Ep. 56: Alec Hansen wants to be future White Sox ace and why you shouldn’t piss off Dane Dunning
Two of the top pitchers in the White Sox farm system come on the podcast for the first time. Winston-Salem teammates Dane Dunning and Alec Hansen speak with Chuck Garfien and Ryan McGuffey about the White Sox rebuild and how they have both been dominating the competition. Dunning admits he hates to lose and talks candidly about his competitive nature, specifically the time he gave up a home run this season and threw at the same hitter in his next at-bat and was ejected from the game. Hansen talks about his recent hot streak: 24 K, 1 ER in his last 2 starts and reveals that he sees himself being at the top of the White Sox rotation in the future. Dunning and Hansen speak at length about their teammate and budding superstar Eloy Jimenez. Later, CSN's Chris Kamka joins the podcast to give his 2020 White Sox lineup. He sees the White Sox signing a certain free agent in 2019 named Machado but with a position change. He also predicts a big trade. That and more on this edition of the White Sox Talk Podcast.
