Justin Ishbia's White Sox involvement could mean a new ballpark is on the horizon or something more

More details have emerged regarding the report of Justin Ishbia abandoning his pursuit of buying the Minnesota Twins with the intention to increase his minority stake in the Chicago White Sox. A couple reports mention that Ishbia's involvement could help the team provide more private money toward building a new ballpark on the vacant land known as the 78. If that happens, the state of Illinois likely would be willing to provide some public funds. The news could also mean Ishbia still eventually becomes the team's next owner just not right now.

Then the White Sox got crushed in the third spring training game by the Texas Rangers. A lot of the terrible trends from last season have already emerged in the first three games.

Finally, manager Will Venable has stated Miguel Vargas is the team's primary third baseman. Host Todd Welter discusses if that is a good idea to already declare that position battle over.
