White Sox REKAP ® Podcast ⚾️ (S2 – EP9): The State of the White Sox with GM Chris Getz in studio!

The #chicago #whitesox have certainly become one of the more intriguing teams in #mlb this offseason with the roster moves that they have made to add to an exciting young core. GM #chrisgetz is back in the REKAP® studios for a lengthy sit-down with #guff and #kap on the podcast. The guys dissect what went right last year, specifically, the decision to send #colsonmontgomery down to Arizona before having a smoking hot start to his career in the 2nd half. They discuss landing the #1 pick in the 2026 MLB Draft and the behind the scenes story about #jerryreinsdorf that was unveiled. When did the Sox get involved with the #munetakamurakami and why the time was right to trade #luisrobert. Plus, does Getz still see this as a rebuild now that many of the fruits of the labor are at the big league level. And, did #benjohnson and his impact on the #chicagobears feed into his excitement about the 2026 Sox? It’s a deep dive of the Chicago White Sox on this edition of the White Sox REKAP® Podcast!

  1. Getz made a rookie mistake after ‘23. Luis Robert, cheap for 3 more years and coming off a remarkable season, was at his peak value. The team was in shambles both in their big league club and minor leagues. Everyone knew they were in for a few disastrous seasons. Why they didn’t trade Robert then made no sense. Bad management. Like I said, maybe it was a rookie GM mistake.

  2. Like many Sox fans, I was disappointed when we hired Getz. I was hoping for a detailed process with candidates from the myriad winning organizations. However, and I know a true grade is far from being earned, I’m pleasantly surprised with how well Getz has performed thus far. I love hiring people from other organizations and surrounding yourself with smart men from around MLB. Hopefully they nail number 1 overall, and we really start seeing an increasing in victories in the next year or two

  3. Good to see, and hear Chris Getz! All you podcasters are great, but it’s nice to hear from the man himself. He did great with what he had to work with and you know that! A couple of moves were more like he just wanted to move on with-like we all did. So glad now with a clean slate…basically. Go Sox!
