Chicago White Sox fall one spot in The Athletic’s Week 1 MLB power rankings
The Chicago White Sox have had a bit of a bumpy road to begin the regular season. After being swept by the Milwaukee Brewers to begin the season, they secured a 9-4 win on Monday in the series-opening game against the Miami Marlins. One outlet released their Week 1 power rankings, so let’s take a look at where the White Sox wound up.
The Athletic’s power rankings have the Chicago White Sox ranked 29th after Week 1
The Athletic’s power rankings include a vote from their selection committee to decide how the order would be. For Chicago, they dropped one spot from the preseason record to 29th. Levi Weaver wrote the section for the team and explained poetically that the team will do better on the mound.
“Could the White Sox finish the season with a half-dozen pithcers wearing double-digit ERAs? I dunno, sure. Why not. The reason it’s meaningless is because – as the White Sox have so frequently reminded their fans in recent years – we are on an infinitesimally small rock, floating through some distant corner of a universe that we have barely begun to understnad. We grow wiser as we grow more fragile, but, compared to the age of rocks and oceans, we no sooner begin our time on this planet than we are whisked away into the arms of a mystery.
“What does any of it even mean? How can we do anything at all but hold each other, look around in bewilderment at the whole construct, and thank our fellow man for being here to see it with us? So no, you can’t make me care about the ERAs of White Sox pitchers.”
Below are the bottom five teams on The Athletic’s power rankings, with the average rankings included:
- Minnesota Twins (25.0)
- Los Angeles Angels (27.3)
- Washington Nationals (27.3)
- Chicago White Sox (27.8)
- Colorado Rockies (30.0)
The White Sox have two more games in Miami against the Marlins before heading up north for a three-game set against the Toronto Blue Jays. It will be interesting to see how they do and if they can climb up next week’s rankings.
