Chicago White Sox: It will be good when they get back
The Chicago White Sox are finally going to be good but the pause to Spring Training and delayed regular season is a cause for concern.
The Chicago White Sox have been rebuilding for quite some time. It was only a matter of time before they were a good baseball team. It looked like 2020 was going to be the beginning of a decade or more of good baseball on the South Side. That is still very much in play but we have to wait just a little bit longer. COVID-19, or better known as the Coronavirus, has turned the entire nation upside down over the past week.
The National Hockey League and National Basketball Association have paused their seasons with just a few weeks left in them. Major League Baseball followed by pausing Spring Training and delayed the start of the regular season. That came at the worst possible time for the Chicago White Sox. Obviously, baseball is the least important right now but it is fair to think about it in the back of your mind when isolating yourself from the world.
The good news is that fans can remember that the talent on this team isn’t going anywhere any time soon. They have studs in the organization that is going to be there for a very long time. They stripped their roster down to nothing so that they can acquire players like this and they have done a very good job. Players like Yoan Moncada, Lucas Giolito, Eloy Jimenez, and Tim Anderson should lead the way for a very long time.
Of course, we are going to have to wait just a bit longer. That is okay as long as the players in the organization take the proper precautions during this quarantine. They should do whatever is safe as far as staying in shape and baseball shape. It is probably as difficult to deal with as professionals as it is for fans, but it is all going to be okay when they get back. Every team in baseball is going to be dealing with the same structure no matter what the league decides.

The White Sox are going to be one of those fun teams to cheer for once they do get back. It might not be long that they are hated for being a constant contender but for now, they are a fun team. This COVID-19 issue might get a bit worse before it gets better, but things will get back to normal eventually. When they do and things are safe, the White Sox will be perfectly fine.
