Chris Getz's inaugural season as general manager of the Chicago White Sox has been marred by disappointment, culminating in a staggering 121-loss record. This follows a previous 101-loss season under manager Pedro Grifol. Getz, who was promoted from assistant GM, faces mounting pressure to turn the team's fortunes around after a dismal performance.
Despite the bleak outlook, Getz is making changes, including hiring Will Venable as manager, aiming to revitalize a struggling franchise. With a focus on developing existing talent rather than pursuing expensive free agents, the White Sox are in the midst of a challenging rebuild.
