The Chicago White Sox really needed someone to step up and be the fifth starter. After acquiring Lance Lynn in a trade earlier in the offseason, some people thought they weren’t done. Well, it turned out that they would end up being done and try to use someone in-house to take that job. One of those candidates is Reynaldo Lopez. He went into spring training with a chance to be the fifth starter but it looks pretty bleak right now.
