00:00Remember, I think this offense is going to be just as good as the Cubs' offense,
00:03and I think they'll have more power than the Cubs' offense.
00:05Sheesh, that's a—you're asking a lot, brother.
00:08You say I'm asking a lot.
00:09Can I point something to you real quick?
00:11Sure.
00:13Let's go back to, I don't know, last season.
00:17The Cubs had more home runs than the White Sox, right?
00:20Are you saying that as fact?
00:22Yeah, the Cubs had more home runs than the White Sox.
00:24Okay.
00:26Let me point out another fact.
00:29But there's the beginning of the season, and there is the end of the season.
00:34Okay.
00:35If we go back to post-All-Star break, guess who had more home runs?
00:43I'm assuming it's going to be the Chicago White Sox.
00:45The Chicago White Sox had more home runs than the Cubs after the All-Star break.
00:50They had 89.
00:52The Cubs had 81.
00:55The White Sox were eighth in baseball.
00:57After the All-Star break in home runs.
01:00I expect something closer to post-All-Star break in terms of production,
01:04with all those young guys now having some more experience under their belt in 2026 than what we saw last
01:10year.
01:10And I think both Murakami and Montgomery are going to be a big reason why.
01:18They're going to hit bombs.
01:19They're going to have teammates who hit bombs.
01:21And they're going to drive in lots of runs.
01:23Their pitching is going to be questionable, especially at the start of the season.
01:29But I think the hitting is going to be solid.
01:31It's going to be a top-10 offense.
01:33Top-10 in runs scored in Major League Baseball.
01:35The Chicago White Sox.
01:36You heard me.
01:37I didn't stutter.
01:38Your ears don't flap.
01:39Marshall.
01:40Okay.
01:42You're asking a team that's not going to go to the playoffs to be top-10 in runs scored.
01:47That is what I'm asking.
01:49Can we write this down, too?
01:53Are we putting a gentleman's wager on that?
01:55I feel like you want to, right?
01:57Yes.
01:58Yes, I do.
01:59Okay.
02:01Let me ask you a question.
02:02Okay.
02:04Who's number one in the majors and home runs, team-wise?
02:10They're in town.
02:11I'll give you a hint.
02:11They're in town.
02:12Is it the Angels?
02:13It's the Angels.
02:14Okay.
02:14Who's number two in Major League Baseball and home runs?
02:17You tell me, Marshall.
02:18It's the White Sox.
02:19Look, I'm trying to let y'all know what's happening here.
