The White Sox window opened in 2020 making the playoffs for the first time in 12 years. While they were bounced in the first round, the talent is real and good. What is also encouraging is that there is still talent in their minor league system. Andrew Vaughn and Michael Kopech should not only provide depth in 2021 but both could be major contributors. Assuming Kopech is healthy, he could fall behind Lucas Giolito in the rotation to start the season. Garrett Crochet and Zack Burdi both could be future closers and Nick Madrigal led the league in hitting while he was up.
Sure, the system gets thin after the first 7 or 8 players, but so many of the players have already been promoted that the lack of depth is warranted and expected.
