One reason last decade's rebuild never quite worked out for the Chicago White Sox was that none of the young players drafted and acquired via trade fully developed into superstars.
The White Sox saw flashes of stardom from players such as Tim Anderson, Luis Robert Jr., Eloy Jimenez, Yoan Moncada, and Lucas Giolito. But it was often fleeting.
White Sox fans can only hope that this iteration of the rebuild does not suffer the same fate.
Injuries and underachieving led to the White Sox winning just one AL Central title (2021), making two playoff appearances, and recording just two playoff victories.
