Guest: Max Rieper, Royals Review On this week's episode, we say goodbye to Brett Lawrie, as the White Sox granted the second baseman's his unconditional release. Josh thinks this is a stupid move while Jim believes that Lawrie and the White Sox feelings about parting ways are mutual. With four teams reportingly interested in Lawrie, did the White Sox make the right move cutting Lawrie now? What does this mean for second base to start 2017? We also discuss Carlos Rodon's throwing schedule, Danny Hayes, and great bounce back performances from Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez. Over the course of four weeks, we will be previewing AL Central rivals 2017 seasons, beginning with the Kansas City Royals. Max Rieper from Royals Review joins as a guest to share how Royals fans are coping with the loss of Yordano Ventura, how the season plays out if they decide to sell, and what the future holds.
