Episode description

Rundown

  • [Intro] At this pace, Chris Getz could churn out half the 26-man roster we saw late in 2024. Is this amount of roster churn a good thing?
  • [6:00] Hello, Martin Perez. What the White Sox are hoping to get out of Perez, how long he figures to stay, and why Josh likes this signing
  • [17:36] Hello, Josh Rojas. Why does this signing feel like Nicky Lopez 2.0? Is Rojas the clubhouse leader to be the starting third baseman in 2025?
  • [29:41] Hello, Tyler Gilbert. Why are the White Sox trading young relievers for older relievers?
  • [39:24] Hello, Bobby Dalbec. What's the hope by signing Dalbec to a minor league contract? Is Dalbec a better backup option to Andrew Vaughn than Tim Elko?
  • [45:50] What's next for the White Sox this offseason? Could finding a cheap shortstop be Getz's next signing?
  • [52:14] Josh's projected 26-man roster payroll presently is below $65 million
