USA Today's Bob Nightengale was on local sports talk radio station, 670 the Score, and discussed local billionaire Justin Ishbia's reportedly increasing his minority stake in the Chicago White Sox with the hope of eventually taking control of the franchise from current managing owner Jerry Reinsdorf. Nightengale went over how it likely will be a while before that happens.
Host Todd Welter discusses how that is just another frustration to have Reinsdorf and why he should just sell the team based on past comments regarding his dislike for certain parts of owning a baseball team.
Then Todd discusses general manager Chris Getz making a comment that he does not see any outfield help in the free agent despite that group getting ravaged by injuries. Todd goes over how that is organizational negligence.
Finally, it is Wayback Wednesday where Todd sort of does a retro segment by going over some past Sox like Eloy Jimenez, Yoan Moncada, and Tim Anderson struggling in spring training with their new teams while Jake Burger is thriving.
