Hey Sox fans! Welcome back to Good Guys Talk Back. Ever since Pedro Grifol was hired back in November of 2022, the Kansas City Royals/Chicago White Sox connections have continued to develop and the latest rumor oozes Royals blue. According to sources, the White Sox may pursue Salvador Perez and/or Whit Merrifield this offseason. Perez is not a free agent and is owed a considerable amount of money. Merrfield, on the other hand, has a club option. Perez and Grifol have a solid relationship and the Sox may see the services of Perez necessary to reconfigure the culture and chemistry in the clubhouse. Merrifield can play the outfield as well as second base and is durable. The acquisition of Perez or Merrifield do not make the Sox a contending team in 2024 however it further galvanizes the confusing desire for the Sox to mimic the Royals of yesteryear. The White Sox have numerous question marks in the coaching department and on the roster.... advice to Sox fans is to look to Kansas City. Thank you for the continued support, Go Sox. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/good-guys-talk-back/message
