As it turns out, Jose Ramirez wasn't the first player to hit Tim Anderson this season, Yasmani Grandal was. The Chicago White Sox teammates reportedly got into a physical altercation just before the All-Star break. The White Sox season has been an absolute disaster on the field and is apparently just as bad in the clubhouse. Talkin' Baseball shared the report of the fight between Anderson and Grandal on Twitter. Talkin’ Baseball@TalkinBaseball_Yasmani Grandal wanted to leave the day before the All-Star break (he wasn't in the lineup) and Tim Anderson said (paraphrased): "Fuck him.

If Grandal had just complained without a physical response this would be a non-issue. It also shows Anderson was trying to speak as a leader on the team. Grandal denied that this incident happened at all after reports of it dominated the headlines.

They are fighting on and off the field, but not for wins as a team. Manager Pedro Grifol doesn't seem to be steering the ship in the way any fan would want. With the Cleveland Guardians and Minnesota Twins running away with the division, the White Sox are becoming a laughing stock.
