Episode Notes

White Sox pitcher Martín Pérez joins Chuck Garfien to talk about his road back from an elbow injury that’s kept him out since April, why he stayed with the team instead of rehabbing in Arizona, and how he’s been mentoring teammates from the dugout. Pérez shares why he believes the Sox’s improved culture and second-half surge signal even bigger things for 2026, his respect for first-year manager Will Venable, and what he’s learned through the rehab process.
