Show Notes
Chuck Garfien is joined by MLB.com’s White Sox beat writer Scott Merkin for a deep dive into the biggest storylines of the Sox offseason. Chuck puts Scott on the spot with 10 Burning Questions—from what the White Sox might do at the Winter Meetings to who will be playing first base, third base, and right field on Opening Day 2026. They discuss potential additions to the rotation, whether the Sox will pursue a closer, which players could be on the trade block, and if Luis Robert Jr. is on the move, who would take his spot in center field. Chuck and Scott also look at how the new pitching and hitting coaches could shape the team’s future and evaluate the chances the Sox can push toward a .500 season in 2026.
