The Chicago White Sox endured a dismal 2024 season, finishing near the bottom of the rankings for teams with players aged 26 and under. Yahoo Sports' Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman rated the White Sox at 28th, primarily due to the disappointing performances of their young position players, including Korey Lee, Lenyn Sosa, Miguel Vargas, and Colson Montgomery, who collectively earned a paltry 1-out-of-10 score.

Despite Montgomery's status as a top prospect, his .214 batting average and .710 OPS in Triple-A raised doubts about his immediate impact. The other three players combined for less than a marginal WAR, signaling a need for significant improvement in their development. On the pitching side, the team's young hurlers also struggled, receiving a score of 2-out-of-10. The White Sox's only positive takeaway was their revamped farm system, boasting strong prospects acquired via trades, which offers a glimmer of hope for future competition.
