The Chicago White Sox’s roster is starting to age a bit, and has had injury issues the past few years. Their farm system hasn’t been much help from an impact standpoint, but that could change with their top talents starting to break through.
Ages as of July 1, 2023
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 1 | 21 | Colson Montgomery | SS | 55 |
He’s a fringe-average runner, but projects well at short with easy actions and an above-average arm, and the bat may get him to the majors in short order.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 2 | 19 | Noah Schultz | LHP | 50 |
His slider projects well with late horizontal break and he’s been beyond the mod-90s with his fastball.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 3 | 24 | Oscar Colás | OF | 50 |
Colás raked in three stops in the minors last year, showing zone coverage and power, and it all works in the majors to the degree of an everyday bat.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 4 | 22 | Peyton Pallette | RHP | 50 |
An athletic delivery produces tremendous arm speed — a fastball into the upper-90s, with a plus curveball and developing changeup — all wrapping up into a potential frontline starter.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 5 | 20 | Cristian Mena | RHP | 45 |
Mena carries some physical projection into his second full year in pro ball, and can lean on his impact curveball.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 6 | 21 | Bryan Ramos | 3B | 45 |
Ramos brings all-star upside after producing power and contact in the minors his first two seasons.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 7 | 23 | Sean Burke | RHP | 45 |
Burke has three major-league pitches, a chance at a fourth (changeup), and is on the brink of the majors after if he can find the zone more often.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 8 | 22 | Jose Rodriguez | SS | 45 |
Rodriguez finds the barrel often and there’s projectable power in the swing.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 9 | 23 | Jonathan Cannon | RHP | 45 |
A projectable arm from Georgia already throwing a lot of strikes with four pitches, including a cutter and slider.
| RANK | AGE | PLAYER | POS | OFP |
| 10 | 23 | Norge Vera | RHP | 45 |
Vera is projectable and despite poor control has a chance, thanks to a big fastball and curveball.
