The guys discuss a new analytical approach from the White Sox front office and ask if that's why the team seems to be hyping Jarred Kelenic this week.

More national lists are also coming out, and one has a young Sox player in the Top 100 in all of MLB for the first time. Plus, the Sox Nerd explains why he held back a nugget from the scoreboard during Mark Buehrle's perfect game.
