As the Chicago White Sox gear up for another spring training showdown against the Dodgers, there's a lot to unpack from the latest game thread. Shane Smith is set to take the mound, and while his stats show promise with only one hit allowed in 3.2 innings, the four earned runs raise some eyebrows. Is this a sign of a deeper issue with control, or just a spring training anomaly?

Luis Robert Jr. is also making waves with an impressive 1.186 OPS, but with the regular season looming, how much pressure is he really under to perform? Is he auditioning for the White Sox or for the other 29 teams?

And let's not forget about Mike Tauchman, who seems to be struggling with a .150 batting average. What does this mean for his chances of making the roster?

With the season just around the corner, what are your bold predictions for the White Sox? Will Shane Smith solidify his spot in the rotation, or will he be a liability? Can Luis Robert Jr. maintain his momentum, or will the pressure get to him?
