The Chicago White Sox did something this week that they should've already done and that was relieve president Ken Williams and general manager Rick Hahn of their duties. It was years of underperforming and the roster never reached its potential. Should the San Diego Padres follow in Chicago's footsteps and let go of A.J. Preller? Plus, Shohei Ohtani has torn his UCL so there's going to be some uncertainty about his future as a two-way player. Will the Padres be able to get him on a discount? Near the end of the show, Ben gives his reaction to this being San Diego Loyal's final season.
