Despite already being mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, the Chicago White Sox are demonstrating a spirited fight under interim manager Grady Sizemore. Even in a tough 4-2 loss to the Detroit Tigers on Friday, the team is clinging to optimism with some promising news from GM Chris Getz. According to MLB.com’s Scott Merkin, both Yoan Moncada and Michael Soroka are set to embark on rehab assignments soon, offering a glimmer of hope for a squad eyeing 2025 and beyond.

Currently languishing 42.5 games behind the division-leading Cleveland Guardians, the White Sox are firmly in rebuild mode. This marks the first year of a new direction led by Getz, who took over from former manager Pedro Grifol a few weeks ago. Sizemore, stepping into the managerial role after Grifol’s departure, is now evaluating the potential building blocks for the future. With notable talents like Garrett Crochet and Luis Robert Jr. already in the spotlight, the team is eager to discover additional key contributors.

Yoan Moncada, who has been sidelined on the 60-day injured list due to a thigh injury, and Michael Soroka, out with a shoulder ailment on the 15-day IL, are both nearing their return. Moncada, acquired from the Boston Red Sox in the Chris Sale trade, has yet to meet the high expectations set by his prospect status. Soroka, who is still searching for his first win in a White Sox uniform, currently holds an 0-10 record with an ERA over five. Both players will head to Charlotte, the White Sox’s Triple-A affiliate, for their rehab assignments, bringing a sense of imminent reinforcements to the major league roster.

The return of Moncada and Soroka is expected to bolster the White Sox’s performance in the final stretch of the season. Their presence could provide a significant boost, helping the team secure a few more victories as Sizemore works to solidify his position as the team’s long-term manager.

Sizemore, a former star player with the Cleveland Indians, saw his career cut short by injuries. His rapid ascent into the managerial role is both promising and intriguing. His youthful energy might resonate well with the developing roster that Getz is assembling. As the White Sox continue to integrate talented prospects from their minor league system, Sizemore’s ability to guide them through the transition will be crucial.

If Sizemore can lead the team to a strong finish, it could bolster his candidacy for a permanent managerial role. The White Sox’s future is clearly in flux, but the potential return of Moncada and Soroka, combined with Sizemore’s leadership, might just set the stage for a more promising chapter ahead.
