CHICAGO -- For months now, Chicago White Sox fans have been hearing about their club's plans to create a brighter future with a lot of young men they mostly know from reading prospect rankings.
That changed on Wednesday when Yoan Moncada morphed from theory to practice, making his Chicago debut on, of all things, "Game of Thrones" night at Guaranteed Rate Field. And the opponent was no joke: The high-flying Los Angeles Dodgers.
Moncada was picked up early in the day from the airport by first baseman Jose Abreu, whom he's known since he was 15 years old.
