The White Sox fired their top executives more than a month ago. They sold off half their pitching staff at the trade deadline. They suffered a 10-game losing streak — typically a season-wrecking skid — in the opening month. They also shut down Luis Robert Jr., their only All-Star, for the season at the start of the week.
Surely, every meaningful marker of failure for the 2023 season was reached well before they were defeated 6-1 by the Padres on Saturday to lose their 100th game.
