SoxFest 2016: Fans buzzing about team's offseason additions

Share

For the second-straight offseason White Sox GM Rich Hahn made a splash to help improve the ball club through trades and free agency.

And While last year's additions didn't work out as well as White Sox fans would have liked, the team's fanbase is still optimistic heading into the 2016 season.

Fans were buzzing about new third baseman Todd Frazier and second baseman Brett Lawrie as the team's annual SoxFest kicked off at the Hilton Chicago on Friday evening.

"I hope they all contribute in some way," one White Sox fan told CSNChicago.com. "Obviously Todd Frazier is the easy one to say. Another bat behind (Jose) Abreu. Hopefully (Adam) LaRoche can get back to the LaRoche ways and help out the middle of the order. Lawrie is going to solidify the infield. I think one big thing that we needed was infield and catching, and we got better defensively. I think that will help out a lot in the tough AL Central."
