Puff piece? 🤔
Not all of these arms are going to make a big impact at the major league level. Injuries, sophomore slumps, and other potential obstacles could step in and take the legs out from under this group. But the possibilities presented by a bullpen like this are hard not to get excited about.

Optimism with caution is not exactly what I would describe as a Brooks Boyer sunshine and rainbows marketing piece. Should we march on the MLB Network studios for calling the White Sox the favorites in the AL?
Puff pieces are just unsupported conjecture. Fangraphs uses facts to support their conclusions.

Sorry, didn't mean to imply too many negative connotations. Just wanted to say "Hey look, Fangraphs is saying something positive about the Sox!""Hope...may be indulged in by those who have abundant resources...but those who stake their all upon the venture see it in its true colors only after they are ruined."

Fangraphs released their Zips projections for the upcoming season and it projects Giolito to have the highest WAR of any pitcher.
