General manager Chris Getz and manager Pedro Grifol need to improve their messaging to Chicago White Sox fans.
Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Michael Kopech wipes his face after giving up a two-run single in the ninth inning against the Minnesota Twins at Guaranteed Rate Field on Sept. 15, 2023, in Chicago.
Getz said Grifol’s first season was made more difficult by his having to wear “a lot of hats” while learning the organization. In confirming Grifol’s return during his introductory news conference to replace Rick Hahn, Getz said next year would be easier for the manager because of the experiences of 2023.
They’re a tag team, at least for now, like the former Chicago Bulls executive tandem of Gar Forman and John Paxson who were lumped together by fans as GarPax. Whether GriGetz can overcome the skepticism of beaten-down Sox fans is a question that won’t be answered until the 2024 season gets underway.
