The Chicago White Sox wrap up one of the worst seasons in franchise history on Sunday. Here are 3 offseason questions.
The Sox wrap up one of the worst seasons in franchise history against the San Diego Padres on Sunday at Guaranteed Rate Field. They entered Saturday needing to win their final two games to avoid 100 losses. They’ve only had four 100-loss seasons — 1932, 1948, 1970 and 2018.1. What’s the plan for Tim Anderson and Liam Hendriks?The shortstop earned All-Star selections in 2021-22 and was voted a starter in the event last season.
The Sox have to decide if they’re going to pick up Anderson’s $14 million club option for 2024. If the option is declined, Anderson will receive a $1 million buyout. “He’s meant so much to this organization,” general manager Chris Getz said Tuesday. “He’s been an impactful player for this ballclub. We’re going to have discussions on the best step forward for the White Sox. Whether that be TA playing shortstop for us or not, yeah, there’s an option there that needs to be discussed, and it deserves an exhaustive discussion just because of what he’s meant to this organization.
“There’s many things to take away from this year, patience being one of them,” Kopech said Thursday. “Just not getting too far ahead of yourself, and there’s times when I can look back when I was looking ahead of results instead of in the present moment and attacking each day, each hitter, each pitch. It’s something I know already but to put in practice is a lot more serious and deliberate work. Overall I have to be prepared every day.
Korey Lee, acquired from the Houston Astros near the trade deadline, has done a bulk of the catching down the stretch. He has displayed a strong arm but has five hits in 65 at-bats. The concentration has been onAs for assessing second base in 2023, manager Pedro Grifol said Saturday that “our second base for the most part has been Elvis, he’ll be a free agent and that’s going to be a decision that Chris and his staff, all of us will get together to see which direction we want to go in there .
