Lance Lynn went on the Foul Territory show to shed light on how and why the White Sox have gotten off to a suboptimal start.
Lynn suggested a culmination of possible factors, but none more glaring than the newness of the coaching staff and the drastic changes in their day-to-day operations.
The White Sox have an entirely new staff. They retained three coaches from the previous staff, while Pedro Grifol and his newly hired staff are dominating the new clubhouse. For Lynn, he understands his play this season has been part of the problem. He currently holds a 7.92 ERA over just 26.1 innings pitched. He's walked a whopping 13 batters over his five starts, too.
The White Sox have the third-worst bullpen ERA in baseball, sitting at 6.10. They've also struggled to find a permanent closer in place for Hendriks. Reynaldo López has primarily taken the reigns, and while he's had a few solid outings, he's also pitched some poor ninth innings.
