With Chris Sale‘s spring training injury, there are multiple options for the Chicago White Sox to go in regards to their starting rotation.
One of those options includes using a four man rotation. I have heard some minor rumblings (so minor they would not register on the Richter scale) but it was enough to get me thinking could the club start 2015 with a four man starting rotation?
