The Chicago White Sox have a great young player in Nick Madrigal.

A lot of people were confused when the Chicago White Sox drafted Nick Madrigal with the 4th overall pick in the 2018 MLB Prospects Draft out of Oregon State University. He was a contact-hitting second-baseman that has a great glove in the field. It was a little strange because, at the time, Yoan Moncada was the second baseman of the future.
