Former Chicago White Sox right-hander Lance Lynn believes his old team is lacking in comparison to every other MLB franchise.

"Chicago is behind everybody. It's just the honest truth," Lynn told "Foul Territory." "There's a lot of great people there, but when it comes to top-to-bottom organizationally, like even minor leagues coming up - I went down and spent a month rehabbing my knee there, and I stayed with the Triple-A team.

"Just seeing the way that things were going about. ... There definitely needs to be some changes. And there still probably needs to be some changes just by going off some of the things I've heard and seen."

Lynn, who retired at the beginning of April after a 13-year career, pitched for the White Sox between 2021-23. He finished as a 2021 AL Cy Young finalist after helping the team win the AL Central that season.

The 37-year-old's comments come as the White Sox dropped their eighth straight game after a 2-2 start to the season.

Chicago set a modern-day record with 121 losses in 2024.
