The guys discuss a new analytical approach from the White Sox front office and ask if that's why the team seems to be hyping Jarred Kelenic this week. Sure he has a new swing, but is that enough to prevent another outfielder from joining the team before Spring Training? More national lists are also coming out, and one has a young Sox player in the Top 100 in all of MLB for the first time. Plus, the Sox Nerd explains why he held back a nugget from the scoreboard during Mark Buehrle's perfect game.

Sports is better with rivalries, and the Bears should be an example for a young White Sox team.

The White Sox took another swing at the Japanese Free Agent Market, but missed this time. The good news, though, is that they seem like buyers still when it comes to another rotation arm and much more. Plus, the hodgepodge of young outfielders competing for a spot in Spring got bigger with the addition of Jarred Kelenic.
