Back for my annual punishment…

I’ve been way way in the dark since early last year. Time to get caught up. Do we have a team with guts yet??

Tim in 2024

This is by far the most informed and objective news and analysis of the White Sox out there. Your episode on Tim was very insightful. I took away that Tim was a casualty of the toxic clubhouse rather than a contributor. I think he deserves a chance to redeem himself with this team next year. Given his friendly team option, relatively low trade value, and his willingness to play 2nd, what downside would there be to keeping him around?
