The Arizona Meeting, How the Sox Can Take Advantage of Universal DH & We'll Miss You, Tom

We're at the point where every MLB negotiation update is like the fisherman from that State Farm commercial that teases and tempts us with that tantalizing dollar bill. Tom and James aggressively apply a generous amount of hand sanitizer at hearing the news of Rob Manfred and Tony Clark rendezvousing in Arizona (1:30). What concessions will both sides need to make in order to reach a compromise? Tom, in an act of defiance, denounces MLB's expanded playoffs (9:45). How can the Sox cash in on the universal designated hitter (16:30)? Plus, we give hugs and kisses to Tom as he departs from White Sox Business (25:00).Follow Tom on Twitter: @TomFornelliFollow James on Twitter: @JRFeganFollow a generic soccer account on Twitter: @WriteSox
