Chuck Garfien sits down with Davis Martin to discuss his unique perspective as the longest-tenured player on a young White Sox roster. Martin shares his view on his leadership role, what he’s seeing from the team’s clubhouse chemistry and breaks down a gritty, hard-fought series in Kansas City.
Martin also dives into his performance on the mound, addressing early-season results, the state of his stuff, and how he handles outside criticism of the starting rotation. Plus, he discusses the debut of top prospect Noah Schultz, touches on Shane Smith’s time in Charlotte as he works his way back to the majors, and reflects on whether this version of himself is the best he’s brought to the big leagues so far.
