That's wintrust.com slash socks. We're here every Tuesday or as White Sox news breaks,

listen and subscribe for all things, White Sox. Today in the podcast, we're going to look into

the White Sox future and give you a roadmap for the White Sox rebuild. So after trading away,

sale, Eden, Kintana, Frazier, Melke, Robertson, et cetera. The Sox have one of the best

farm systems, if not the best farm system in baseball.

But now what, Dan Hayes? Now what, Ryan McGuffey? When will these new players start coming to the

big leagues? When will the White Sox start spending money on free agents? Who are they going to target?

Who could they get? And what would the lineup look like for the White Sox in 2020? And full

disclosure, who came up with this idea? Not me, not Hayes, not Guff. Who was it? Our friend Josh

Kay on Twitter. The magical world of Twitter. This is a great idea. I can't take credit for it.

But Josh Kay, thank you so much.

It proves the people that we listen to you. Yes. If you have an idea, let's do it. Again, all ideas that don't involve severed heads. There's a severed head. It's a bad idea. Please don't talk to us. Okay. So here's what we're going to do. We're going to start with what you can expect as a

White Sox fan to see for the rest of this season, and then we're going to cover 2018, 2019, and finally

2020. And while the first part of the rebuild is probably over, talking about the Sox train away

their top assets for prospects, the final part is going to be really interesting. We're talking about them

signing free agents. And this was something Rick Hahn and company clearly saw coming down the road

because the free agent classes in 2019 and 20 are exceptional, especially 2019. Actually, I think 20

might be better than 19. We'll talk about that. Huge names all over the diamond. And you're not going to believe how much the White Sox have on the payroll in those years.

Not including arbitration. Let's see, 2019, they've got 2.65 million, right?

That's unbelievable. Right. Wait, wait. Are we accounting your salary in there, too?
