The Chicago White Sox acquired veteran catcher Max Stassi shortly after the news of Shohei Ohtani's record $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers was released.
The unintentional timing of the move, coming on the heels of the Dodgers' gargantuan expenditure, only magnified the apparent direction (or misdirection) of the Sox. The offseason stasis adds to the litany of Sox lowlights, from the unsolved gunshots at Guaranteed Rate Field to the end of the 101-loss season, from announcer Jason Benetti's surprising departure to Tony La Russa's stealthy return as an 'advisor.'
