Shownotes Transcript

The MLB non-tender deadline has come and gone, with the White Sox non-tendering Carlos Rodón and Nomar Mazara. But other players who were non-tendered by their teams suddenly join the list of free-agent options for the White Sox. Chuck Garfien, Vinnie Duber and Ryan McGuffey discuss the Rodón and Mazara moves and the players the White Sox could possibly pick up, including former Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber. Later in the podcast, the crew discusses the announcement of the White Sox coaching staff and react to quotes from the new staff about their expectations for Tony La Russa and the 2021 White Sox.
