White Sox Fire Manager Pedro Grifol

The Chicago White Sox have fired manager Pedro Grifol after a historically poor 2024 season, with the team holding a 28-89 record, the worst in MLB. General Manager Chris Getz acknowledged the disappointing performance as necessitating a change to revitalize the team's future. Grifol's tenure resulted in a win percentage of just .319, one of the lowest in MLB history, and the White Sox have already set records for losing streaks this season. Fans are increasingly blaming owner Jerry Reinsdorf for the team's failures, questioning his management decisions and commitment to improving the franchise. As the team seeks an interim manager, the situation raises concerns about the overall direction of the organization, especially with the pressure on Getz to rebuild. The White Sox's issues highlight deeper organizational problems beyond just managerial performance, as they strive to regain competitiveness.
