On the latest episode of the FutureSox Podcast Ian Eskridge and James Fox started with a look at the playoffs series that are currently underway, and noted a few ex-White Sox players that have been involved. They then transitioned to the recent rumor of Buck Showalter throwing his hat in the ring to manage the 2025 Southside club. Will the Sox go for another 65+ yo to helm the bench? They also go into who they think is the leading candidate at this particular moment.

They moved to the AFL preview and some talk on some of the guys that will represent the White Sox in Glendale before moving to the International Scouting situation. The White Sox have fired scouts in the Dominican, Venezuela, Mexico, and Panama. Looks like a complete restructuring of the scouting system as had been suggested. They finished up the episode with a quick run through of the recent MLB Trade Rumors suggested arbitration numbers and who they cut or keep.

A fun episode tonight with a lot of chat interaction.
