I watched a spring training game yesterday afternoon on MLB.com between my South Side heroes, the Chicago White Sox, and the Milwaukee Brewers. It took place at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Arizona, and the fans were all bundled up against the cold as the game started after a 30-minute rain delay. The sun eventually returned, but the improved weather conditions did not help the Sox. They lost to the Brewers 8-2. However, at this point during the spring, teams are still putting in new pitchers almost every inning and fielding different position players to see who should make the club. In yesterday's game, Dylan Cease, the White Sox ace starter, gave up only 1 run in 3 innings of work, while relief pitcher Bryan Shaw gave up 6 earned runs in 2/3 of an inning. As for the offense, the White Sox managed only 2 hits, although the day before against the Dodgers they had 11. Of course, since the regular season begins in less than three weeks, teams will soon begin making cuts and sending players to the minor league camps. And in another week or so, we will get a good idea of what the White Sox will look like in 2024. As of today, I'm afraid just thinking about it.
