Are The White Sox About To Be Buyers?

Ahead of schedule, but completely legit. The White Sox have the offense, but to truly compete for a postseason berth and beyond they are going to need more pitching. What can this team acquire, and will they make such a move? It seemed inconceivable a few months ago, but this front office needs to start thinking about buying at the trade deadline.

The White Sox may have some prospects in their system as well as the #1 pick in the draft, but should we still consider them in the "rebuild" phase? As a winning team forms earlier than expected it may be time to look at the next step. Rather than wish on future talent, Sox fans may be better served by looking at what is playing for them right now.

White Sox Manager Must Improve With His Team
