About this episode
This episode is presented by Ankin Law - Injury Law Made Personal. Rundown [Intro] The Chicago White Sox added Tanner McDougal and Duncan Davitt to their 40-man roster this week, and then made two additional trades. Audio from White Sox GM Chris Getz explaining the rationale of his decision-making, and Tanner McDougal expressing his excitement in being one step closer to accomplishing his dream. [12:00] James Fegan and Jim Margalus join the show to discuss if there were any surprises with the 40-man decision-making [16:43] First trade: White Sox acquiring LHP Chris Murphy - does he replace Fraser Ellard? [18:52] Speaking of Ellard's retirement, where does that sudden decision rank among unexpected White Sox retirements? [24:07] Second trade: White Sox dealing Yoendrys Gomez and Steven Wilson to Tampa for Everson Pereira and Tanner Murray. With the White Sox dealing with a lack of pitching depth, why did they deal from that depth? Also, does Pereira have the inside track in making the White Sox 26-man roster? [33:37] Justin Ishbia meets the Pope, but also speaks on record for the first time as the White Sox upcoming "Steward". [44:55] MLB's new TV deal with NBC, ESPN, and Netflix sure makes it seem like they can't afford to miss any regular season games with a lockout in 2027. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
