Benintendi’s quote is a reflection of a franchise that doesn’t get it. Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf, head ever in the sand, doesn’t get it. He’s responsible for this. He’s the one who hired general manager Chris Getz, who doesn’t get it. He’s the one who hired manager Pedro Grifol, who doesn’t get it. Promises were made before the season about things getting better. And now?

It’s actually a lot uglier than it looks.

29 baseball teams still have a theoretical path to win 100 games this year.

The Chicago White Sox could win every single game for the entire rest of the season. (73 games) and would still only win 98 games.

The White Sox have not won a game in 2024, when trailed after the 6th, 7th, or 8th inning's.  They are now 0-53 when trailing after 8.

The only game at all this year where they came from behind to win when trailing in the 7th inning or later happened on April 27 against Tampa Bay. They trailed going into the last of the 10th inning but won 8-7. 

One single solitary game.

Wow.

Saw this stat this morning, it may also turn out to be a record.

Grifol is 2-12 in challenges so far this season.

He's been thrown out of more games than challenges won.
