The news was surprising because Jerry Reinsdorf is loyal to his people. it was time for a change, but true change may mean ousting himself.
Instead, after the 2012 season, Reinsdorf promoted Williams and Hahn. From 2013 through 2016, the Sox went 290-358, finishing in fourth or fifth in the AL Central every year. That’s when the rebuild started and, in the wake of the Cubs showing how efficiently this strategy could work, there was fresh hope on the South Side, even though in normal organizations, the players who got you to the point where you need to rebuild don’t get to stick around.
But, of course, the chairman had something to do with the failure as well, starting by going over his baseball executives to hire his friend Tony La Russa out of retirement to manage. La Russa took them to the playoffs in 2021, but it was clear he had lost his fastball. He missed part of 2022 with an illness that had limited him that season, but it didn’t matter. We could all see the rebuild was going to fail.
At the end of the team’s press release, we got a clue on the latter question: “The White Sox will begin a search for a single decision maker to lead the baseball operations department and anticipate having an individual in place by the end of the season.”
