3/09/24 | White Sox defense showing signs of improvement at spring training. The White Sox didn't make any flashy free-agent signings this past offseason. Coming off 2023's disappointing 61-101 campaign, which included lackluster hitting and field errors, the Sox added several veterans to stabilize the clubhouse and on the field. The Sox committed the seventh-most errors in the majors last season, had the sixth-lowest outs above average—which measures range—and the fifth-lowest ultimate zone rating, which measures how many runs a defender saved. Acquiring infielder Nicky Lopez in a trade from Atlanta and signing veterans Paul DeJong, Martin Maldonado, and Mike Moustakas helped the club establish consistency in the infield.
