MLB: Chicago White Sox Fire Sale

Kenny Williams of the Chicago White Sox.

Rick Hahn & Kenny Williams were extended this offseason, inheriting a roster with overpaid Free Agents, virtually no farm system & failed draft selections. The White Sox are one of the loan Front Offices that continues to besmirch advanced statistics. Basically, Money Ball represented a new way of thinking, an analytic process that has further evolved, and engulfed 28 other Front Offices. Building an MLB Roster now requires statistical reverence, albeit it's applied to varying degrees across baseball. But not for the Chicago White Sox, who are traditionalists in the truest sense.
