MESA, Ariz. — The White Sox boarded a plane for Houston Tuesday, the first spring training in manager Pedro Grifol’s managerial career left behind in the distance, and the 2022 season left somewhere even further behind.
As Grifol liked to say, a season can’t be won in spring training, but it can be lost. Attention to detail, emphasis on communication, getting drills right and accountability were the focus points for a team that played .500 ball the year before.
