What is up, White Sox fans?
And welcome back to White Sox Round Table.
I'm Joey Polizzi, talking about all things White Sox.
And there's a lot of discussions about which team is Chris Sale going to represent when he eventually makes it to the Hall of Fame.
Now, it's obviously a lock that Chris Sale will make it to the Hall of Fame when he does decide to hang up the cleats.
He has kinda been one of the best pitchers of this generation, really good, 10-time All-Star, a former National League Cy Young winner, a World Series winner.
Like Chris Sale is going to be a Hall of Famer one day when he decides to call it quits.
But the question is: Which team will Chris Sale represent?
Will it be the Braves, in which he will probably end his career with, has pitched probably the most dominant with the Braves of any team that he's played with?
And he has been really, really good with his Braves team, obviously winning National League Cy Young Award with this organization.
So Sale posting really good numbers with the Braves.
Will it be the Red Sox, in which he won a World Series?
Yes, he dealt with some injuries in Boston, including Tommy John surgery.
But Sale did win a World Series, and that's obviously important.
Or will it be the Chicago White Sox?
And the White Sox is obviously where Sale began his career, was drafted by the White Sox 13th overall in the 2010 MLB draft, spent seven seasons with the White Sox before the White Sox eventually decided to trade him to Boston.
But I think when it's all said and done and Chris Sale has to choose his team, it is going to be the Chicago White Sox.
No bad blood between the White Sox and Sale, and this is where Sale got his career started.
The White Sox are the reason that Sale is where he's at today and becoming one of the most dominant pitchers of this generation.
He was a multi-time All-Star, five-time All-Star with the White Sox, finished top Cy Young finish i- with the Chicago White Sox.
And it's just I- it just makes sense for Sale to represent the White Sox, where his career started, and obviously would be nice for Sale to represent the White Sox when he does eventually make it to the Hall of Fame.
But let me know what you guys think about this.
Will he represent the White Sox?
Let me know down below.
