This guy is a very good baseball writer:
24. Chicago White Sox
Few GMs in recent memory have moved as aggressively to overhaul a rebuilding team’s lineup as Rick Hahn did this winter for the White Sox. Hahn took advantage of Arizona GM Kevin Towers’s burning need to dump most of his prospects, snatching 22-year-old third baseman Matt Davidson for closer Addison Reed and 25-year-old center fielder Adam Eaton in a three-team trade that sent Tony Batista 2.04 to Arizona. The big move was the six-year, $68 million deal Hahn gave to Jose Abreu, a Cuban slugger who comes in with some question marks, but also immense upside. Those moves, coupled with a young rotation led by 24-year-old, Cy Young–caliber lefty Chris Sale, could make the White Sox fun to watch on many nights, and a welcome change from the Astros’ tanktastic approach to rebuilding.
