Grady Sizemore Named White Sox Offensive Coordinator as Coaching Staff Finalized

First-year manager Will Venable retains Sizemore and announces a mix of returning and new coaches for the 2025 season.

Grady Sizemore, who served as the White Sox interim manager in 2024, transitions to the newly created role of offensive coordinator under new manager Will Venable.
Sizemore will focus on offensive strategy, lineup construction, and game planning to help improve the team’s performance after a record-breaking 121-loss season.
Will Venable, in his first year as manager, has retained most of the 2024 coaching staff while adding Walker McKinven as bench coach and Joel McKeithan as assistant hitting coach.
McKinven, previously with the Milwaukee Brewers, brings experience in run prevention and game planning, while McKeithan joins after two seasons as the Cincinnati Reds' hitting coach.
The coaching staff reflects a balance of continuity and fresh perspectives, aiming to rebuild the White Sox following their historically poor 2024 season.
