The White Sox Podcast w/ Chuck Garfien

Will the White Sox move to a new stadium in the South Loop?!

Chuck Garfien speaks with Chicago Sun-Times reporter Tim Novak one of the writers who broke the story that the White Sox are in "serious" discussions about potentially building a new stadium on a parcel of land called "The 78" in the South Loop. How realistic is this idea? What would a park in this location with possible views of the skyline mean for the White Sox? And who's going to pay for it? Chuck also talks about the previous podcast about Yasiel Puig.

Should the White Sox take a gamble on Yasiel Puig for right field?

Talented but controversial outfielder Yasiel Puig has been putting on a show this offseason in the Venezuelan Winter League, hitting .418/.518/.846, and playing for manager Ozzie Guillen. Should the White Sox consider signing Puig to play right field? Chuck Garfien and Ryan McGuffey speak with Ozzie Guillen Jr., who's been in Venezuela, getting an up-close look at how Puig is playing, how he's acting, and if he'd be a good fit for the White Sox.
