Chuck Garfien sits down with White Sox Triple-A manager Chad Pinder to break down one of the organization’s biggest storylines: the rise of Noah Schultz who is about to make his MLB debut. Pinder shares his first impressions of Schultz, whether he was surprised by how quickly the left-hander reached the big leagues or if any key adjustments helped spark his early-season jump. He also takes us inside the moment Schultz got the call to the majors and the reaction from teammates.
The conversation also dives into the hot start of Sam Antonacci, highlighting his baseball IQ, defensive transition to the outfield, and areas still needing development—while Pinder reflects on making a similar jump himself with the Oakland Athletics. Plus, updates on top arms Hagen Smith and Tanner McDougal; insight on managing Shane Smith after his return to Triple-A; and a look back at Pinder’s own major league debut...that included a pair of coincidences.
