Molto Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 85-86 wins. but a good 85-86 wins. a more consistent team, a smarter team, a fundamental team, and a team with more energy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 We've got to win the division to make the playoffs. We ain't gonna be the wildcard. Too many teams better than us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'd say 80-95 wins. We have a long range because you just don't know what to expect. I can gage something like this better when I know what the exact roster is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'm not gonna get my hopes up. Felt good about 2001 and even better about 2002 only to have my hopes crushed early on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 The Twins are lousy, imo. They overachieved most of the year, but their pitching isn't that strong and neither is their bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 they are going to go through a major overhaul just like cleveland lol.. so the division is ours for the taking....hey its my dream so leave me to it ok.....lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 Well, they are the one team with a more pathetic owner then JR and you could really see him screw that club up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 hey they dont have the shelf life of a regular twinkie.. that "stay fresh wrapper" they play in will spring a leak sooner or later......then we sneak in and take the division back ....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 We'll take the divsion from Spring and just whoop them good. The Sox are back, and they are giong to win the Central for years, and that ain't the only thing they are going to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 i sure do hope your crystal ball is right jas.. i want to see a world series here before i die....the alternative is... me ashes spread out all over the field waiting on one....lol.. i think i would enjoy it more actually watching it from a seat and not at the pearly gates....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 the twins are not lousy. Are they really gonna have an overhaul? That would be nice. We could use Jacque J., Guzman and others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could use Jacque J., Guzman and others. Yeah they are. They're winning percentage against the playoff teams is .333. The only reason they are where they are is because the White Sox were lousier for most of the season. Also, the Twinkies beat up on the teams that the White Sox should have beat up on too (KC, Detroit, Cleveland, Tampa, etc). I think I heard that almost half of the 2002 Twins starting lineup are FA's at seasons end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 like i said they will be doing what cleveland did this year.. dump dump dump.... weve got it made in the shade..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could use Jacque J., Guzman and others. A lot of it is sarcasm on our part hoping, but they do have the type of owner that would try to pull something like that. They have some good young players ,but when I look at some of the stats they aren't all that magnificient and they have really overachieved in the pitching department, especially that ever so important bullpen area.

Chisoxfn Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Lets Compare the Lineups Twins Jacque Jones-lf Christian Guzman-ss Torri Hunter-cf David Ortiz-DH Corey Koskie-3rd Mientkevitz-1st Kielty or Mohr-rf Pyrzinksi-c Rivas-2nd Thats kind of what its like, but they do change it up at times. White Sox Jimenez-2nd Manos-ss Thomas-DH Maggs-rf Konerko-1st Caballo-lf Crede-3rd Rowand-cf Olivo-c Imo, our lineup is a whole lot better, of course offense isn't the only part of the game. Defensively they are damn good, but I think we are pretty good defensively, especially if Harris is playing 2nd and Jimenez is at short. The pitching is definately what it comes down to next season. Whoever is better, wins, no questions asked and I think that will be us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan420 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 im hope it is the sox and i hope we get a top nouch starter so that we can have a good 1-2 punch and a decent 3 with garland and then wright,biddle,foulke,rauch,ritchie and maybe a couple others need to battle it out for the 4-5 spot i dont think wright has earned himself the 4 spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Seriously if they are gonna lose some players we better be the ones to pick some up. They got some good talent. We could use Guzman, Jacque J, etc. I still think the Twins will beat us out next year unless they have the overhaul you suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
