Will the Chicago White Sox's offseason be as disappointing as predicted? With ownership's reluctance to authorize much spending in free agency, the team's ability to get better is going to be limited. Garrett Crochet is also likely to get traded. That shapes up for a terrible offseason that is discussed with Barstool Chicago's White Sox Dave.

Host Todd Welter and Dave dive into the White Sox's hiring Will Venable as the new manager, player development struggles, inconsistent hitting philosophy, and communication gaps with fans. Todd and Dave also address the impact of Jerry Reinsdorf's ownership on the team's competitive edge.
