Writing White Sox insider gives surprising update on team’s ownership

The Athletic’s Jon Greenberg recently gave his take on another one of the team’s awful starts, holding no thoughts back on the team’s current ownership group. 

“If he really cares for the fans and wants to make things better, as he said repeatedly, then he should see that it’s just time for him to go.” Greenberg said of Jerry Reinsdorf, the team’s majority leader. 

What’s more, the Sox lost again on Wednesday night, dropping their record to 5-19 — they’ve won just four games since opening day. 

“A lot of good at-bats where we’re able to create some traffic,” manager Will Venable said. “We’ve just got to find a way to cash in. It’s as simple as that. Good, quality at-bats and we just need to keep it going.”

The White Sox were last valued at $2.05 billion and $1.9 billion by Forbes and Sportico, respectively.

Reinsdorf has hinted at selling his team in the past, but Sox fans are certainly hoping that comes to fruition. 

Andrew Benintendi signed a 5-year, $75 million contract with Chicago W in 2022, making it the richest deal in White Sox history.

Yes, the richest. 

The White Sox have operated like a small market team throughout the past years, but have not developed like smaller team’s have in the past to find success. 

The result has been bad, with the team starting their 2024 season with 121 losses — the most in MLB history. 

2025 has been just as bad, with potential to only get worse.
