The middle of the country is not represented, and this may leave fans of the White Sox unsure of where to put their allegiance for this year’s Fall Classic.
However, I think that White Sox fans should root for former team ace Chris Sale and the Boston Red Sox. If Sale pitches well that doesn’t mean that the White Sox have lost the trade.
The ChiSox winning the trade is contingent on how well the players they acquired perform in their careers, namely – Yoan Moncada, Michael Kopech, and Luis Alexander Basabe – not on Sale performing badly.
