Show Notes

Mark Liptak sat down with Brett Ballantini to talk about where the White Sox stand, how little will change in the near term, and whether there is a historical precedent for the 2023 team.

  • Coming soon, history podcasts!
  • The pair discuss the incredible dysfunction inside the White Sox clubhouse and in the organization at large — and how unlikely things are to change as long as Jerry Reinsdorf owns the team
  • While eminently mockable, there is something to a “Cardinal Way” or “Dodgers Way” approach, something the White Sox don’t have, and haven’t for 60 or 70 years
  • The down side of the WBC, manifested in Yoán Moncada
  • Rick Hahn committed a cardinal sin by questioning the tone and optimism of his fan base
