Deep Dive: Free Agent First Basemen/Designated Hitters

“Deep Dive” focuses on the depth of each position in the White Sox organization. Each position will break into five parts:

  1. Depth in the Rookie Leagues (Dominican through Arizona)
  2. Depth in A-Ball (Kannapolis through Winston-Salem)
  3. Depth in the higher levels (Birmingham Charlotte)
  4. Under the Radar-type detail on one of the White Sox players
  5. Free-agent options

First base is arguably the deepest position in the White Sox organization — at least at the major league level. With one year and $22 million remaining on José Abreu’s contract, the team still has viable alternatives who could man the position for 2022 and beyond.
