Episode 1199
Chicago White Sox fans face a tough question: should the team trade one of their prized young catchers, Edgar Quero or Kyle Teel, to accelerate the rebuild, or is it time to double down on homegrown talent?

Key topics include the offensive and defensive upsides of both catchers, creative lineup solutions for maximizing their value, and the potential impact of Korey Lee’s status. Host Todd Welter also weighs in on the team’s pursuit of free agent Ryan O’Hearn and explores fan sentiment around Grant Taylor’s bullpen future. With analysis of Colson Montgomery's star potential, the latest trade buzz, and the need for long-term thinking, this episode offers a must-hear roadmap for the White Sox’s next chapter.
