With no Manny Machado present, the past and future share the spotlight at SoxFest

Dozens of fans braving the cold and snow chanted “Manny, Manny” Friday afternoon when White Sox general manager Rick Hahn was introduced during the opening ceremony of SoxFest.

One only could assume they weren’t congratulating him for Manny Banuelos, a minor-league pitcher Hahn picked up from the Dodgers this offseason to compete for a spot in the rotation.

No compatible source was found for this media.

The player on everyone’s mind, no doubt, was star shortstop Manny Machado, who may or may not wind up in a Sox uniform after the longest free-agent pursuit in franchise history.
