## Resource

We take our best guess at the final roster for the start of the 2026 regular season and discover the few actual roster battle winners. One was Reese McGuire, surprisingly, as he got $1.2 million to supplant Korey Lee. Why did it happen? What’s the long-term plan for McGuire? We try to make sense of it all in ”30 Minutes of Sox!” Video version on YouTube! Chris Lanuti and Ed Siebert sit at a basement bar on the South Side of Chicago to discuss their favorite team - The Chicago White Sox in a podcast ”For Fans, By Fans!” Listen. Subscribe. Share.
