Our first Reacts survey of the season begs an obvious question, and your answers did surprise:
Two-thirds of you feel the White Sox will lose no more than 111 games. At worst, that means the 2025 White Sox will improve by a minimum of 10 games. Goodness. The outliers of either a fantastically “great” season (fewer than 92 losses) or another record-breaker (122+) being chosen about equally feels about right, however.
For the record, I am in the 7%.
The broad question in the survey asked readers to handicap the AL Central:

Even tossing out the 2% pranksters, it’s a bit stunning that only 84% feel the White Sox are a last place team.
