whitesox91403 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 The Sox, obviously, are sitting at a record of 27-11. With 124 games to go, if they played .500 ball from here on out, they would finish with 89 wins. That's playing .500 ball!!!! I'm optimistic. I, just truly believe that they may regress some, but will play well above .500. Am I way off here? Tell me what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 It's weird - everything about this team screams "85 wins" to me, but now that they've jumped out to the fast start, without the meat of the order hitting all that much, and with Big Frank probably coming back right after the first round of Interleague play, I can see this team in the low-to-mid 90's. Barring, of course, the annual catastrophic injuries to the exact players they can least afford to lose.... PLEASE not this year.....

But, you know Kenny, never afraid to make the trade to get what they need. I'm enjoying this now, but because of the fast start, even 95 wins is only 6 games over .500 from here on out. I think it's very reachable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 I'll be happy with going a little over .500 for the rest of the way, should probably be just good enough to make the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
