About this episode

Happy one year anniversary to White Sox Business! Get your rammin' man hard hats on and buckle up, this episode is dynamite. Out of the blocks, Tommy and Jimmy rejoice that there's White Sox news to cover, though that's short lived, as James expresses his concerns about Chicago's first-round draft selection, Garrett Crochet (1:00). The Athletic's senior baseball writer, Keith Law, then joins the Business to indulge Tom and James on all their questions about Crochet, among other things, and the draft as a whole (9:15)! What observations has Keith made about Crochet's pitching repertoire that's liken him to another former all-star White Sox pitcher? What's Crochet's ceiling? A middle of the rotation hurler or an effective long-term reliever (15:25)? Where does Crochet rank among current White Sox prospects (19:15), plus who does Keith believe to be the most surprising first-round get (21:30)?
