I agree with you about the royals making moves, about losing Colon, and about the Ozzie hiring, but not the others. You shouldn't even predict what a white sox player can do in a season. I think Pollite can be good this season. This is one of the rare seasons Gordon didn't get injured in. He had 1 good season this year, and now it's like he's a great loss. He cannot stay healthy. I bet he'll get injured sometime this year in NY. (just like Osuna) Shingo is another Sullivan as far as I'm concerned. Both sidearmers, desceptive delieveries, and have a hellofa changeup. Everett isn't a big of a loss as you expect. Sure he's left handed and... The left handed/ right handed thing is so overrated. Ozzie's plan for this season is to run and be on time. Rowand has decent speed, can hit for power, and is better defensively. Everett can give you power numbers, but that's it. We already have power hitters on this team. We need speed, and rowand can provide us some and others. Alomar's teachings will be missed, but I think Harris/uribe can hold the position down. Who knows what they will do this season. Harris even said in the article (if you want to post it, say the word) that he likes it when people doubt him. They don't know his abilities, only he does. I believe that eigher him or Uribe can step up this season. There's always one or two players on the sox that step up big time every year. They might not be the same players year in and year out, but they do step up. Hopefully it can be harris, rowand, uribe, or/and garland.
