For we KC Royals fans wondering what a team should look like after a three-year rebuild, it is worth our time to analyze what the Chicago White Sox have done. Chicago lost 284 games over the last three years. A brutal three-year stretch for any organization by any objective measure. But, in my estimation, they at least lost for the proper reasons.
2016 was an epic disaster for the Chicago White Sox. Shortly before the season Adam LaRoche suddenly retired and walked away from $13 million because he had been told he could not bring his son to work with him every day.
