March 1, 20197 yr Because what else is there to do but b****? Assuming no more major league additions, here is my shot at the OD roster: Catcher: Castillo 1B: Abreu 2B: Yolmer SS: Anderson 3B: Moncada LF: Palka CF: Engel RF: Jay DH: Alonso BN: Leury (out of options), Rondon (out of options), McCann Rotation: Rodon, Lopez, Nova, Giolito, Banuelos (out of options) Bullpen: Colome, Herrera, Jones, Fry, Frare, Covey, Hamilton, Minaya (out of options) DL: Santana Eloy, Delmonico, Cordell and the array of bullpen arms (Ruiz, Vieria, Bummer, Fulmer, Burr, Burdi, Stephens, Medeiros, etc. start in the minors)
March 1, 20197 yr God that team is terrible. Might even be worse than last year if it's even possible.
March 1, 20197 yr Author Just now, flavum said: What’s the DL? (I’m so new school. Yeah right.) Thats gonna take some getting used to.
March 1, 20197 yr Jay, Anderson, Abreu, Alonso, Palka, Castillo, Moncada, Sanchez, Delmonico Garcia, McCann, Guyer Rodon, Nova, Lopez, Giolito, Covey until Santana is ready Banuelos, Fry, Minaya, Bummer, Ruiz, Jones, Herrera, Colome Probably have the pen wrong, but who cares?

March 1, 20197 yr I will guess that the White Sox still end up trading for OF Joc Pederson This is wishful thinking because it doesn't include a really bad baseball player who seems like a roster lock for some reason. 1. Jon Jay CF 2. Yoan Moncada 3B 3. Jose Abreu 1B 4. Yonder Alonso DH 5. Joc Pederson RF 6. Daniel Palka LF 7. Welington Castillo C 8. Tim Anderson SS 9. Yolmer Sanchez 2B Bench C James McCann INF Jose Rondon OF Brandon Guyer 1. Carlos Rondon 2. Reynaldo Lopez 3. Lucas Giolito 4. Ivan Nova 5. Manny Banuelos Bullpen Alex Colome Kelvin Herrera Nate Jones Juan Minaya Ian Hamilton Dylan Covey Jace Fry Caleb Frare Ervin Santana starts on the DL. Eloy Jimenez joins the team on Friday April 26th.
March 1, 20197 yr I know it's pretty much a foregone conclusion, but I hate that Yolmer is gonna be the everyday 2B. We already know what we have in him. I'd rather give someone like Jose Rondon reps.
March 1, 20197 yr Rodon, Lopez, Giolito, Nova,Banuelos Covey,Fry,Frare,Burr,Minaya,Jones,Colome Herrera Castillo,McCann Abreu,Alonso Yolmer Moncada Anderson, Leury Jay,Engel Palka,Guyer I need a drink after typing out these names

March 1, 20197 yr 1B; Who 2B: What 3B: I don't know LF: Why CF: Because Pitcher: Tomorrow C : Today SS: I don't give a darn. http://www.baseball-almanac.com/humor4.shtml Thanks to Abbott and Costello if you don't know wtf I'm doing. Edited March 1, 20197 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside

March 1, 20197 yr Seeing these rosters has put me into an early friday Bourbon shopping spree. MUST. STOCK. UP. NOW.
March 1, 20197 yr No one thinks that Santana breaks camp with the team? I know he was only signed to a minor league deal, but I assumed he would be part of the rotation. There was no real reason to sign him unless he's going to be an innings eater or trade bait for this season.

The bullpen alone makes it better than last year, and that's assuming nobody improves (Moncada, Giolito, etc.)

Yolmer could have a couple 3 WAR seasons if he could improve his offense just a little. He's a better player than rondon imo. And he has a chance to be a above average everyday starter.

Makes sense for the Sox to roll with Banuelos to start and see if they have anything and let Santana get some reps in AAA first (assuming his contract allows for that). Could always just put Banuelos in the pen over someone like Frare as well.
