Y2HH 29 Posted January 27, 2005 He does! Rocky "PUKE" Biddle. Randy Johnson (long hair version) should run around DDT'ing people who try to take his pictures. Randy "The Snake" Johnson.

WilliamTell 39 Posted January 27, 2005 Thomas and Garland, when Thomas has a good season, people around him also have one. If Garland is good this year, we can and should win the division. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peanut33tillman 4 Posted January 28, 2005 spod.. if this guy can revert to his playing days in 2003 we will have a serious stud manuvering LF and no im not talking bout el caballo..pitching-el duque it is vital he stays away from the injury hes been plagued by injuries in the past but this is a stud pitcher when healthy and a very good postseason pitcher...if we can make it anyways just my 2 cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whitesoxmurph 0 Posted January 28, 2005 Pods - If he can hit .300 and his OBP is .330+ that causes major problems for the defense trying to hold him on. The whole infield is worrying about the steal and leaning towards covering it. It also divides the pitchers attention from the batter. If Pods has a good year the players batting behind him reap the benifits and the whole offense has a good year. Pitcher? - I think that our starters are in good shape (Garland is a good #4 pitcher and a really good #5 pitcher). I also think our middle relievers and setup men are some of the best in the AL. That leaves our closer from the land of the rising sun to prove he can shut down the opposition through a whole season and I think he may be the key to the pitching staff.

SouthSideScraper 0 Posted January 28, 2005 I see a lot of talk about Thomas needing to produce. This is true, but now that Konerko has reached the 40 homer level, Thomas isn;t the only feared hitter in the club. But Konerko and Thomas aside, I agree 100% that it has to be Crede on offense and Contreras on defense. We know that when Thomas and Konerko get hot, that it seems to affect everyone, but Crede has great potential. If he could find his swing, then that's when the fireworks start. If he hadn't dragged ass last season, it could have been an entirely different team. At times last season, Konerko was carrying the team. That's just unacceptable. No one player should be counted on. Having added all of the new talent this year, we have excellent chances, but we also need to worry about the old talent. Crede fills the spot at third quite nicely. Hell, the best since Robin Ventura, but he needs to concentrate on his hitting this spring. Contreras on the other hand is one hell of a thrower, if he can find his spot and control his speed. The man can pitch lights out. If he gains better control, he;ll dominate. He can throw as hard as anyone. Actually, I don't want to say any one pitcher for defense. We need our starting rotation to be strong and consistent. I can't see pointing th finger at any one player. If our starters can get the job done, we won't have to rely on the bullpen for so much. Last year we seemd to ask for some miracles sometimes. The point is to look at your weaknesses and not your strenghts. We know that Thomas (if healthy) and Konerko will do well. We know that we have good pitchers on both the starting rotation and in the bullpen, but what we need to focus on is making sure that the guys who aren't keeping up to par do well. To bring out the old quote....a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LosMediasBlancas 0 Posted January 28, 2005 I know nothing is a sure thing, but overall, a lot of this team is kind of a question mark. Pods, if he can't get it done, it's gonna be ugly. El Duque, could be an 18 game winner, could get hurt and a total crushing blow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnthraxFan93 0 Posted January 28, 2005 For the White Sox to have a World Title-type season, it is vital that Timo(from the offense), and Diaz from the pitching staff, to have great seasons and for KW to get fired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvilJester99 239 Posted January 28, 2005 I am going with Pods and Shingo...I think he has to show it again. I am sure he will be just fine but I think a lot will be riding on him since he is our closer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
