On today’s show, I explain why Tony La Russa will not work with the White Sox, although it won’t necessarily be his fault. I also catch up with Scott Merkin, White Sox Beat Writer for MLB.com (19:50)! We further discuss the team’s decision to hire Tony La Russa, and assess what it means for their future. We also talk about the upcoming free agency outlook, including the White Sox’s odds at signing Trevor Bauer. Later in the interview, Scott reveals his favorite Tony La Russa story, plus shares touching memories of his father, who recently passed away.
