The Chicago White Sox have started the season at 2-2, showcasing a decisive 9-0 win against the Minnesota Twins, pushing their record to .500. The team's offense has looked promising, particularly with home runs from players like Andrew Benintendi, Michael A. Taylor, and Eloy Jiménez, marking two games with eight or more runs already, a significant improvement over last year. The pitching staff has been impressive, with Martin Perez pitching six hitless innings, yielding a total of 19 strikeouts across the first four games. The new manager, Will Venable, has instilled a sense of aggression on the base paths, as evidenced by recent double steals. Despite some skepticism about sustained success, the early returns indicate the White Sox could be competitive this season.

Spring training is heating up with key updates impacting fantasy baseball rosters. Gunnar Henderson was removed from a game with a right side injury but is not expected to miss significant time, offering optimism to his drafters. Shohei Ohtani is set to make his spring debut, raising excitement among fans. Bryce Harper returns to action after an injury, and Felix Bautista is impressing with his performance. Additionally, Andrew Benintendi's fractured hand presents a dilemma for the White Sox while the Royals reveal plans for their bullpen, making Lucas Giolito a target in drafts.
