Chris Getz’s latest update could be bad news for Andrew Benintendi

When the White Sox signed OF Andrew Benintendi prior to the 2023 season, his 5-year, $75 million contract was the largest deal in White Sox history. At the time, it seemed like just what the White Sox needed. Benintendi was coming off an all-star season between the Royals and Yankees in which he hit .304 with a .772 OPS. The White Sox had a disappointing .500 season in 2022 and were looking to bounce back in 2023 with question marks in the outfield. Unfortunately, Benintendi’s tenure in Chicago hasn’t lived up to expectations, and Chris Getz’s comments this week have put Benintendi’s future on the south side in doubt.
