With a little more than 20% of the season in the books, it’s time to kick out a second edition of our value survey for 2021.
Last year, GM Rick Hahn basically didn’t help the White Sox, nor hurt them, with his moves. These value surveys, which should come every 18-19 days this season, attempt to identify where Hahn is getting bargains this season — as well as where he may not have spent wisely.
Through Sunday, almost 23% of the season has been played. The White Sox have 16 players providing positive surplus value (SV), 20 with negative value (including Jace Fry, Jimmy Cordero, Eloy Jiménez and Adam Engel, who have yet to play this season).
