South Side Sox on the Farm Podcast 15 — Pitching Depth, and Three Shooting Stars — 2021-08-26

Darren Black and Brett Ballantini are back with the Farm podcast, talking over recent injuries depleting the system, as well as three bright spots, all at the same position — and no, for once, it’s not designated hitter! The highlights: The serious lat injury to Jonathan Stiever reduces the starting depth in the system to essentially zero If the White Sox had to have just a few standout players in the system this season, thank goodness those standouts are middle infielders like Romy González, Yolbert Sánchez and José Rodríguez A little bit of Yoelqui Céspedes chatter, who has his eye, like Romy, on Chicago in 2022 The Arizona Complex League team has a lousy record and not much pitching, but the bats are alive there Darren offers his picks for September call-ups this season (just two this year). One recovers from a mysteriously lingering injury, the other represents the last upper-level arm left in the system Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
