El ultimo tren en Chicago, Análisis-opinión / The last train in Chicago, Analysis-opinion | ESP-ENG
This season, the Chicago White Sox were the favorites to reach the pennant of the center of the American League, having a successful precedent from last season, and keeping most of their players, who together with their manager Tony La Russa, repeated for this season, guaranteeing on paper that they would again be the champions in this sector of the League.


EL ÚLTIMO TREN EN CHICAGO / THE LAST TRAIN IN CHICAGO

But in the course of this 2022, a series of factors would generate a series of factors that led the Illinois team to be very inconsistent in their game, being taken advantage of this by the Cleveland Rangers and the Minnesota Twins, who for much of the season have been leading this central division.
In a very long season, which gives for everything and everyone, those negative things that haunted the white pati team, would become that they themselves were filled with confidence in their game, not ceasing to insist and maintaining consistency in the field, added to that another adverse factor that would affect Chicago, is the health status of their manager, who was already showing signs that he could not be in charge of a professional baseball team.

To say that this was the main cause of the team's poor performance at the beginning of the season, we cannot know exactly, but in particular I think that something had to have affected, I have followed several games this season and with La Russa directing, and I have noticed his bad decisions, maybe it will be very easy to be on this side and criticize as I am doing at this time, but many like this humble servant, we agree with his mistakes, and more in a man with as much experience in this game as he has.
All this has led us to this point in the season, Tony's departure was imminent, giving that role to the Venezuelan Miguel Cairo, who was the one who always accompanied him from the bench, the record of the Venezuelan is positive, acting to the size of the circumstance and seeing the team better with him than with La Russa, registering positive balances of 13-6 since Tony left the reins, and 13-5 since Cairo was officially promoted as interim manager.

The performance with Miguel is evidently good, and they have in their own hands the access to the post-season, this a month ago seemed unthinkable, because the distances with respect to the second and first place were very wide, but at the beginning of this week it was only 3.5, in the home series that started on Tuesday against a direct rival such as the Cleveland Rangers, things favored the hosts but they were not talented enough to contain the troop directed by Terry Francona.
With only one game left to finish this series, this Thursday will be the last game and last chance to maintain real aspirations to reach the top of the ''Center'' of this division by the Chicago team, it looks a little uphill because they are direct rivals and the advantage is now extended to 6, there are still 2 weeks of season where anything can happen, but the way they are playing Cleveland, I think the last train has already passed in Chicago.

OPORTUNIDAD DESPERDICIADA / WASTED OPPORTUNITY
On the first day, Tuesday, they were unable to stop the Guardians in extra innings, and after so much struggle they were outplayed 10 to 7, which meant a moral blow to Cairo's team. The next day the aftermath of the previous day, in terms of fatigue and mood, was reflected in the final score and the defeat was a clear 8-2, thus wasting a very good opportunity to get closer to that place in this sector of the league, that would have allowed them to access the post-season.
