It’s a fan’s nature to overreact to small sample sizes. What else do we have to do, really? It’s not like we can turn in a lineup card or make a call to the bullpen.
Here’s a few takes that White Sox fans may have early in the 2021 season. Are they overreactions, or will they hold true when 90% of the season is gone?
The team defense is terrible.
Overreaction? Not at all. The defense has been brutal. BUT, it’s possible (and even likely) that the team is pressing early due to an unfamiliarity with expectations of being, you know, good.
