# 2023 Chicago White Sox season

The 2023 Chicago White Sox season was the club's 124th season in Chicago, their 123rd in the American League and their 33rd at Guaranteed Rate Field. It is also the team's first season under the management of Pedro Grifol.
On August 22 after starting the season 49–76, owner Jerry Reinsdorf fired general manager Rick Hahn and executive vice president Kenny Williams. After a loss to the Orioles on August 29, the White Sox failed to improve on their 81–81 record from the 2022 season. They were eliminated from playoff contention on September 10, following their loss to the Detroit Tigers.
The Chicago White Sox drew an average home attendance of 21,405 in 78 home games in the 2023 MLB season.

## Offseason
### Rule changes

Pursuant to the CBA, new rule changes will be in place for the 2023 season:
* institution of a pitch clock between pitches;
* limits on pickoff attempts per plate appearance;
* limits on defensive shifts requiring two infielders to be on either side of second and be within the boundary of the infield; and
* larger bases (increased to 18-inch squares);

### Manager

On October 3, 2022 with three games left of the 2022 regular season, White Sox manager Tony La Russa announced he would step down as manager due to concerns about his health. On November 1, the White Sox hired Kansas City Royals bench coach Pedro Grifol as their 42nd manager. Grifol had been with the Royals since 2013 and was named their bench coach in 2020.

### Transactions

* December 4, 2022: RHP Mike Clevinger signs a one year, $12 million contract.
* January 3, 2023: OF Andrew Benintendi signs a five year, $75 million contract.
* January 11, 2023: INF Hanser Alberto signs a minor-league deal with the team.
* February 20, 2023: INF Elvis Andrus signs to a one year, $3 million contact.

### Mike Clevinger abuse allegations

Weeks after Mike Clevinger signed with the White Sox, the mother of one of his children, Olivia Finestead, accused him of domestic violence and child abuse. Finestead alleged via her Instagram account that Clevinger had repeatedly beaten her as well as used chewing tobacco on their child. Major League Baseball announced that Clevinger was under investigation for these charges, with the White Sox adding that they had no knowledge of the investigation prior to signing Clevinger. Clevinger was ultimately not disciplined for these accusations, with the league adding in a statement that the pitcher had agreed to voluntarily submit himself to evaluations by the joint treatment boards.

### Liam Hendriks announces he has cancer

On January 8, 2023, White Sox closer Liam Hendriks announced that he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and was beginning treatment. Many former and current players, other teams, and personnel around Major League Baseball came out and showed their support for Liam. On April 3, just before the start in the White Sox Opening Day game against the San Francisco Giants, Hendriks appeared on the Guaranteed Rate Field video board stating that he was starting his last round of chemotherapy and was hoping to get back playing again soon. Two days after that announcement, Hendriks announced on his Instagram that he has finished chemotherapy.

## Regular season

* July 26: White Sox trade pitchers Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo López to the Los Angeles Angels for catcher Edgar Quero and LHP Ky Bush.
* July 28: White Sox trade pitcher Kendall Graveman to the Houston Astros for catcher Korey Lee. White Sox also trade pitchers Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly to the Los Angeles Dodgers for pitchers Nick Nastrini and Jordan Leasure and outfielder Trayce Thompson.
