Summary

White Sox broadcaster Steve Stone joins Chuck Garfien on The White Sox Talk Podcast to break down the state of the team and where things go from here. Stone shares his perspective on the rookie surge led by Colson Montgomery, Edgar Quero, and Kyle Teel, and why the White Sox finally have the offensive foundation they’ve been missing. He explains how a strong bullpen could quickly turn close losses into wins, what to do with Luis Robert Jr. this offseason, and the type of free agent he’d like to see added to the roster. Plus, Stone talks MLB expansion and why Orlando could be the league’s next big market.
