Inside the signing of Munetaka Murakami with David Keller
About this episode
On this week’s episode, Chuck Garfien sits down with David Keller who runs international scouting for the White Sox to go behind the scenes of the signing of Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami. Keller breaks down what went into landing Murakami and why his special power made him a must-have target.
The conversation also dives into who Murakami is as a player and beyond the box score — the type of person and teammate he’s expected to be in the clubhouse — and how his skill set translates to the major leagues. Plus, Keller shares how the White Sox are continuing to strengthen their international scouting footprint.
