Episode Notes

Duke Coughlin, Jordan Lazowski, and Nik Gaur are back to discuss some big news for the White Sox: the team has hired Zach Bove and Derek Shomon as their next pitching coach and hitting coach, respectively.

The crew reacts to the hirings by discussing their credentials and what these hirings say about the authority that Ryan Fuller and Brian Bannister have within the organization. Could these hires also represent a larger culture shift occurring within the organization? And what do these hires say about Katz and Thames' shortcomings, if anything?

They also discuss the team's decision to pick up Luis Robert Jr.'s $20M option for 2026 and Chris Getz's comments on the upcoming free agency period.
