Working Out The Kinks

Jackson_100 I know that the White Sox record hasn't been real impressive so far and fans may wonder "are they being a little lackadaisical or sitting on their laurels?"  Right now, that's not the case.  They are just not playing good baseball. That's all is comes down to.

I talked to Sox hitting coach Greg Walker recently.  He said the guys are getting closer and closer to their timing each day.  They had a game the other day where they hit some good balls that I thought would go out, but fell just short.  That's the type of thing shows a need for better timing.

As you saw last season with the White Sox, the main reason for spring training is getting yourself ready to go for the main thing.   I think Ozzie has that same approach.  It's way too early to worry.

DJ is correct. Nothing to worry about..yet. The spring record means nothing. More important is the individual players getting into their routines, getting their at bats and getting the new guys acclimated to their new team.
