Veteran Verrett Scott Waived From White Sox to Reds
The veteran infielder Verett Scott, once praised as a lifesaver for the White Sox last spring, has been waived to the Cincinnati Reds. Chicago sources note rookie William Hunnefield seized the shortstop job with such authority that Scott became expendable, while Cincinnati hoped Hunnefield’s surprises would shape their infield. The piece also highlights Bill Hunnefield’s confidence, past links with Montreal, and broader notes on Yankees manager Miller Huggins and owner Jacob Ruppert backing him, with praise for team management cooperation.
