What can White Sox fans really expect from Eloy Jimenez in the early going?

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Opening Day is here. Eloy Jimenez is here.

The arrival of the 2019 season has brought with it the arrival of the White Sox top-ranked prospect, and everyone is very — and justifiably — excited.

"I think it shows the addition of another potential cornerstone-type player for us," general manager Rick Hahn said Thursday at Kauffman Stadium. "We saw the excitement when (Yoan) Moncada came up. We saw the excitement when (Michael) Kopech came up last year. There will be other debuts over the course of this summer and over the next year-plus that will have similar type of excitement behind them, a deserved excitement behind them.
