The Chicago White Sox are hiring Will Venable as their new manager, according to league sources.
The Chicago White Sox are set to hire Will Venable as their new manager, as reported by a major-league source.
Chicago dismissed manager Pedro Grifol in August following a franchise-record 21-game losing streak. Grady Sizemore stepped in as interim manager, ending the season with a 13-32 record. “I think it’s important to bring in a new voice, a fresh voice, perhaps that’s been exposed to areas of this game that we don’t currently have in our organization,” Getz said at the time. “I’m very curious to learn more about some of these individuals and then we’ll get it to the finish line and name the next manager.”
The Cubs initially brought Venable on board as a special assistant to baseball operations in September 2017. He subsequently held positions as the team’s first-base coach from 2018 to 2019 and as the third-base coach in 2020.
