Glendale, Ariz. – A team is an attraction worldwide with their eighth world series title. The other lost just one MLB record 121 game and has not won a playoff series since 2005. One thing they have?
A spring training parking lot.
Both Los Angeles Dojers and Chicago White Sax live in Cameback Renches during February and March, but life may not be much different as two franchises are ready for a new season.
When the players of the Dojers reported the camp earlier this month, their club house looked like one of the MLB all-stars, while the building’s side of the building requires frequent glimpses on the nameplate above the locker stalls for a trip through the side of the building’s white sox, who was to know who was.
In the days after arrival, the opportunity to repeat the doseers regularly has been asked. White Sox is considering a host of other questions: How do you restore confidence in the club house? What message can you give after the historic season of losing?
Even the morning workouts of the Dojers, usually a worldly early-spring ritual, have served as a celebration of the team that ruled the baseball in the last October and again dominated the Offsen headlines, showing more than 1,000 fans to get a glimpse of their favorite players. On the white sox of the convenience, ESPN recently counted only 21 fans in a workout.
Nevertheless, entering in a year, in which their focus will be on finding positivity, looking up reverse to share a spring home with the white sox team, which is definitely a matter of baseball in all the season.
General Manager Chris Gatez said, “This is a great opportunity to match the world series in a feature, which is to do something to do something.” “How can we defeat them? How can we compete? So yes, doseers have been a very successful outfit. Along with this, we are being said, we know what we need to do and we are ready to do so.”
For Chicago, the season will be measured by the steps taken by most young players, and despite the UPS-end-down which are trying to integrate them into a major league roster, the on-the-field results will have to add to better records than last year’s 41–121 mark.
Gatez said, “I think we are going to win more games than last year.” “Unfortunately, some growing pain in this way is going to challenge your feelings many times, but it is part of the development of some of these players.
“Last year a lot of clarity was provided for many people, including ourselves. We had a lot of work, needed a lot of changes, and we were able to complete this offsen a lot, and started with hiring it.”
Veenable is the first manager who examines all the boxes that were looking for the front office, when it was set to find someone to guide the white sox through a fresh start. The 42 -year -old former Major League outfielders have retired within the last decade and have since worked under some of the best business managers, including Joe Madan, Alex Kora and Bruce Bocha.
“It is actually about being present and doing things we can control now,” Veneble told his team about his initial message.
Veneble’s roster is recalling the best player of the previous season, the left -handed garat crochet, which was traded in Red Sox during Offsen. It features a spatting of a holdover such as Louis Robert Junior and Andrew Vaughan and Andrew Vonnandy (although the beginning of the outfielder’s season will come later when they faced a broken hand on Thursday), who are hungry for the opportunity to remember something other than the fusant of the previous season.
“When I signed here, I signed for five years knowing that there can be ups and downs, but I am here for it and it is my job to go out and perform from there,” said Bennandy. “And last year I didn’t do this. And not only do I feel that I disappointed the fans or the team, I think I let myself take down. You have such high expectations. And when you don’t hit them, it’s disappointing, but you just keep walking.”
White Sox also added a group of travelman free agents looking to reboot his career-in which Joy Gallow, Brandon Drauri and Michael A. Taylor included who were signed for short-term deals with the opportunity to compete for the game time, they were unlikely to be anywhere else.
But the real enthusiasm in favor of the Camback Renge’s Chicago is about a group of possibilities in this spring – six of which appear in the top 100 list of Kelly McDaniels of ESPN, including Leftis Noah Shults and Hegan Smith, which are the top pics of the team in 2022 and 2024 drafts respectively. Both made their spring debut on Wednesday, but will not break the camp with the big league club. Providing promise for the future is also a catcher’s kyle, which was the focal point of the return of white sox for crochet, and Shortstop Koson Montgomery, who worked in the team’s first spring game.
“We have really brought in very good veterans, so it is really good to talk to them, choose their minds, not even about baseball, just how they go about their business, how you go as a supporter,” Montgomery said. “We have really very young talents, and I think fans and everyone should really be excited.”
While anchoring the lineup with Montgomery, anchoring the lineup, while the rotation on the top of Shults and Smith has helped the gatez stay in the course in reconstruction of Chicago, even the damage at the major league levels.
“There is no time to complain. And there is no one to actually complain,” Getz said. “We dirty our hands and started working. It was not a day to get away from it because we did not want to get away from it. We wanted to dive into it and continued to move forward.
“Physically, mentally relieves yourself of negative things, but I personally broadcast it for inspiration to improve it. And I know it is a clue, in itself, but it is the truth of the matter.”
Earlier this week, across the parking lot, $ 325 million, Yoshinobu Yamamototo, after throwing a bulfan session, the doors of the baseball operation, Andrew Freedman reflected at the plight of his white sox equivalent.
Freedman and Gatez are sometimes found on backfields in Cameback Reng. Freedman is sympathetic with Gates despite the huge inequality between his two Roasters, including a payroll difference of over $ 300 million. La enters the season with an MLB-Leide payroll, approaching close to $ 400 million, compared to Chicago’s 29th ranked $ 83 million, a number The franchise has dropped down during its reconstruction.
Friedman said, “This is definitely a challenge, but in many ways there are many fun aspects of it, building various departments and growing.” And this does not mean that you are not disagreeing, but put those processes in place and when you are at this point are more innovative, how we were with rays in 2006 and 2007.
“During the period of that time you can build a very strong foundation, while it is not fun during joining. But when you look back, when you have reached a point of success, where much of them can be attributed to those early years, it can be very beneficial.”
While Gatez can only dream of those days for now, he is using his unique spring training ventage points to soak up how a model organization is run. Asked what he admits about the doors, he pointed to a detailed ground-up approach, often ignored between franchise’s brilliant offsen signing.
“Being a former farm director and is associated with a campus with the doseers and given what they do regularly, interacting, interacting, seeing what is being done, it is really a small market mentality in terms of the players’ development,” Getz said. “I respect how they go about it. It’s not just spending; they do very few things.”
Of course, it is going to take more things than small things to make the distance between them and the doseers for white sox – or even most of the other 28 major league teams – and it was clear that as soon as the curtain was opened in a new session of the Cactus League Games.
Last Thursday, 10,959 fans were mainly shown for La’s opener, dressed in Dodger Blue. Four days later, White Sox played his first domestic game of spring in front of a declared 2,636 crowd. Fans who made their way to Cameback Winch for the matchup with Texas Rangers on Monday afternoon congratulated someone with an familiar scene after the 2024 season: Chicago immediately gave nine runs at the top of the first innings.
“Obviously, you are not going to meet a fan who wants us now,” Getz said. “But if they are clinging to our side, when we reach there, it is going to be a really special moment for a lot of people.”
