2. Chicago White Sox

The Los Angeles Dodgers could do business with their Camelback Ranch co-tenants.

The Chicago White Sox are in a similar position as the Toronto Blue Jays, but they are further along in the process. Chicago took that next step to make the MLB Playoffs last season and can now build on that and turn it into a legitimate World Series run.

Quite frankly, the American League is pretty wide open in 2021. The Tampa Bay Rays got worse, the New York Yankees are the favorites but don’t have the greatest pitching staff, the Houston Astros got worse, the Oakland Athletics lost pieces and the Minnesota Twins cannot win a playoff game.

It sounds crazy to say now, but the White Sox could absolutely make a World Series run and could square off against their Camelback Ranch co-tenants in the Fall Classic. Perhaps the Dodgers are the ones that could help them get there.

The White Sox are one arm away from a really good starting five. Depending on how the year pans out, Price could be the fifth-best starter in Chicago, which is a really good position to be in if you are the White Sox.

With Price, Chicago’s rotation would consist of Lucas Giolito, Lance Lynn, Dallas Keuchel, Michael Kopech and David Price, with Dylan Cease as the just-in-case sixth option.

Chicago has money to spend (we saw that with the Liam Hendriks signing) and are only 15th in payroll at this point.
