## Resource

The White Sox just landed the top draft pick for the first time since 2005, snagging a UCLA standout in a historic move. Despite their recent struggles — including losing over 100 games — they didn’t get the pick by default thanks to MLB’s lottery rules and financial constraints. But this time, luck smiled on them. With their division-leading performance already hinting at a turnaround, adding a top-tier prospect could turbocharge their rebuild. Even with a loaded infield and a major leaguer already in the mix, the Sox may trade some of their other prospects to land a player who can help them win now — because in baseball, sometimes the best move is the smartest one.
