Chuck Garfine coming to you from Guaranteed Rage Field with Ryan McGuffie and Vinnie Dober.

And the topic, the main topic today is this.

Is the worst part of the White Sox rebuild behind us? Before we get to that, though, lots of news here. Lots of news. I don't even know where to begin. Let's start with Avi Garcia starting his rehab assignment on Tuesday, thoughts, feelings, emotions. About time. Yeah, he's been on the shelf for some time. I didn't know, I didn't know if we were ever going to see Avi Garcia back in a ball game

the way things were going.

But yeah, he's coming back.

Probably going to need to spend a little bit of time down at Charlotte after missing almost two months here. But hey, good to see him back on the field. I saw him in Boston over the weekend with Alan Thomas, and it looked, they kind of had that look.

It was almost like a confirmation that he was clearing that final hurdle.

Yep. with Alan Thomas and it looked, they kind of had that look, it was almost like a confirmation

that he was clearing that final hurdle. Yeah. So I'm not real surprised by this news. It's

going to be a while though. All right. You guys out there have been asking me on Twitter and just in person a million times,

where's Alec Hanson? What is going on with Alec Hansen? Well, he will start this weekend for Birmingham. Here's a guy a lot of us have been so interested in wanting to watch pitch, so it's finally coming. He had a forearm issue, and they had to wait for the pain to go away. Then he'd basically start spring train all over again. What did we say? After Rick was done, after the two Rick's were done on the dugout, I looked at you and I said, hey, it's official.

Yeah, it's about time, you know what I mean? Yeah, Alic Hansen. Like the rebuild, it's like, it's back on.
