All right, today on the podcast, we're digging into a thorny topic

0:30.6

for many White Sox fans, and that is the play of Yohan Moncada,

0:34.6

the centerpiece of the Chris Sale trade.

0:36.6

He's had an up and down frustrating. First full season with the White Sox, Ryan McGuffie, Vinnie Duber. There's a lot to like, but over two-h-hrund strikeouts, we don't like that. Sox fans are concerned. Guff, are you concerned about Yohan Moncada and his future going forward? Get a quick thought from both of you guys and then we'll dive deep into it a little bit later on. For a guy that's defended him pretty much all of 2018 to answer your question at a very brief form, yes, I'm concerned. Okay. Yeah, I don't think it's easy for Sox fans to say they aren't concerned at this point, right?

1:12.1

I mean, you've got to say that there's a little bit of concern from what you've seen.

1:15.5

I think two things are true.

1:17.0

Number one, the White Sox are correct when they say this is a young player who's got an incredibly high ceiling and who is showing us a lot that we can like.

1:25.3

I think the other thing that's true is that White Sox fans are correct in saying, oh my God, this guy's striking out a lot. He obviously did not live up to their expectations this season. Okay. Coming up on the podcast, we're going to break down Moncada, what kind of player he will be in the future? Will he be a second baseman when all of a sudden done and what he said recently that has me feeling

1:45.9

really good about him in 2019 and beyond we'll get to that and then later i went down this youtube

1:52.8

black hole and it blew my white socks mind it's the ninth inning of a game broadcast

1:59.6

august 7th 1974 you know bill melton alwayston always talks about Nolan Ryan back in the day when he used to throw gas like 200 miles an hour. Well, it was 100. It looks like it's 200 miles an hour. So I found this video of Nolan Ryan thrown almost a no-hitter against the White Sox at Comiskey Park. There's Dick Allen, Bill Melton, and Astroof Infield at

2:18.0

Kamisky Park. Harry Carey on the call. We clipped off the audio. All of us have seen it.

2:23.7

I'm not sure we can match the video that's out there, but we're going to talk about this incredible

2:28.2

White Sox buried treasure on the podcast. But first, our conversation about Yoan Moncada, what gives,

2:36.5

what's going to happen to him in the future. Should we be concerned, is he just a young

2:42.0

budding prospect about to be an all-star? That and more on the White Sox Talk podcast. Here we go.

2:56.2

All right, guys, let's first start with some Yohan Mankata perspective.
