For a team that nearly finished in last place in 2017, the Chicago White Sox didn’t have too bad of an offense. They were just outside the middle of the pack among MLB teams with a 94 wRC+, better than the AL East champion Boston Red Sox. However, that production didn’t entirely translate into runs. They were 12th in the American League with 706 runs scored, and finished second-to-last in home runs. Worse yet, they would have ranked even lower were it not for a late surge that saw them score 4.76 runs per game in September.
