The Chicago White Sox have confirmed the hiring of Will Venable as their new manager following a historically poor season with 121 losses. Venable, who served as the associate manager for the Texas Rangers, brings extensive coaching experience under multiple World Series-winning managers, including Bruce Bochy, Joe Maddon, and Alex Cora. This decision marks a shift for the White Sox, who have typically promoted from within, as Venable is their first external managerial hire since 1998. While some experts express skepticism about the potential for success given the team's recent track record, others believe Venable's fresh perspective could revitalize the struggling franchise. The White Sox, under the leadership of new GM Chris Getz, are looking to reshape their roster and improve team dynamics with Venable at the helm. However, the team's ownership has indicated a reluctance to make significant offseason investments, which may hinder immediate success.
