White Sox: Should put more emphasis on homegrown position players
As the White Sox close out year two of the rebuild, there is one thing that the team and the fans should learn.
White Sox homegrown position players have had more success in 2018 than homegrown pitchers have had.
This has also been the case with successful rebuilding teams like the Houston Astros and the Chicago Cubs.
On the 2018 roster, one of the most successful players on the team was none other than a position player that the Sox drafted in the first round in 2013. Tim Anderson has spent his entire baseball career with the White Sox. And, in his third season in the Show, he set a team record as the first ChiSox shortstop with 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases in one season.
