Ep. 216 - New Season, Same Old White Sox

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/04/17

Hey Sox fans, welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Nick and Pat recap the week that was for our Chicago White Sox. The Sox are still searching for their first series win after losing 2 of 3 to the Minnesota Twins and then later on to the Baltimore Orioles. Sox defense and pitching have been problematic to say the least. Lots of walks being issued by pitching, especially out of the bullpen. More injuries to report as Yoan Moncada and Hanser Alberto head to the ten day injured list. Jake Burger

2023/04/10

Hey Sox fans. Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Nick and Pat chop up the week that was for our White Sox and look ahead to the big series against the first place Minnesota Twins. Through the first ten games of the season, the Sox have not won back-to-back games and they have not won a series. Tough outing by Lance Lynn and Giolito this past week. Michael Kopech had a horrible Home Opener but bounced back nicely against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Easter. Sox offense has been tops in several AL

Ep. 214 - Space City to The Second City

2023/04/03

Hey Sox fans! Welcome back, Nick and Pat recap the week that was for our Chicago White Sox. Series split with the defending champs, the Houston Astros kind of felt like a series win in a weird way. Dylan Cease was magnificent on Opening Day. Lynn, Giolito and Clevinger all held their own but failed to get through the 6th. Sox bullpen was shaky for most of the series, blowing a 3-0 lead in Game 2 of the series. Sox racked up a lot of hits but were terrible at converting with runners in scoring

Ep. 213 - Goodbye Leury, Hello 2023 season

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/03/27

Hey Sox fans, welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. The legend, Leury Garcia, did not make the Opening Day roster for the first time since he came to the Sox from the Rangers back in the summer of 2013. So who's in and who's out? Hanser Alberto, Gavin Sheets, Seby Zavala and Romy Gonzalez seem to be the guys off the bench. Gregory Santos might be the surprise arm in the bullpen after Nick Avila and Bryan Shaw were denied spots. The Sox have just two more Spring Training games before a day

Ep. 212 - Who's in and Who's out?

2023/03/20

Hey Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. With Spring Training starting to wind down, Sox fans are hoping for continued health. White Sox starting pitchers continue to fine tune their comfort with the pitch clock as well as work some things out of their arsenal. Oscar Colas continues to mash the baseball as his first big league banner hangs along 35th street. Utility and reserve spots are a precious few. Seby Zavala and Gavin Sheets are locks but what about Billy Hamilton, Hanser Alberto,

Hey Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Nick and Pat discuss the week that was for our Chicago White Sox. Michael Kopech's first spring outing, Giolito's appreciation of the pitch clock and Oscar Colas adds a pair of home runs to his spring resume. Leury Garcia has had a rough spring defensively but he is not the only one. Is Garcia a lock to make this roster? Speaking of fringe players, Jake Burger continues to smash the baseball. He is tied for the league lead this spring with 4 home

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/03/07

Hey Sox fans! Nick and Pat are back, talking all things Chicago White Sox. Nick just returned from Glendale, AZ and reports on action from White Sox camp. Oscar Colas, Andrew Vaughn, Yasmani Grandal and Elvis Andrus have gotten off to a good start offensively. Grandal looks to have his legs under him and the bat is definitely producing some pop. Colas looks to be the clear front runner for the starting right field position. Pedro Grifol is running his first camp as big league manager and creating a

Ep. 209 - Still Calling It Comiskey

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/02/27

Hey Sox fans! Welcome to a very special episode as we are joined by the producer and director of the Last Comiskey documentary, Matt Flesch. Matt provides insight into what we can expect from Part 2 of the documentary, which is set to drop on three consecutive Thursdays: March 2nd, 9th and 16th. So many players from that 1990 Chicago White Sox team are featured as they share their memories of the last year of Comiskey Park and the battle with the Oakland Athletics.

Ep. 208 - Elvis!: The 2023 Tour

2023/02/20

Hey Sox fans! Welcome to Ep. 208. The White Sox found a second baseman and it's none other than Elvis Andrus. Elvis returns to the Southside on a reported one year, $3 million dollar deal. Now what happens to Lenyn Sosa and Romy Gonzalez? Spring Training is underway and the first game is Feb. 25th. Lots of video coming out of Camelback Ranch of pitchers and position players back in action. Lucas Giolito has slimmed down, Yoan Moncada feels like he's in great shape, Luis Robert, Jr. is getting pumped

Ep. 207 - Storylines and Suntans

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/02/14

Hey Sox fans! Our Chicago White Sox are just days away from their first full squad workout in Glendale, Arizona. There are no shortage of interesting storylines as Spring Training gets underway. How will Pedro Grifol set the tone and what kind of culture is he looking to create? Who will step up to a leadership role now that Abreu is gone? What will the bullpen look like and who will be the man in the 9th inning? How will the new rules affect the White Sox? Can Giolito bounce back and can Kopech

Ep. 206 - Being Open-Minded

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/02/06

Hey Sox fans! The Chicago White Sox made a trade but it probably will not excite you to buy any additional tickets for this upcoming season. The White Sox have had a rough off-season but does it deserve an 'F'? Fan Duel has put the projected win total for the Sox this season at 83.5 wins. Too low? Too high? Removing TLR and adding Benintendi while having Jimenez focus solely on DH should add more than a few wins to last year's total of 81. But, what will the Sox be losing without Abreu and Cueto

Ep. 205 - What a Tenure for Clevinger

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/01/30

Hey Sox fans! Mike Clevinger is being investigated for domestic violence and child abuse. White Sox were quick to sign Clevinger at the beginning of the off-season and there is a very real possibility that he might never throw a pitch in a White Sox uniform. Eloy Jimenez does not want to be just a DH... he wants to play right field. That might be a problem because of his inability to stay healthy when playing the outfield. Good news: Jason Benetti and Steve Stone will be back in the broadcast booth

2023/01/23

Hey Sox fans! Welcome back to a very fan-centric Chicago White Sox podcast. Minnesota Twins star, Luis Arraez, has been traded to the Miami Marlins. Is it addition by subtraction for the Chicago White Sox? Jon Morosi of MLB Network made some bold predictions recently and took the White Sox to win the AL Central this season. Morosi seems to be following the "Just Stay Healthy" mentality that the Sox front office has employed. What are the oddsmakers saying about the chances for the White Sox to win

Ep. 203 - Feeling Incomplete but Completely Excited

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/01/16

Hey Sox fans! We are one month away from pitchers and catchers reporting to Camel Back Ranch in Glendale, Arizona for the start of Spring Training. The Sox still have several question marks that fans would love for the team to address, namely: second base and right field. On paper, this White Sox team can compete in the AL Central but there seems to be an incomplete feeling as we approach Spring Training. The Sox made some international signings and avoided going to arbitration with several

Ep. 202 - Benintendi has been signed so what's left?

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/01/09

Hey Sox fans! Welcome to Season 5: Episode 202. The Chicago White Sox officially announced the signing of left fielder free agent, Andrew Benintendi. The Sox were apparently all in on Benintendi from Day 1 of free agency. Rick Hahn and company have made no secret that Benintendi has been a coveted player for quite some time. Finally, the White Sox have an actual left fielder to play left field. So what's next? The Sox need to address second base and maybe even right field. Garrett Crochet's name has

Ep. 201 - Renewed Sense of Hope & Optimism

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2023/01/02

Hey Sox fans, Happy New Year! If we assume good health and a return to accustomed levels for White Sox players in 2023, what should we expect? Luis Robert and Eloy Jimenez playing 135-140 games and hitting a combined 80 home runs? Yasmani Grandal and Yoan Moncada returning to their 2019 selves? Could Lucas Giolito get back to the pitcher we saw Game 1 of the 2020 playoffs? Will this upcoming season be a breakout for Andrew Vaughn? If we assume health, then the Chicago White Sox could be a dangerous

Ep. 200 - Throwing Money at Problems

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2022/12/21

Hey Sox fans! Welcome to our 200th episode. The White Sox made a splash and signed free agent Andrew Benintendi to a 5 yr./$75 million dollar deal. The Sox were not expected to throw money at their problems but left field has been a problem area for quite some time. Benintendi has been coveted by the White Sox organization since 2015 and it's nice to see the Sox not only target a player but also go out and acquire him. The signing of Benintendi will hopefully end the age old question of whether or

Ep. 199 - The Joke is on Chicago White Sox Fans... Again

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2022/12/12

Hey Sox fans! The MLB Winter Meetings wrapped up and the Chicago White Sox did virtually nothing to address roster needs and better the ballclub for 2023. General manager, Rick Hahn, pleaded for patience and tried to empathize with fans while owner Jerry Reinsdorf tried his hand at comedy. The joke is on White Sox fans and it has been for a very long time. With Reinsdorf as an owner, the Chicago White Sox will never be able to compete with clubs like the New York Mets, San Diego Padres or

Ep. 198 - Let's Make a Deal or Not... Whatever

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2022/12/05

Hey Sox fans, welcome to the start of Season 5 of the podcast. The MLB Winter Meetings are underway in San Diego. Will the Sox come away with Michael Conforto, Cody Bellinger or Brandon Nimmo? Maybe the Sox will trade someone like Lucas Giolito or Liam Hendriks? One thing is for sure, the White Sox will not be spending premium money on premium talent. We will save that for the New York Mets, Texas Rangers and San Diego Padres. How does Rick Hahn still have a job? To answer that you might need to

Ep. 197 - Trash into Treasure?

Good Guys Talk Back ·

2022/11/28

Hey Sox fans! The Chicago White Sox addressed their need for more pitching by signing free agent Mike Clevinger to a one year deal, pending a physical. Clevinger seems to be a reclamation project for pitching coach Ethan Katz to get his hands on. It's a low risk move that will hopefully allow the White Sox to fill their other needs. Clevinger has battled injuries over the last few seasons and faced a drop in his production. He missed the entire 2021 season due to recovery from his 2nd Tommy John
