Analysis:

Lindstrom and Nate Jones enter camp as the two probable favorites for the closer role. Jones may have the more electric arm, but Lindstrom has more experience and may be more reliable in the long-run. The White Sox have historically waited a while to name their closer when there's a competition in camp, so we may not know the results of this for a while.
