AngelasDaddy0427 Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Ok sure i'll give it a go... CF- Rowand SS- Uribe 1B- Thomas LF- Lee 1B- Konerko RF- Escobar C- Davis 3B- Crede 2B- Harris Bench Gload 1B/OF Perez- OF Everett- OF/DH Valdez- IF Burke-C/3B/1B/OF Rotation Buherle Garcia Clement (FA Signing) Contreras Garland Bullpen Diaz Adkins Cotts Marte Politte Takasu Maybe not ideal but realistic. All we have to do is add Clement and we already know we wants to come here. Well that and pray that Escobar breaks out and has a .290 25+ 90+ season.

All we have to do is add Clement and we already know we wants to come here. Why do you think that everett will be on the bench and escobar will start in front of him? Escobar has basically proved nothing in the majors thus far to deserve the starting job. His minor league numbers were decent but nothing very great.

Gene Honda Civic Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Not what I would do, just how I think it'll end up. C - Davis/Burke DH - Frank/Gload/Everett 1B - Konerko 2B - Harris/Uribe SS - Uribe/Valdez 3B - Crede/Uribe LF - Everett CF - Rowand RF - Dye or Hidalgo Garcia Buehrle Somebody we got for Lee??? Contreras Garland Cotts Diaz Munoz Politte Marte Shingo Gload/Perez/Valdez/Counsell/Burke Payroll = $65M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesox91403 Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Harris-2B (breaks out in Spring Training and explodes in 2005, I'm waiting for the jeers) Rowand-CF Thomas- DH Lee-LF Konerko-1B Crede- 3B (breakout year in 2005) Escobar- RF (outplays Everett in Spring Training and wins the job) Uribe- SS (see Joe Crede, puts together a full season) Davis- C Gload Perez Everett Burke Valdez Nothing too different, same station to station right handed hitting team. Buehrle Garcia Russ Ortiz (FA signing, I have predicted this since the offseason began) Contreras Garland Shingo Marte Politte Adkins Cotts Osuna(FA signing, this is who I want. I wanted him back last year) Nothing special, will have a shot for The Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Escobar- RF (outplays Everett in Spring Training and wins the job) Only way escobar gets the starting job is if he hits about .600 in spring training next year and everett hits under .150. I am being serious to. Escobar does not bring much to any team as a starter at this point in his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 well i make this post in mind to what i think as the season progresses it will end up being DH: Frank Thomas C: Ben Davis 1B: Ross Gload 2B: Uribe or Harris whichevr earns it SS: Pedro Lopez( i think one of harris or uribe are really going to suck and KW already said it would be worth having him in there if for nothing else defense) 3B: Joe Rocking Crede RF: Everett and eventually Aaron Rowand CF: Rowand but eventually Brian Anderson LF: Carlos Lee Starting Rotation: Mark Buehrle(3.25era 17-10) Freddy Garcia(3.80era 15-12) Matt Clement/Odalis Perez(feel like its going to be 1 of them)cant predict era Jose Contreras(3.50-4.50era 14-15) John Garland(4.25era 16-12) Bench: Eventually Everett, Timo Perez, Uribe(or Willie), Burke, and Herbert Perry =p Bullpen: Shingo, Marte, Pollitte, Cotts, Diaz, Adkins, and Jorge Julio My hopes are that its perez over clement and i honestly think that this team can make run for the playoffs behind good pitching... Batting Order Willie Harris(.275-.285avg with a .360-.380obp)i like him more than uribe Aaron Rowand(.285-.315avg with a .350-.370obp)hopefully he works off last year Carlos Lee(.300-.320avg with a .350-.360obp)predicting Magglio Numbers Frank Thomas(.275-285avg with a .420obp)Frank is the man Carl Everett(.250-.320avg with a .340obp)All depends on himself he has the tools Ross Gload(.275-.315avg and a .350obp)he is the real deal and great defense Joe Crede(.235-.270avg with a .330obp)anything this year is an improvement Ben Davis(.180-.240avg with a .280obp)was a bust b4 us and still is a bust after us Pedro Lopez... never seen him play so dont know but cant imagine it being good Also id assume we get more than jorge julio but dont know what so didnt say anything.

whitesox91403 Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 The only thing that concerns me about Frank is that whenever he comes back from injuries he has a down year, IIRC. I'd have to look up for sure though. I hope he can explode this year though. He is the man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesox91403 Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 I'm partially wrong. In 2002, he only hit .252 but the power numbers were there. I remember Frank having another inury for some reason though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 yeah if frank has a down year that can seriously danger our chances of going to the playoffs... but if we sign odalis perez or clement that means our team will be based around pitching and our 1-5 could pitch a gem anyday even garland who we under appreciate. les put it this way with a seattle like offense from last year we could win with that pitching in our division it would be tough but can be done unless the twins find another great pitcher.

Guest JimH Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Will the sound of chirping crickets do? Well, we agree on this. I would love to be 100% wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
