White Sox to keep Grady Sizemore on as offensive coordinator

CHICAGO -- Grady Sizemore is staying with the Chicago White Sox, serving as the offensive coordinator under first-year manager Will Venable.

Sizemore was elevated to interim manager when Chicago fired Pedro Grifol in August. The former big league outfielder guided the team to a 13-32 record down the stretch as the White Sox went 41-121 to break the post-1900 major league record for losses in a season.

Shortly after Venable was hired in October, he said he anticipated Sizemore being a part of his first staff with his new team.

The White Sox announced Sizemore and the rest of the team's coaches on Monday.
