The White Sox will see the Nationals again this year thanks to the balanced MLB schedule, so I have another chance to chat with the brilliant Davy Andrews. In a fun episode, we discussed the sister teams and their desire to pick up Some Guys from MLB’s clearance rack. Both teams seem to be proceeding with a “don’t call it a rebuild” rebuild by firing the front office and acquiring veteran players on one-year contracts in hopes of trade bait, but one team is at least winning games.Here’s what we talked about in this episode:

What’s new in the nation’s capital?

If we stop the season right now

Grading the offseason

Hockey?

Confidence going into 2024

Commonalities and old friends

Black Friday bargain bin shopping

Pitching matchups

Trevor Williams, CJ Abrams, and other likable guys

Threats, fears, and keys to winning a series

Thoughts for the 2024 season
