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.

After years of irrelevance, an underdog White Sox team took two of three from a high-level Cubs team. The result was a statement that this team is for real, and the south side was no longer a punchline.
