The Chicago White Sox are amidst one of their busiest offseasons ever and there still might be a few more moves to be made.

That big improvement could lead to a postseason appearance for the first time since 2008 if they’re good enough. On top of being vastly improved, they play in one of the weakest divisions in all of Major League Baseball. They have multiple players that are under cheap long term control that they hope will help lead them to the promised land. It isn’t above anyone to think that this team has its eyes set on winning the World Series sometime during this window of the core’s prime.

There are a lot of good players on this team that is going to supplement the core between now and the end of it all. Guys like Yoan Moncada, Tim Anderson, Eloy Jimenez, and Lucas Giolito are here to stay. There are also going to be some good players that are eventually shipped out because there simply isn’t enough room for them on the MLB roster but they are too good for the minors.

These three players could still be dealt for that reason:
