The Chicago White Sox are expected to lose another 100 games in 2025. The hope is the defeat total will not be record-setting like it was in 2024.
The two major items on general manager Chris Getz’s offseason to-do list have been checked off. He has hired Will Venable as the team’s new manager and traded ace pitcher Garrett Crochet for an impressive return of prospects.
Otherwise, Getz has made a bunch of minor signings, such as adding veteran outfielders Mike Tauchmann and Austin Slater to platoon in right field. Getz did say even before the Sox officially set the record for most losses in a 162-game season that free agency was not going to be used much to improve the roster.
That is why fans have to settle for Tauchman and Slater likely being the biggest additions of the season.
