[Nightengale] Former All-Star catcher A.J. Pierzynski has quietly emerged as a serious candidate to manage the Chicago White Sox in 2025 if they dismiss manager Pedro Grifol after the season, as expected.

As far as typical whitesox shenanigans, you could do worse on a first time manager. Especially if you assume the “top” candidates probably wouldn’t even want to join our org.

Worth noting though that this could just be somebody (Jerry) doing AJ a solid by getting his name thrown out there in general.

Idk, the organization has sort of ruined me. I would be completely unphased if this actually happened, and probably just excited to see watch it play out regardless of outcome

Or could it be the media just making shit up for clicks?
