The Chicago White Sox were recently ranked at 17th of 30 on a preseason power rankings list. Despite the fact that they have added significant firepower to their squad and will clearly be in playoff contention this season, they are not yet the team with the target on their backs.

The Chicago White Sox likely have most of the arms they need to be World Series contenders within the next few years.
