  • Wins and Losses Won’t Matter in 2026, But The White Sox Should CRUSH Low Win Projections
    2026/01/10

    Chicago White Sox fans, is blowing past Vegas’ win projection the biggest sign of a successful rebuild? Host Todd Welter explains that while internal improvement of the young core is the biggest goal of 2026, easily blowing past the low win over/under would be a nice of progress for the rebuild.

    Welter explores why internal improvement—like Colson Montgomery becoming a star and Murakami launching 30+ homers—trumps the win column for 2026. With key names such as Kyle Teel, Edgar Quero, Chase Meidroth, and Shane Smith highlighted for their development potential, the show unpacks how incremental wins, major prospect debuts, and bounce-back performances (Luis Robert Jr. included) could shape the team’s long-term contention window.

    The episode breaks down recent roster rumblings, including the Drew Romo waiver claim and what it means for Korey Lee’s White Sox future. Fan poll results reveal a buzz around Braden Montgomery’s anticipated debut and ongoing debates over adding pitching versus trusting young talent. Will the South Siders’ offseason moves translate into meaningful improvement—or signal more tough seasons ahead

    [00:00:03] Todd Welter discusses the importance of internal player development over win totals for the upcoming White Sox season, why Vegas has the over/under so low, and what benchmarks would signal genuine progress in the rebuild. Includes his perspective on what really matters in 2026 and setting expectations for fans.

    11:10 – Catcher Moves & Korey Lee’s Future
    [00:11:10] Todd Welter breaks down a recent minor transaction at catcher (claiming Drew Romo), what it means for Korey Lee’s status with the club, and the broader implications for roster construction and positional depth moving into 2026.

    20:04 – Fan Polls: Prospects & Offseason Priorities
    [00:20:04] Todd Welter recaps fan poll results on which prospects excite fans most for a 2026 debut (highlighting Braden Montgomery), and analyzes poll feedback on which moves—starting pitching, relievers, right field—should be prioritized before Opening Day.

  • 4 hunches on why the Chicago White Sox failed to LAND Japanese star pitcher Tatsuya Imai
    2026/01/02

    The Chicago White Sox miss out on Tatsuya Imai as the Houston Astros land the Japanese pitching star—was it ownership penny-pinching or Scott Boras's influence?

    The Imai sweepstakes spotlight payroll limitations under Jerry Reinsdorf, agent dynamics, and the challenge of luring elite talent to the South Side.

Debates over retaining Jordan Leasure heat up, as advanced stats signal a potential closer breakout. Fan poll results reveal hope and frustration—will the White Sox ever operate like a big-market club, or is cautious optimism all fans can rely on?
