The Chicago White Sox are struggling significantly this season, currently holding a record of 28-90, which puts them on track to challenge the 1962 Mets for the worst record in modern MLB history. Their performance includes a staggering 21-game losing streak, prompting concerns about their management under owner Jerry Reinsdorf and the lack of strategic changes to improve the team's fortunes. Former player A.J. Pierzynski suggests that the team could learn from the Tampa Bay Rays' model of successful player development and management. Despite snapping their losing streak recently, the White Sox's overall performance has led to a .239 winning percentage, the worst in the league. The team's long-term issues echo the past struggles of teams like the 1961 Phillies, with players from that era sharing their own painful experiences of losing seasons. Without transformative changes, the outlook for the White Sox remains bleak, risking further alienation from their fanbase.
