The Chicago White Sox will be one of the key franchises to watch this season. The reason why they should command attention across the league is because they might blow it all up before the trade deadline.

The White Sox are loaded with intriguing talent who are either untouchable on the trade market like Luis Robert or stars like Dylan Cease who could find themselves on the move.

Those players will not only command the eye of MLB teams but should find themselves as main targets when it comes to the 2024 fantasy baseball season.

Robert and Cease should find themselves selected early in fantasy baseball drafts, but they are not the only Chicago players who could provide value for managers. There are many players whom fantasy managers could see quality production from later in drafts.

Here's a look at three Chicago White Sox players to target in 2024 fantasy baseball drafts

#1 Eloy Jimenez

Jimenez might be one of the most frustrating players in fantasy baseball over the last few seasons.

The hard-hitting outfielder is elite when he's in the lineup, but the problem is his lack of availability. In his five-year career, Jimenez has only played over 100 games in a season twice.

Nevertheless, this lack of availability might have led to fantasy managers avoiding him when it comes to draft season. That could benefit managers who gamble on Jimenez, as the upside is elite. He's a top-25 outfielder if he stays healthy.

#2 Gregory Santos

The Chicago White Sox have made many moves this offseason to return to contention this season or at least change the team's culture.

That bodes well for Santos, who's expected to receive a share of the team's save opportunities, which could also help managers with their strikeout ratios, as he has a 10.61 K/9 for the upcoming season, according to CBS Sports.

#3 Jared Shuster

Shuster is a name some fantasy baseball managers may be familiar with. The former first-round pick was considered a sleeper last season but received only 52.2 innings in 2023, posting a 4-3 record with a 5.81 ERA and 30 strikeouts.

Those numbers left much to be desired, though. He has since been traded to the Chicago White Sox as part of a five-player trade with the Atlanta Braves.

It remains to be seen what role he will play for Chicago, but if he secures a starting role with his new club, he could provide value to fantasy managers late in drafts if he can continue to improve at the MLB level.
