Episode Notes

The White Sox likely will be quiet at the upcoming Winter Meetings. However, there is a path they could shock the baseball world by trading young catchers Edgar Quero or Kyle Teel.

Host Todd Welter explores the risks and rewards of potentially trading Edgar Quero or Kyle Teel, breaks down Chicago’s bullpen challenges, and spotlights possible low-risk, high-upside additions like Cooper Criswell.
