By balance, I mean that we can manufacture runs as well as hit the longball.
The thread that I originally brought this up in is gone for good, so I'll make this point again -- the White Sox are horrible at creating runs outside of the longball. It's pretty much the only way they can score at all. In fact, the only team in the AL that has a higher proportion of their run scoring come from the homerun is the Texas Rangers, who can be excused for that since they're damn close to the record for homeruns in a season. Just because their manager talks about "manufacturing runs" doesn't mean they actually do it.
