![]() Avi, Moncada, Rodon, Jones...? Please define injury. The other point is that the Chicago Whitesox at the MLB level is loosely the parent company over the subsidiaries (minor league operations) that make up the entire Chicago Whitesox organization.

As a sports reporter / broadcaster for over forty years now, I think I have a pretty good feel for when somebody has an agenda or is trying to sell ****. I believe the folks who have been saying some things about the training staff for the last few years that's why I have been suggesting it would be a good idea to bring in some outsiders to look closely at this area and see if something may be missing that can be contributing to so many injuries the past three years at all levels (and I'm not referring to the fluke injuries which happen) more along the lines of conditioning, weight training things to help prevent the numerous knee / hamstring / leg issues. |

If you're doing a rebuild it's because the organization was broken and needs to be repaired the right away. So it would then make sense to explore EVERY avenue of improvement including the training staff. I don't know why this is such a controversial topic. They should absolutely be evaluating and making changes to improve their methods.

Bringing in a consultant to review the White Sox training/condition/nutrition protocol makes sense. Businesses bring in consultants regularly to review their procedures to see if they can be improved. What burns me is the knee jerk reaction of many posters who call for the immediate dismissal of the Sox training staff (usually Herm because, you know, he's worked for the organization - i.e. riding the Reinsdorf gravy train -- for decades) anytime a player or prospect sustains any sort of injury or setback. That sort of reaction IMO is uninformed. I believe most, if not all, of the injuries are not preventable by the training staff and are not occurring at a higher frequency to Sox players compared to other organizations. But then we've litigated this issue seemingly on a weekly basis.
