Episode Notes
Rundown
- [Intro] The Chicago White Sox are 14-17 after sweeping the Los Angeles Angels. But they went May only 1.5 games back of Cleveland and Detroit for first place in the AL Central. They are 13-12 in their last 25 games. So how is the clubhouse feeling about this stretch? Do the White Sox believe they can stick around longer than expected?
- [17:33] Colson Montgomery ranks in the top three of many categories for American League shortstops. Should we pay him more attention to how he's been starting in 2026?
- [31:54] Davis Martin is performing like a Top 10 pitcher in MLB. Is he buying into his start in what could be his breakout season?
- [39:48] Drew Romo hit two home runs in his last game. Should the White Sox split up 50/50 playing time between Romo and Edgar Quero?
- [44:03] Braden Montgomery and Caleb Bonemer are raking to start 2026. Is a promotion incoming for both?
- [55:29] Series preview against San Diego Padres. If Anthony Kay struggles again, is it time to find another starting pitcher?
