While the Sox haven’t had a number one pick since Harold Baines, Chicago’s sports history is littered with elite first-rounders — from Patrick Kane’s Stanley Cup glory to Tom Harmon’s acting detour, Derrick Rose’s MVP brilliance followed by injury, and Elton Brand’s short-lived Bulls tenure. More recently, Connor Bedard and Caleb Williams have shown promise despite setbacks. Every number one pick carries hope, hype, and the unpredictable path to legacy — and this time, the Sox are back at the top of the draft.
