## Resource

The White Sox are quietly building a global talent pipeline, with scouts David Keller and Gene Watson just returning from a 12-day Japan trip focused on future stars. This isn’t about quick fixes—it’s a long-term strategy to unearth international gems that could reshape the roster in 3-5 years. Their work is already paying off: the signing of Japanese superstar Munetaka Murakami has injected star power and championship grit into the team. With a dedicated international department and eyes on both Pacific Rim prospects and domestic talent, the White Sox are laying the groundwork for sustained success while chasing this year’s playoff dreams.
