Too much smoke surrounding a team that has promoted fielding butchers who have a single tool, the hit tool. So you do think the white Sox literally do not do basic infield drills. Got it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between taking infield and spending time on working isolation, short hop, footwork, fielding technique and working through each phase.
