Back before the start of the 2021 season ESPN1000's David Kaplan told us he was so into the White Sox that he was getting season tickets. The Kapman returns now to kick of Soxtober and talk about White Sox postseason chances, Tony La Russa's impact and the big uptick in White Sox fans talking about their team on the flagship radio station. Meanwhile an recent unnecessary article concerning White Sox payroll and attendance got under our skin. Plus, we ask which potential playoff starting pitcher you trust the most after Lynn, Giolito & Cease.
