CHICAGO — Anyone who looks at the calendar and the standings in the American League Central division knows that a big decision is looming for White Sox general manager Rick Hahn.His club is in the midst of a second-straight disappointing year and, after Tuesday's loss, currently 13 games under .500. Thanks to a mediocre American League Central division, the White Sox are only seven games out of first place - with all of this happening when they should be in a championship window. Now Hahn has to decide whether he closes that in 2023 and becomes a seller for the first time since the end of the last decade. He could also keep faith that the club could make a turnaround, deciding to make a deal to strengthen the current group.Either way, Hahn knows he's got a critical evaluation coming up."We've got big decisions to make by the end of this month or August 1st," said Hahn on Tuesday before the White Sox loss to the Blue Jays at Guaranteed Rate Field.
