I don't hate josh harrison or anything but given our history a lukewarm prediction is that he won't be on the roster in august. (and he also may look like a great signing through end of april) Just like White Sox legend Jimmy Rollins I see a similar path for Harrison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cease leads our team in cy young votes. 4. Kopech leads our starters in ERA/FIP (just doesn't have a ton of innings) 5. Abreu has under 100 RBI 6. Vaughn bats .280/25/90 7. Eloy bats .300/40/100 8. Moncada continues doing what we've seen. Not a difference maker but good player. 9. Conforto is on the white sox and slashes .270/30/80 10. Sox win 100 games, go to the world series and lose to Dodgers 11. Romy has a 2.5 WAR season, but doesn't start until Harrison gets cut in July. Some of these don't seem particularly bold. #8? C'mon man, push it a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Giolito wins Cy Young; Cease finishes top 5. Moncada and Robert combine for 50 SB Eloy continues to be the player he was after returning from injury in 2021. Robert hits 40+ HR Moncada hits 20+ HR Hendriks' gopher ball problem gets worse Graveman sucks and reminds everyone of Scott Linebrink. Kelly never gets completely healthy. Kimbrel stays on the team all season and is dominant for stretches, but completely sucks for a month, dragging his entire season stats down. Keuchel is DFA in June, leading to Velasquez starting games. There is a 5th starter hole the entire season. Sox are unable to fill it because their minors suck. Josh Harrison puts up more WAR than Madrigal. Edited March 22, 2022 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise the bold prediction is the white sox, who've had the worst approach to an offseason I could fathom, won a trade with the Rays.

ChiSox59 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 White Sox sign Michael Conforto to a 4 year $80M deal with an opt out after year 2 and 3 before Opening Day. Eloy Jimenez hits 50 home runs. Michael Kopech is fucking stud and has an ERA and FIP below 3.25. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's wishful thinking — I believe he is the only White Sox player remaining (Engel and Lopez settled) as arbitration eligible. We've seen a couple extensions across the league this week. I don't think and never did think we're signing Conforto, so maybe, just maybe, they're working on something with Giolito to make this offseason at least somewhat redeemable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
