Munetaka Murakami Joins White Sox, Faces Velocity Challenge

Munetaka Murakami, a significant acquisition for the Chicago White Sox, brings immense power but faces a challenge with pitches over 92 mph, a common velocity in MLB. While projections anticipate a .232/.342/.449 slash line with 30 homers and 80 RBIs, his expected "abysmal" fielding significantly impacts his overall WAR. Murakami aims to adjust to major league velocity and contribute to the White Sox.
