3 White Sox players that should be cut before August arrives

The Chicago White Sox are a horrific baseball team that nobody is proud of. In fact, most people that love this team are straight-up ashamed.

Things have gotten really bad this year. They are not expected to be in the playoffs now and the future looks as bleak as ever.

This was supposed to be the window of success that White Sox fans dream of. Instead, they are just a massive disappointment in every single way. 

Now, it is time for the MLB Trade Deadline. There are some really good teams that will be looking for upgrades at certain positions. The White Sox be able to help as sellers.

They have a lot of players that could be traded. They also have a lot of players that could be cut because they have played so poorly. That would absolutely benefit the team. 

These are the three players that the White Sox should cut before August begins:

1. Aaron Bummer

The White Sox should not have Aaron Bummer pitching anymore.

Aaron Bummer has been terrible for the Chicago White Sox over the last year or so. They should cut him right now so he doesn’t have to keep hurting their chances to win.

At one point, Bummer was absolutely one of the best relievers in baseball. He helped the Sox have an outstanding bullpen for a few years there. 

Now, however, he has no business pitching for them. He has gotten worse and worse while playing for the White Sox this year. 

Now, if Bummer were to be cut and signed with another team, expect him to come out strong again. Other teams have better recourses than the White Sox to help people which is sad. 

2. Elvis Andrus

Elvis Andrus doesn't need to be with the Chicago White Sox anymore.

The Chicago White Sox signed Elvis Andrus at the end of 2022 to replace Tim Anderson who was out for the year. He did amazing things for them when they really needed it.

Although it wasn’t enough, they loved what they got from him as an individual. So much so that they signed him once again late in the off-season. 

The idea was to have Andrus help out with second base and play shortstop on Anderson’s off days. Unfortunately, Andrus has been pretty bad this year. It has been nothing close to what he was at the end of 2022.

If the White Sox were to cut Andrus right now, there is a chance that not a single team would consider it. That is a sign that the White Sox should move on.

There are plenty of other players on the roster and in the organization that would be better for the team at second base. They can’t get much worse than Andrus but at least the future ceiling is higher.
