Summary
The Chicago White Sox pull off a major win in the 2026 MLB Draft, selecting top prospect Roch Cholowsky—the highly-touted UCLA shortstop who turned down pro ball to focus on college. After a stellar sophomore season with 23 homers and a strong all-around game, Cholowsky’s fit with the White Sox feels perfect, especially after he toured the city and loved it. The team’s own turnaround—from worst-to-first in the AL Central with a 49-45 record—makes this pick even more electrifying. Now, the real test begins: can Cholowsky translate his college dominance into MLB success and help carry this resurgent franchise forward?
