Chicago White Sox: 2020 coronavirus pandemic-shortened season outlook

What to know about the team going into the 2020 season

The Chicago White Sox made a few key offseason signings to add power to its lineup and now boast an exciting team that could be ready to take on the challenges of a shortened season.

The White Sox signed catcher Yasmani Grandal and slugger Edwin Encarnacion in the offseason. Both players have the ability to pack a serious punch in the lineup. Chicago also added Dallas Keuchel to its rotation. Keuchel spent a lame-duck year with the Atlanta Braves in 2019.

Don’t forget, the White Sox have one of the most exciting players in baseball in Tim Anderson and already have Jose Abreu, who has been known to hit a few dingers.

The White Sox will be without Michael Kopech, who opted out of the season because of coronavirus concerns.

Chicago was 29-31 through 60 games last season.
