on this year’s White Sox team.

Schuster: Soriano Has No Regrets Staying With Cubs

The Cubs left-fielder had medical reasons for turning down a trade to San Francisco last year.

Tom Ricketts

Schuster: Ricketts Silent On Wrigley Details

ubs owner Tom Ricketts would make an excellent politician because he can talk a long time without saying much. That was the case Sunday when Ricketts met the media and pretty much brushed away all questions regarding a deal with both the city and the neighborhood involving Wrigley Field.

Schuster: Konerko Pondering Future

Paul Konerko is the last of the Mohicans, meaning he’s the final member of the 2005 World Series championship team that is still playing for the White Sox.

Brent Lillibridge

Schuster: Lillibridge Has A Good Shot To Make Cubs’ Major League Roster

Brent Lillibridge only signed a minor league deal with the Cubs, but he has a very good chance of making the Major League roster.

Schuster: Not Surprised Ventura Turned Down Extension

The news that Robin Ventura had turned down a one-year contract extension really didn’t surprise insiders.

Schuster: Rose Interview Insulted Local Reporters

Say what you want about Tuesday’s story about Derrick Rose potentially not playing this season (and I don’t believe that for a moment) but the part that upset me is that Rose granted an interview to a reporter from the national media.

Schuster: Bullpen Will Keep White Sox In Contention

There’s an adage in baseball that you’re only as good as your bullpen. If that’s the case, then the White Sox have a chance to prove a lot of the so called experts wrong.

John Danks

Schuster: White Sox Respond To Sub-.500 Prediction

Since its inception, the publication Baseball Prospectus seems to pick the White Sox to finish at the bottom of the standings each season.

Rudy Jaramillo

Schuster: The Old Difference Of Philosophy Reasoning For A Firing

If you didn’t know any better, you would have thought you were at Rudy Jaramillo’s press conference to announce a contract extension instead of his firing. The way Cubs president Theo Epstein was gushing about Jaramillo, you had to remind yourself what was really going on.
