Like the opening day of school, the first day of the White Sox rebuild was full of anticipation and anxiety.
Sure, the Sox have been making moves since trading Chris Sale last December, and had just swapped Jose Quintana, Todd Frazier, David Robertson and Tommy Kahnle for prospects in the last week alone, so technically the rebuild has been in progress for quite a while.
But until Yoan Moncada jogged out to second base at 7:08 p.m. Wednesday night at Sox Park, there was really nothing much to do but wait and wonder if all the hype was merited.
