White Sox roster holes that need patching Sep 13, 2019

Show notes

Recorded 9/12/2019
Despite Tim Anderson, Yoan Moncada, Jose Abreu, and Eloy Jimenez hitting, the White Sox continue to lose. That's because James McCann and Leury Garcia have struggled greatly since the All-Star Break, so much that the White Sox should consider other possible starters for 2020. Josh and Jim share ideas on who a couple of targets that would be great fits if the money will truly be spent.
Plus, the transformation of Jorge Soler, and a preview of the upcoming series in Seattle.
