Will Venable has been appointed as the new manager for the Chicago White Sox, following their challenging season where they set a modern major league record for most losses. The announcement was made shortly after the conclusion of the World Series. Venable expressed his enthusiasm for the opportunity, highlighting the positive direction the White Sox organization is heading in and the foundation being laid for future success.
Venable, who recently turned 42, takes over from Pedro Grifol, who was relieved of his duties in August. The team had a difficult season, finishing with a 41-121 record under interim manager Grady Sizemore.
